    Default Roy Hibbert -vs- Hasheem Thabeet

    There was a good matchup of potential centers for the Charlotte Bobcats Saturday afternoon when Georgetown played UConn.
    I've been leaning towards Hibbert over Thabeet lately if the big 2 of Oden and Durant are off the board, and this head to head matchup just cemented how I already felt about it.

    Head to head these were the numbers:

    Thabeet
    minutes 28
    FG 3-6
    FT 0-0
    reb 4
    blk 2
    pts 6

    Hibbert
    minutes 33
    FG 7-13
    FT 4-5
    reb 12
    blk 3
    pts 18

    definitely take hibbert too. hibbert is more polished offensively and an enforcer defensively. however thabeet is more athletic, but that athletic ability is useless if you cannot do much with it like thabeet. he has trouble scoring in the post. he's like a bigger but less glorified joakim noah (who is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overrated)

    another thing, Hasheem has shown ZERO development in his game over the course of the season. Hibbert has improved from a late first round prospect to easily a top 7 or 8 pick.

    Hasheem is raw with a ton of potential but Hibbert is more NBA ready.

    I'm REALLY starting to warm to the idea of drafting Hibbert. I'd for sure draft him over Thabeet - I don't want Thabeet at all.

    Maybe a better comparison would be Hibbert Vs Oden?

    I'm hoping that we get to see those two matchup in the NCAA tournament. I'd take Oden over Hibbert 100 times out of a 100, but if we wind up with the 3rd or lower pick, I would be thrilled to get Hibbert. He has offense, he rebounds, plays defense, blocks shots and he has the Georgetown big man pedigree.

    Give me a player that can be a low post force, it's all good to me.

    Get Hibbert with our 1st pick.

    Oh man neither please; must stay focused on Durant/Oden. With BB in full out tank mode; I'm getting more hopeful. Watching the other lowbie NBA teams slowly catching up in the win column....and happy as hell about it. I LOL at Bernies substitutions; really what else can you do; they're ludicrous.

    Okay though if I must I'd take Hibbs in a sec over Thabeet; but probably not with a top 5 pick. I wouldn't touch Thabeet, but let someone else waste a pick on him.

    Really I LIKE Okafor at Center (although I'd like Oden even more), so I'd look around for a PF type too; especially with Sean May so busted these days.

    Anyway Primo and Jake can backup Okafor next year no problem....ok just kidding....this is the NBA not the CBA.

    Oh believe me we all want Oden/Durant. We're just thinking that it's more likely for us to end up with a 5-10 pick, cuz I know we're no worse than Memphis, Boston, or Atlanta for that matter. Wins wise? I think we'll probably get a 4-7 pick. Hopefully those ping pong balls are lucky for us!
