Would you rather have Serge Ibaka or Kevin Love on your team?

[Budadiiii]

You have a choice out of the two, pick who you'd want on your team

[NZStreetBaller]

ummmmm i look at them as

Klove offense
Ibaka defense

So depends what was needed on my team.

But overall when it comes to big man i'd choose defense over offense. so IBAKA!!

[Rodmantheman]

Ibaka.

[Cocaine80s]

Ibaka easily

[dubeta]

Hmm, huge Kevin Love fan, but I have to go with Ibaka

[Lord Bean]

with kyle irving and doin waiter and verjao this is most stack team in nba history

if lebron do not win 3 champonship in next 5 year with cleveland he is out my top 50 all time

[PhutureDynasty]

Serge Ibaka. As others have said it's about defense vs offense and I value defense more.

[Kvnzhangyay]

If I'm starting a team, kevin love

If I'm using him as a role player/2nd or 3rd option Ibaka

[Milbuck]

Ibaka easily
lol

Kevin Love will win MVP this season

You heard it hear first

24/12/6 while Cavs get the 1st seedhttp://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?p=10569444#post10569444


Kevin Love is a top 5 player in the league

1.Lebron/Durant
2.Durant/Lebron
3.Cp3
4.Westbrook
5. Love




shit just got serious folkshttp://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?p=10623403#post10623403


Cleveland is ****ing stacked

If Blatt can get their defense to not be shit then its a title this year imo.

Wade-Lebron-Bosh was a terrible fit yet dominated the league for almost 4 years.

Kyrie-Love-Lebron fit perfectly and should rape the rest of the league.

Damn this season gon be goodhttp://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?p=10548642#post10548642

It depends of what the rest of my team looks like but if I'm starting one Love. He is clearly the best player between the 2 of them.

[masonanddixon]

Love.

Ibaka is a solid starting lineup player. No more no less.

[Sakkreth]

I take Love and then trade him for Ibaka and whatever else I need. :confusedshrug:

[IMObjective]

Anyone choosing Ibaka is a straight up idiot.
Yeah, love 90% of the time. But if your team defense is pretty lopsided in favor of the offense ibaka's probably the better pick.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Love is a superstar, alltime great rebounder and offensive force for a PF and is arguably the best power forward in basketball/of this generation

Ibaka isnt top 10 and is a role player

[I<3NBA]

Kevin Love

[Nash]

It's love obviously but Ibaka is good and offers top rim protection in the league which is extremely valuable asset to have in a team.

[pauk]

It entirely depends on what type of team/cast it is...... if we are talking about Cavs/Thunder for example, with Durant/Lebron around Love will work a bit more of the ball / spotup shooting and so on, he wont be having as many touches due to a better offensive player being there, there is only one ball, so his productions will be decreased.... all of the sudden they run back to defense where its non existent for Love....

Meanwhile Ibaka is completely in his offensive comfort zone with Durant/Lebron orchestrating the offense, thats infact how his scoring becomes even better... then they run back to defense where Ibaka is a DPOY type of interior defender who can exhert all that energy there.....

TL;DR- i think Ibaka is a better complementary player for Durant/Lebron.... but Love would be a better choice if you are more desperate for scoring... so im not sure...

[ImKobe]

If I was Cleveland I'd rather have Ibaka

As a 3rd option, at 24 yrs old, he put up 15 & 9 with nearly 3 blocks a game plus he shot 44,5% on jump shots last season and his 3pt shot is coming along nicely, though he's not a volume 3pt shooter he can make em when open

I feel like Ibaka is exactly the 3rd option Lebron would need, for OKC, he basically does what Bosh did in Miami, but better due to his impact on the defensive end

I feel like Ibaka will have a more meaningful career, overall.

Pauk, you always overrate Ibaka's defense and make your lack of knowledge far too obvious. Seems fitting how you never actually give any details either, because anyone who actually watched Ibaka for past 3 years would know his man-to-man, pick-n-roll and post defense isn't "DPOY caliber". He is elite at weak side shot blocking, recovering and chasing down guards and "intimidating" retards that don't know how to pump fake.

Anytime he faces a skilled big man that understands the game he gets embarrassed. Such as Dirk, Duncan, Bosh, Diaw, etc. I find it shocking you still spew this nonsense. Your argument makes absolutely no sense and isn't grounded in reality. In no type of team would Ibaka be a bettter "fit", Love's rebounding, scoring and shooting range trumps ANYTHING Ibaka can offer to a team.

Using your logic, I am sure people would rather have Kevin Durant over Lebron on their team if they have all-star talent, because there is only 1 ball and only 1 of those two can play off-ball and let his teammates shine instead of turning them into spot-up shooters. :facepalm

[DMV2]

LMAO :oldlol: ... Kevin Love, who some calls the best PF in the league, is gonna take a backseat to Serge Ibaka?

Why do people keep forgetting how big bad Serge Ibaka got dick slapped by Chris Bosh in the Finals? That's how LeBron was able to live in the post in that series. Bosh manhandled that OKC frontcourt, including Durant who didn't grab more than 5 rebounds in a game until the last game(a blow out). How the hell do you get punked by Chris Bosh, a guy who very feminine and scared to get rough.

I get it....anybody who plays with LeBron isn't as good as their resume says.

Your right that ibaka is not a good man to man defender and he bites on too many pump fakes and your also right that he is not a decent rebounder due to low core strength like Hibbert. However..ibaka is a great shot blocker and shot alterer against driving guards and small forwards. Considering there are only 2-3 pfs in the game that can dominate ibaka in a post up situation u can abuse without help defence and around 50 top pg, sg and sf that drive to the rim to score most of their points, ibaka provides very important weak side defence as well as any player in the league. In clevelands case love is prob the worst weak side and shot blocking/altering pfs in the league whilst ibaka is the best. Ibakas impact is clearly not shown on the score board but he is a better fit defensive wise and offensive chemistry and role wise. We all heard of twos a whatever but 3s a crowd and Kevin loves points won't be needed as much as defence.

[andremiller07]

Kevin Love cause at least he can dominate Matt Bonnar when he's on him in a 7 game series.

Seriously how is this even a question?
