You Takin K. Love or Rodman?

[Leonard Washington]

If Im building a team Im rolling with Love

 

[Leonard Washington]

depends on who is on my team, if rodman played in this era and if I was Dan gilbert I would pick rodman over love since the cavs bigs are already trash and can't defend outside of varejao.

So then you will have a PF and Center who are not threats on the offensive end breh

But if you're the cavs you have two isolation scorers and the best do-it-all player running the show. You don't need all of your offense to come from the forward and center position.

I could see why LeBron wants the Cavs to get Love because Love WILL space the floor and he will start breaks, but I don't think that's worth giving up Wiggins. Wiggins and Bron together would be perfect

Of course it's dependent on the team, but let's say we're looking at them in a vacuum--as if we're taking the first pick in a pick-up game.

If it's the first pick in a pick-up game - then you pick Love. Who the hell picks a guy that can't score, first in a pick-up game?

Rodman is way more dominant at what he does best than what Kevin Love does best.

That's an idiotic way of looking at things. Love is asked to be a #1 option, Rodman never had the responsibility. If you were to weigh up what impact they had overall on a game - Love would probably come out on top.

I'm a great shooter, I don't need love to hog my shots, I need Rodman to shut down the paint and bully the other team while I knock down the perimeter shots.

Tough shyt, Love didn't necessarily ask to do jack shyt, he was the de facto best guy because the team is trash. If anything I question how much Love ever wanted to be the franchise guy on a franchise he probably despised since he set foot in the door. He's been contemplating a move for a long, long time me thinks. His team is absolute dog shyt, I don't blame him.

That's another thing, LeBron by himself is already pretty bytchmade, I wouldn't want two bytchmade guys as the two best players on my team.

People on here are always going value offense first especially in basketball. They're going go with love because he's the sexier pic aesthetically and statistically, but I'm rolling with rodman in this situation

Nvm, i saw you said "is asked" not "asked" whatever my point still remains firm n/h

Rodman. He played in the 90s so he would average 25-20 if he played today

 

[THE MACHINE]

Give me 26/12. I can't let nostalgia get in the way of this.










But.....

 

[TheyCallMeAzul]

But seriously, Rodman broke 10 ppg once . I understand the importance of defense but give me a 20/10 guy over him anyday. Love isn't gonna lock anyone down, but at a 30% DRB%, he does help your defense

Soon as I saw the thread title when I logged in on the home page I literally

Kevin Love is Ryan Anderson with a more handsome face and better body. He's a perimeter shooting big man that puts up empty numbers. Comparing him to Rodman is fukking laughable

Ryan Anderson ave 14 rebounds, oh shyt i never knew

 

[PS5 Pro]

I keep hearing how garbage Kevin Love is and how empty his stats are. The man is a rebounding machine though.

And for everything he doesn't give you defense, Rodman didn't give you on offense.

I'm just wondering what the coli says so I can adopt that as my personal opinion.

Depends on what type of team you have.
A team like Chicago would benefit from Love more than a Rodman since there problem is offensively being stagnant

I think MOST teams would benefit from Rodman more because most teams have offensive options
Defense is something that has became a lost art in the NBA
Lets not forget, Rodman was D'ing up SHAQ in his prime



What made Rodman special was the ENERGY he would bring to the arena.
Who gets hyped for rebounds? Dennis made it something worth cheering for (Tru Story)

 

[Woodrow]

We talking about prime Rodman? This aint even close

i'll take the pyscho-warrior with the never-ending motor and the skill-set to defend any damn position on the floor.

yall go on debating love's potential...

 

[Adam3000]

I voted Rodman thinking about building a roster around Lebron and Kyrie

But we are talking about on a random team in a vacuum then Love no question


EDIT: i change my vote. Love in both scenarios

 

[andre patton]

I fux with Rodman but we really gone act like Kevin Love dont give you the rebounding AND 26 ppg to go with it? 26 and 13 is empty? Dude plays in Minnesota. How big is Rodman's impact on a squad with Nikola Pekovic and Kevin Martin as his best teammates. His point guard cant crack 40% from the field.Yall cysing Rodman like shyt.

It depends on how you interpret the question. I think its easier to construct a championship team w/ Rodman as your starting PF than w/ K.Love

 

[Rice N Beans]

Rodman to be a hired gun on defense. He takes out their best player making it easier on you.
