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.

Withey is quicker and has better footwork outside of the paint as well. He'll have all offseason to work with the training staff and beef up.

I don't look at him as the center of the future. I look at him as our backup center of the future.
