Is Draymond a glorified Bismack Biyombo?

[Consumed]

starting to wonder how the warriors have been so good over the years with these overrated players

lillard got swept by a top 40 player, a choke artist, a super 3&D specialist. shameful.

 

[Frump]

If he wasn’t surrounded by two of the greatest shooters ever to hide his weakness offensively he’s Andre Roberson

 

[42 Monks]

That's an insult to Biyombo - one of the nice guys and passionate philanthropists in the NBA

 

[Luke Cage]

Dennis rodman minus the rebounding and cross dressing

 

[Torrential]

Nice

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

the fact that people think he's a HOF'r makes me sick

WOAT.

Is Kareem/Shaq stopper Draymond looking funny in the light?

• PTS 9.1
• REB 6.2
• PER 13.90
  
  Vs
  • PTS 7.6
  • REB 4.8
  • PER 18.31

 

[KidJSoul]

He's a really great player but he'd be perpetual trade bait for contenders like how Ibaka and Pat Bev used to be

Great defenders with limited offensive skills

Does Draymond have any sort of issues with larger centers? I've felt he does fine against them.

And you can't say that no smaller guys have guarded Shaq.

Do you take the athleticism + strength of those two into account compared to Draymond?

Draymond outweighs Rodman and he's strong as fukk with really impressive core and lower body strength and positioning. The biggest difference between them is that Rodman is 90s so he gets mythologized, Draymond is current so he gets teased by people who live online.

Cue in mythology making out Rodman to be superhuman, while I'll still be waiting for the examples of big centers overpowering Draymond.

I mean fukk, I watched the Blazers guard Shaq with Brian Grant for stretches and it wasn't great but he got through his assignment.

I mean Rodman was notoriously a freak strength wise by all accounts despite his weight. I don't know their bench pressing stats but he was not getting pushed around. And he was much more athletic than Draymond to boot. No need to mention Big Ben I guess, he was the full deal.

Dray just doesn't have the athleticism to stay with Shaq like that. He'd have as much chance as Kenyon Martin or those types did back then.
