TC continues to play well when 100% healthy. They are loving him in Dallas. http://www.nba.com/2011/news/featur...tip-2010-countdown/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpt1 No reason for this to be a what-if thread. Just a tip of the cap to a guy I enjoyed a lot when he was a Bull.
Chandler is a hell of a NBA big man. Very similar to Noah actually. We were fortunate to get such a good replacement for him, after the Ben Wallace debacle.
They are similar players, but I think Noah has more drive. Has the fire in his belly. Not sure if Tyson ever had that. He is making a difference with Dallas.
You can't be everywhere on the court like Chandler if you don't have that fire. He is still superior to Noah on D IMHO.
We'd be better off with both Chandler and Noah. Wouldn't you rather see Chandler out there than Kirk Thomas?
Seriously? Anyway, I'm with you. I'm glad for his success. He needs the right system to be effective. Dallas is a good spot for him. Agreed that he's probably better than Jo on defense, but Jo is parsecs ahead of him on offense. (No hyperbole!)
No reason for it not to be, too, :> Ummm, no...not in a team system. Chandler helps a good team on O because he knows his limitations. I don't think Noah is a parasec ahead of a net positive player. Now, in a 1 on 1 game, you might be onto something.
