Heat stars call out Porzingis: Let

[AngelEyes]

He had a tough shooting night but he still manages to make an impact when his shot isn't falling.

[Smoke117]

What's funny about 20/14? Guy is less than 16 games into his career and at 20 years old is better than every single player on the heat right now not named Wade.

He's not better than Whiteside or Bosh...don't be ridiculous. He needed 18 shots to get those 20 points...an opposing team will take that every night. Better than Whiteside... Good one.

When did Whiteside become fucking Wilt Chamberlain?

I think he's better than Whiteside. Not Bosh tho. Bosh just had an off game.

This was one of the worst defensive games by Porz thus far imo

When did Whiteside become fucking Wilt Chamberlain?

He averages 14.8ppg 11.1rpg 4.9bpg .623%fg in 28.8mpg while leading the league in drating and being 1 of 2 of the most impactful defensive players in the league...how the hell is Porzingis better?

I'll give you bosh, but you're on crack if you think Whiteside is better gtfo with that bullsh!t.

Porzingis really impressed me and he's going to be a big time player, but there's no way he's currently better than Whiteside. I'm pretty sure every coach and GM in the league would agree. Whiteside has turned into a major force on one of the better teams in the league.

He's putting up 15/11 on 62% with 5 blocks. He's a top five rebounder in the league and the best rim protector in the league by a wide margin. He is a legit all-star center.

How do you think Whiteside compares to Drummond?

[ShaqTwizzle]

Zinger = 20pts on 52%TS + 14 rebounds
W-Side = 11pts on 44%TS + 11 rebounds

Godzinga's thoroughly outplayed Whiteside tonight.

He's the next Kobe then.

Whiteside gets a lot of his points created for him. Porzingis rarely if ever has that happen and when it does it's catch and shoots from 3. Everything in the post is self generated. Whiteside is more polished tho and knows where to be on both ends better. But there is no way Whiteside could be a 2nd option on a team with no penetration or playmakers. Defensively, Whiteside is much more polished (makes less mistakes) and is a better shotblocker so he has the edge.

It's close but I'll actually give it to Whiteside I think because he's more of a known quantity right now and Porzingis' fluctuates quite a bit and has only started surging lately.

[jimmy77x]

Point is, kp is doing this at 20 in just his first few games when everyone thought he'd be a project. Whiteside has already peaked, no real offensive talent but he is big and can move.

[Pointguard]

Whiteside has been on the best center tear in the league. But he was outplayed by SuperZinger. This is wild.

How do you think Whiteside compares to Drummond?

Similar in a lot of regards but Whiteside's rim protection is what sets him apart imo. Drummond is a beast though and he's just 22 years old. He might have a higher ceiling than Whiteside, but Whiteside is still relatively young and has already improved considerably on the offensive end (Jawan Howard deserves a TON of credit for his overall development). Best 2 centers in the league right now. Looking forward to Wednesday's matchup.

Per 36 comparison:

Whiteside: 19/14/6 on 62%
Drummond: 18/18/1.5 on 55%
