Nice, I'm glad I wasn't a part of that summer jam screen.. I wasn't initially on the towns train but by the end of his year at Kentucky I was all aboard
I remember when I said he was already more athletic than gasol and osh saying I was discounting marcs athleticism at his peak

Let the Kristaps vs Towns debate begin.
Some say, it's no debate
Hey man I'm just asking a question
Trying to see where the experts "project" his defensive potential
I'm quite sure somebody will come in with an advanced stat stating on the second Saturday of the month on a back to back with 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter Towns in a elite defender with a 4.0 WAR and 38.4 PER but hey what do I know.
I'll just keep watching Kristaps do things never done before in the NBA or since Shaq also with Melo holding him back from reaching his potential.
Smell me Wavy ?

Not that the Knicks are a great system and culture but they do have veterans
You swap zinger to the wolves for kat and I honestly wonder what they'd both look like
Wolves IMO would still be a dumpster fire with zinger putting up similar numbers, Knicks on the other hand probably hover around the same record as well
Still think kat has the edge but zinger proved a lot to me

We are both lucky to have two potentially great big men on our roster..let's just be happy and stop comparing the two 
But if we are comparing the two it's not close.. KAT >>>>

More ********. You don't see me arguing KP vs. Embiid or anyone else for that matter.
Your better than that
Your playing the Homer card with me but a wolves fan are saying they aren't even close.
My argument is basically that's false

Nah I'm just ******* with you since you always seem to be comparing the two

Well they had Drake's presence for like 4 years, so it's a lateral move

Of course your with Victor he's on your side
These guys are gonna be compared forever they went #1 and #4 and are buddies
Don't act like it's just me with this comparison stuff
I'll reiterate again the gap if their is one is small
KAT is bigger and stronger and has a far superior post game and rebounding ability and already has the superstar respect from the officials
KP plays a more perimeter oriented game and is the better shooter and rim protector. Also is a 2nd/1st/3rd option depending on the night meanwhile KAT is the bonafide man in Minnesota.
I'm still waiting for you to explain why he's better and it's not even close

That was my joke to get you all riled up my brother.
I've said many times porkfingaz is already a star.. I can't count how many times I've seen you dump on KATs name like you can't like KP without hating KAT
I wouldn't say KAT is the bonfire man here yet because Wiggins still leads our team in shot attempts. KAT second and Lavine right behind him.

You and the rest of the people that make weird posts like the one I quoted
Anyway, the only argument for KP not being CLOSE to KAT is based on last year. Last year KP looked great but the production just wasn't there consistently. Now its totally different. Hard to argue he's really better at anything outside of rebounding this year.
However, KP is in a nice role as the 3rd option basically and doesn't need to create too much for himself. KAT doesn't have that luxury on offense. No excuse for the defense though - KP is just a freak on that end.

If KAT had the luxury of having "the best scorer in the league" on his team, his numbers would be even more impressive.

Interesting take
KAT on the Knicks.

Towns also plays with two other players that averages 20PPG. He has the supporting cast but for whatever reason it doesn't translate to W's.
KP fell off a cliff second half of his rookie season and people still act like he's that same player.
Neither are notches above the other

If he was on the Knicks we would kill him about his shortcomings just like we do everybody else

We ain't getting W's because our defense is trash KAT is part of the trash defense. End of the day our 3 best players are only 21 years old. KP playing with 8-10+ year vets in the starting lineup

Take KAT and KP off each of their teams, it's pretty clear which one is better. Having 2 20pt scorers next to KAT that don't pass doesn't change that.
