this thread gets upped for exhibitions in drummonds favor but in season games for AD

that should tell you all you need to know about this comparison

AD is just flat out a better player

I honestly think that they're practically equal in everything except FT shooting

Eh, they played recently and Drummond got the better of the matchup.

This thread doesn't get upped much at all, both guys are a long way off from their ceilings.

AD is better on both sides of the ball though. Im not downplaying Drummond here

Im just saying, AD is primed to be the best big in the league over the next 5+ years

Bruh you haven't been watching Drummond play.

I'm a piston fan and Davis is flat out a better player offensively and defensively.

People wanna label Drummond a defensive big, but his defense is pretty terrible as of right now.

He has gotten a lot better since the start of the season, he still has lapses but the Pistons were 29th in the league at one point and now are 18th. During that time period @ 29th Drummond's defensive rating was between 107-112, it has dropped to 101 and with it the the entire Piston's defense has improved because of it.

I don't really get caught up in all them fancy ratings and shyt. I'm just going by what I see when I'm watching the pistons. I know the whole team is bad defensively and that puts a lot of stress on Drummond to try to help everybody. As he gets more experience he'll get better.

He has lapses, but there are times where he shows glimpses of being dominant on defense and shuts down the paint. The numbers just bear out that as he has improved defensively so has the team defense as a whole, directly linked to him making better rotations. Still needs to box out and rotate better but he's made big strides in a short time, statistically he was the worst defender on the Pistons for the first two months, now he's their best.
