People need to stop getting so excited about Withey, he's basically Jason Smith without a proven jumper. That's not bad, especially on a rookie contract, but he's not the center we're looking for, he's part of the committee at best.


No way Withey and Smith are even kind of comparable on the defensive end.

Does Withey seem to have a better handle on fundamentals of post defense? Yes. He was a college DPOY after all. But are they similarly sized, active big men that block shots and have relatively poor rebound rates? Yes. That's the similarity I see, and the rebounding weakness in Withey's game is why I don't think he's our starting C of the future.
