    Well, these guys play different roles. Rashard has more of a shooting role, and doesn't perform much in rebs and asts. RWall on the contrary plays a position in which he needs to mostly rebound, but he shoots the ball respectably. His only problem is that he fires to many unnecessary shots kinda like VC. But by avgs, 'Sheed wins.

    I'd say Rasheed. He's taller, can rebound better, and is a much better defender.

    Rasheed wins this because he is a better overall player. Rashard and Sheed are both great scorers and jump shooters, but when it comes down to it Sheed gets the job done on the defensive end. Rashard is still young, and has room to develop a defensive game, but as of right now it isn't there yet. Rasheed is one of the most versiatile Big Men in the league, he can play from positions 3-5. His length and tenacity make him one hell of a defender, something he doesn't get the credit for too often.Now Sheed, future maybe Shard.

    Rasheed now and rasheed in 2 years, Rashhed is a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better defender than rashard. That with his timely offense kills this comparision.And oh, he's a champion.

    This is a pretty random comparision...Rahsard is a better shooter, but Rasheed is better down low, better defender and better rebounder.

    it's pretty close, but i'll take sheed. He's WAY more versatile, as he can shoot, post up, and defend, which is huge. He causes match-up problems for even the nba's best players. KG once said he was the hardest PF to guard in the league.

    Both of these guys are extremely different players. Sheed is a big man that has a nice outside stroke who is a very good low-post defender and very tough. Lewis is an athletic shooter (who doesn't use his athleticism half as much as he could/should). Very different.

    I mean if you are asking who I would pick in a 3-point shootout, then I would say Lewis. But if you are asking who I think the better overall player is - I would say Sheed by a good margin. He just does so much more than Lewis. Lewis is an NBDL player without his shot, while Sheed is still a servicable big man with good defensive skills, and rebounding.

    So in conclusion, Rashard is the better shooter, Sheed is the better player.

    Sheed's like an 87 in NBA LIve 06 and Shard is only like 76 or something. Clearly Sheed. lolSheed though, because he adds the inside game to the outside as well. He's also good defensively. A strong blocker.

    Did you only compare these two players because the names are kind of similar? Anyway, nobody is going to pick Rashard over Sheed, for the reasons already stated. Rashard = better pure shooter, Sheed = better player all around by far.

    I am going to go with Rasheed. He is a great shooter for a 6 11 big man and he can also play decent in the block. I say that rasheed and rashard are equal on offense yet on the defensive end, Rasheed is way better. He is a great shot blocker and backside defender. I give the edge to him.

    Easily Sheed. The only thing you might be able to argue Shard is better at, is shooting. Every other catigorie Sheed wins. Simple as that.

    Rasheed, plays better defense,better post up player and is the better overall player than Rashard. Lewis is a better shooter but Rasheeds more proven.Rasheed > Rashard
