What's new

Better player right now: Whiteside or Gobert?

I'm really curious to see how Whiteside plays next season. I am expecting his level of play to go down quite a bit as he is in a contract year. Like others have mentioned he is a stat stuffer and is probably going all out for a max deal, and then will settle down and get lazy.

I take Rudy even though I was hoping he would be playing better this season. He is younger and way more of a team player
 
Right Now: Hassan Whiteside

Could Rudy be better in 3 years, sure. Rudy is a liability on the offensive end. He has trouble catching passes in the paint if it's not a lob. Turns it over too much for a big as well. Rudy needs to put on 25 pounds and become an actual imposing figure instead of just being tall and having long arms.

These are just my uneducated thoughts.

Nobody is quoting any stats. Hmmmm.

Look at their per 36 #'s, it's a landslide in Whitesides favor.. He's also better at handling low passes, he improved his FT% by a sizeable margin this season..

Whiteside's block % is 9.8 that'd be the 4th highest season all time, only bested by Manute Bol in 85-86, 86-87 and 88-89

Last time I looked into it, the advanced stats for defense showed Rudy in much more favorable light. Opponent shot% at rim, etc.
