    Early leaders have to be Whiteside or Bazemore

    The answer lies in this statistic. Meyers Leonar_ is averaging 1 more rebound per game than Zach Collins

    Bazemore, Whiteside, or Hezonja. Whichever one underachieves the most.

    This is a tough one? The contracts don't really line up for the hate? If Whiteside is a bust he is expiring. I doubt Bazemore can turn the ball over and miss as many shots as the guy he replaced for the money? Lets hope i'm wrong on this. The biggest knock on Turner was that albatross contract as was the same with Meyers. I don't think Mario gets the same hate again because of contract.
    Just don't see the same "Hate to Contract" ratio in many of these players. Now if you want to go "Hate to Hype" you might end up with Whiteside or Simons? But "Hype" is a more personal issue.
    Then there is Trent Jr.

    We could hate on Meyers if he is really consistent and has a good year for the Heat.

    I honestly could see this. Then you gotta know Elle will tweet something and it might not sit well with a few fans.

    It's obviously Whiteside, but I have noticed that Bazemore has butterfingers.

    Fans are already coming up with trade proposals for Whiteside before he’s officially played a game. The answer is obvious.

    I'm expecting to like Whiteside. A bit Leary of bazemore and his high volume low efficiency. Not sure how much better he'll be than turner.

    It's a tie between Raymond Felton and Jamal Crawford with Aldridge the clear third place winner.
