Whiteside gets a lot of blocks but doesn't mean he's a good defender

when was the last time you saw someone gets triple double like blocks? He's like Steph Curry but instead of 3's, its blocks.
Whiteside has a special talent and he'll be a perfect fit for the lakers along side Randle. We have so much money to spend, why settle for less?

You do not settle for less. Tell me how many team in the west will play small ball next year. Now tell me who would defend small ball better.. Whiteside or Biyombo.

By the way how is a center that doesn't shoot a perfect match with Randle. Biyombo isn't a perfect match either. A perfect match for Randle would be Al Horford.

Whiteside actually has a decent midrange game.

He's also a nice fit to Randle as a rim protector. Randle has quick feet and is a fine defender on the perimeter but he isn't much of a deterrent in the paint due to his short wingspan.

You talking about Warriors small ball who got exposed by Cavs and TT? Who just dominated in rebounds? Look at the warriors without their bigman Bogut. You sure are smart.
And Al Horford? How is he a perfect fit for Randle and Lakers? Getting Al Horford is like Carlos Boozer all over again. No defense whatsoever.
gtfo of lakers thread clueless pig

Bruh, Horford is an above average defensive player and one of the best shooting big men in the league. He's has a high IQ on defense and excells in defending the pick&roll and reading offenses. It's easy to argue that Horford is a better fit on the Lakers than Whiteside though I'm partial to Hassan mainly due to the fact that he's 3 years younger.

Dude you are so ignorant. It's like you're saying Biyombo is not a good rebounder and shot blocker. Whiteside might be better but Biyombo is a huge improvement.

Biyombo is speacial because he can D the perimeter and Block Shot.. Whiteside can't do that.

And as always Biyombo will be cheaper.

You're the dumbest person to post here, and that's saying something

Don't take this the wrong way, but Ending your life might actually raise humanity's collective iq a few points

Horford is not even the best big man on the hawks. Why would we want an average player? We need defense! We haven't had good defense in years

well that escalated quickly
