Here are the stats from the last two years of playoff games.

Player A: 18.8 points, 9.28 rebounds, 1.38 blocks, 39.9% shooting (18 games)

Player B: 18.9 points, 13.9 rebounds, 2.4 blocks, 56.6% shooting (23 games)

Update:

Player A is Marc Gasol
Player B is Dwight Howard

Agreed. Player A definitely looks like an overrated player, although it might have become trendy to say he's better than Player B.

Player A is Marc Gasol, a.k.a. "the best center in the NBA" according to the MSB.

Player B is Dwight Howard, the actual best center in the NBA.

How about we give full season + playoff stats in order to get a full picture, instead of an incredibly small sample size against uneven competition?

Marc is considered the best C by every NBA analysts pretty much. Not just idiots on this board.


Dwight also averaged 21+ points not 19



Marc is the better defender and better passer. Got to factor that in.

Dwight was a beast in the playoffs a year ago when Harden disappeared.

He was alright this year

In the playoffs, AD is a center, so I'll take him. And so would you if you could.

Math isn't your strong suit, huh? You have to average per game. You can't just average the two years. He played more games in the playoffs this last year.

If player B is Howard, then I would have sworn his PPG was higher (in the 20s).

I'm gonna need closer to a full season's stats instead of a handful of cherry picked games.
