two of my favorite players and power forwards in the league
as a big they are both mobile , can shoot well from ft and 3, have some handles and passing ability, can rebound and play decent defense
both coming of one of their best career seasons,
who would you take rn, Kristaps Porzingis or Julius Randle?
some quick career stats just for reference but their stats last year were generally better:
Kristaps Porzingis
19.6pts | 7.9reb | 1.9ast | 0.7stl | 1.8blk | 1.7tov
Julius Randle
18.7pts | 9.4reb | 3.6ast | 0.7stl | 0.4blk | 2.8tov
who u got?
I don’t know how you don’t say Randle.
Porzingis might have the better statistical season, but Randle has had more impact years where he’s made his team better.
That doesn’t necessarily mean I think Randle is a player I want to build around or anything, but he’s had 2 actual legitimate years where he improved his team and made them matter. That’s two more than Porzingis ever had.
How would the bucks say randle? You playing him at the 3? Surely the bucks would rather have KP for lopez insurance since the man is definitely gonna regress soon
Not sure how you are measuring impact, but impact metrics favored Porzingis significantly more than Randle last year.
KP’s health is a huge issue, but the one year he was healthy the advanced metrics would say he was better than Randle.
