    Damn Whiteside's got the goods on D. Good thing the Heat can't shoot.

    Whiteside is younger with a bigger upside. Howard can still play but he's not what he used to be

    Missed the Allen Crabbe three because they were showing a replay during live action. Was that really necessary? I feel like I'm beating a dead horse here.

    And Howard will likely get the same contract maybe even bigger

    When it comes to bigs I know my first want is whiteside. Heat doesn't have bird rights on him. Drummond would be another I would make an offer too but Detroit has bird rights on him I believe so they can offer him more and match anything we throw at him.

    In this stage of their careers. Howard has his head on straighter than Whiteside.

    Whiteside also fits the the age group olshey and them are trying to keep around this Blazers group. I don't know why I'm just really hyped on him, I always loved really good defensive centers. His stats this year have been crazy

    Collapse on Whiteside when he has the ball! He averages an assist once every three games!

    That's debatable but I see what you mean. That would be the only risk with whiteside but Howard is a pretty lazy player in my opinion. I feel like he doesn't want to win. I don't know. This dude already has 5 blocks in this game. When was the last time Howard had 5 blocks? Probably in Orlando

    All Whiteside cares about are stats. Howard wants to win, he's said it multiple times now.

    I don't want Whiteside because someone is gonna overpay for him and I don't want it to be us.
