Barkley said it best last night - Even though he went for 20/20, you couldn't always feel his impact on the game, and at times Robin Lopez outhustled and outplayed him.

He's certainly not on the same level as KAT, AD, or Cousins, as one TNT graphic had him that night.

Just like Kevin Love in his Minnesota days, it's easy to stuff stats when you plant yourself next to the basket all game long...

Not sure whoever put him on the level of any of those players you mentioned.

Barkley is a known heat hater. Robin Lopez didnt outplay him at all. He was being a chuck and he was the reason why the bulls didn't win by a larger margin.

On top of that if it was so easy to stuff stats by just standing next to basket , why doesnt every center put up those numbers? On top of that he is a center, why shouldn't he he planted next to the basket? He should be on the 3 point line?

This reminds me of something...I Love Whiteside posing as if Doug McDermott tackled him. Stacey King said it best that night. Whiteside needs to hit the weight room if that's even possible.

1. He was for the most part destroying Lopez, while being the focal point of the Bulls D.

2. As far as having no other job then to plant yourself next to the basket, as well of totally being ignored by the opponent, Tristan leads the league hands down.

Anytime you can start the post with "even though he went for 20/20", let THAT player please be on my team.
I'd like the see the list of players who have that on their resume this year or pretty much ever.

you're right, i'd take 20/20 every friggin' NIGHT. I just found it funny that Hurriclown is trying to do Wiggy's work here...

ESPECIALLY after he had the audacity to call ME a "zombie" the other day...:lol:

He's not as overrated as the other guys you mentioned.

AD, KAT, and Cousins are currently losers that can't impact a game enough to win consistently.

What the hell does Tristan have anything to do with anything? Someone obsessed perhaps?

Holy shit, I didn't realize Whiteside was quite this sensitive of a discussing point on this board.:L

I think it's just one of those long running arguments.

* Please see Tristan vs. Whiteside thread.

I can see where you are coming from with your " empty stats " like Love in Minnesota theory.

But, he put up similar stats last year as well.

Time will tell if he is a #1, #2, or #3.

I think he's pretty good and has a solid skill set.

One of the Heat fans posed the question of Drummond vs .Whiteside the other day.

* I think it was Turnup, if not sorry*.

Initially I scoffed.

But, after looking up stats and using the eye test, so far this year, he has a solid point.

Outside of age, what makes Drummond better?

Yes, he has a higher ceiling because he's 4 years younger.

But, currently...is he better?

This is Whitside's first Season as the man.

At the end of the year, let's revisit.

No, i'm right.

He's not as overrated as those three mentioned because he's never been rated as better.

However, those three guys are highly overrated.

None of those guys are overrated. They carry their teams and have no players around them. Btw...calling KAT overrated is dumb as fuck bc he is only in his 2nd year and has been great so far

You're wrong.

Great players impact the game to the point of winning, regardless of their teammates; they make their teammates better.

The better thing to say about KAT is "he's great for a 2nd year player," but he's not great in terms of impact like a real superstar. Minnesota has PLENTY of talent and a great coach.

Want to talk about truly great? Look at Kobe leading the Lakers to a 7 game series with the prime Suns when Kwame, Luke, and Smush were starting.
