He does NOT contest shots in pick and roll situations.

Jonas is eating his lunch right now.

Is someone really going to max this guy out?

Whiteside is good. Jonas is just very good.

Whiteside's defense is overrated, dude chases blocks that's why his averages are so high

Bosh said it himself, the IQ ain't there

That's why I couldn't believe people were lobbying for him to win DPoY. That's how you know people only see stats

His post defense is terrible
hes mainly good for protecting the rim and getting highlight blocks

Been bad tonight, but he's had much better days. He's still inexperienced.

Don't get me wrong, he's probably a top 5 center...but his not contesting shots in pick and roll situations is detrimental to his team. Just put a hand up.

If anything Valanciunas is underrated..He needs to get off the Craptors.

He will always look disinterensted once he's not touching the ball.

Watchout out the next team who signs him. red flag. needs the ball to be happy ala Dwight

Whiteside just has no fundamentals in post D. The sad part is I think he's worse learning from people like Haslem. Haslem pushes up on D with his hands up b/c he's fkn 6'8".

You are 7' with a ridiculous wingspan, you should not be pushing up on D, you should be baiting people to try to shoot with space, and challenging with the proper hand, that would make it plenty hard to shoot. Instead JV & Big Al just fake and go under him. He's an absolute freak and should just watch tape of Dwight in his prime.

Just because you rebound and block shots dooesn't mean you are a good defender.

Making his defender miss and difficult to create shots, contesting shots is the best defense that doesn't add up to the stats.

Overrated? You speak of overrated? Your boy played in the league for 20 years and only won 1 MVP! How in the hell do you have the record for most FG attempt/missed and only win 2 pathetic scoring titles in your whole career? Explain that F@ck boi!!! Also, don't even come at my with 5 rings... Titles are won by TEAMS not individual players! what exactly has Kobe done other than chuck a ton of shots to get 81?

He does alter shots and contest. Players sometimes run into the paint , see him and come out. His post defense was trash early in the year and he improved it but still isn't good. He's a good defender but in the Playoffs his defense has been bad.

He needs to come to LAL. Kareem will show him what's up, on both sides of the court. He turned Bynum in to the most polished center in the league before the injuries struck him down.

Players are afraid to shoot layups and shots in the paint cus they're afraid of getting swatted from behind by Whiteside. Him just being on the court changes shots. Very few centers are good scorers capable of punishing Whiteside's poor post D, allowing Whiteside to sag off his man and play safety.

Jonas is one of those centers with a strong scoring game capable of punishing Whiteside, and the inexperienced Whiteside is not handling it well.


He is a player who has shown he has strong work ethic and improves very quickly. Compare him this season to his first season in the league. There's no reason to believe he won't continue to improve, considering how coachable he has been and how hard he has worked so far. His post D can be improved with better coaching and more experience and his offensive game can improve a lot if he has a solid coach like Hakeem or Kareem.

He was a different player in the second half. Got bullied by Val, and wasn't contesting anything on the pick and roll. Needs to step out further, but honestly, he looked tired; don't think his conditioning is up to scratch.

He's the best Center Miami's had in 6yrs (Jermaine O'Neal)

I noticed he goes for a lot of unnecessary blocks on already well contested shots and thus his man can get offensive rebounds like Valanciunas if he doesn't end up blocking that shot.

Been saying this since day 1. His man-on-man and his pick-and-roll D are subpar. Luckily he is long, have good hands, and can jump or else he would have no business in the NBA based on his skills.

Amare needs more time. He started 36 straight games and in 16 minutes, he averaged 7/5 on 57%. He can still score when given the shots. Maybe the Heat won't have scoring lapses with him in operating the PNR.

Whiteside does have some skill. He has had a nice little hook, spin move, and a jumpshot.

Amare's defense has been trash.

Jonas is a good scorer. His shitty coach and teammates never call plays for him. Not his fault. He's shown off a lot of strong moves vs Whiteside this series.

He's been creampieing Whiteside pretty hard.

Jonas is elite on both ends of the floor but his teammates don't get him involved enough offensively.
