Tiago Splitter
Tyson Chandler
comparing Tyson Chandler to Kevin Durant and Charles Barkley. You're your own troll tbh.
It's not just PER that Splitter does well on rascal. WS, WS/48, ORTG, DRTG, eFG%, TS%, Synergy, etc. All the stats except for TRB% suggest that Splitter's holding his own against NBA starters. The collective numbers show that he's been our 4th most productive player. I don't have a problem with people who don't think he's an all-star or whatever and even in this thread I said that I'd take Chandler.
But to suggest that Splitter's not a good starter is just not in line with reality.
BNSF What does the N stand for?
BNSF with the bad takes
Splitter was over hyped when he came to the Spurs and some are still over hyping him.
Most people here have already said that they'd take Chandler over Splitter. It's more like you are underrating him to the point where you're not making sense.
Splitter still has areas where he needs to improve and there are other players we'd rather have. That doesn't mean he's not a good player. He's a quality big who keeps getting better. And even though we have complaints about him and feel there are certain areas he needs to grow in, he's still been our 4th most productive player. It is what it is.
You always gotta go with the elite defense. This team would be sick with Chandler. That being said, this thought experiment doesn't really interest me. We've got a great player in Splitter, and I'm excited to see what he'll do in the playoffs this year now that he's playing so well.
Would 35% of regular NBA fans outside of Spur fans pick Splitter?
Bad argument there, less than 35% of regular NBA fans would pick TP over Westbrick, so by that logic, Parker is overhyped
? I don't get it.
The overwhelming majority of regular NBA fans thought two guys from a terrible team should start the all star game. The average NBA fan is stupider than you are tbh.
Who are those two guys?
Yes, I agree. Hypotheticals that in no way will or could happen have no place in serious basketball discussion. Comparing Lebron to Kobe to Jordan.. well that is for weak minded new loser members. Seriously, lighten up. There is only so much to talk about with entering ridiculous hypothetical territory.

Regular Nba fans are dumb, that's the point, just look at Kobe/Howard/Garnett in the ASG
Did you see the stats posted earlier in this thread? It's not like people are being asked to choose between Bonner and Lebron James.
The Spurs fans who didn't pick Chandler are probably thinking in terms of upside, team chemistry, and offensive output because the defense is already elite with Splitter. Those stats listed earlier show that they produce at a similar rate with Chandler rebounding more and Tiago scoring more while having a slight edge in assists, blocks, and steals.
Besides that, the average fan hasn't paid attention to Splitter's game and doesn't bother looking at the advanced stats and numbers. So of course they'd all go for Chandler. They go for names they recognize.
Now that Splitter is starting, his stats are very close to Chandler's. However, Splitter is helped tremendously by the team around him. I think Chandler's scoring would be higher on the Spurs. Imagine him in the pick and roll with Parker and Ginobili. Chandler also has better defense. Right now, I'd probably go with Chandler, though its a lot closer this year than it was last year.
not a fair comparison tbh.. glad he's slowly getting those though..
Lol spursfan finds a new low
lol, the majority of NBA fans are outraged with TP's selection for AS game over Curry, why do you think they'll be good judges over low key talent on below radar team Spurs like Splitter ??
naaaaaaaaah. Chandler is not comparable with Splitter.
give Tiago 1-2 years more and when he's already averaging 15-10, then lets talk again.
Kobe and Howard are still some of the best players in the league. Garnett gets voted in because of his past.
Where do you get that info that the majority of NBA fans are outraged over TPs selection?lol, the majority of NBA fans are outraged with TP's selection for AS game over Curry, why do you think they'll be good judges over low key talent on below radar team Spurs like Splitter ??
Just take a look into comments in forums and websites everywhere, regarding threads or topics about AS game players selection. No body questions about Paul (deservedly) or Westbrook (great stats, monkeyball playing style, & OKC no. 1 standing), and Harden also (because of Houston hometown factor), only Parker's singled out because of his "average" stats and non "wow" playing style. Most agree that some frontcourt players are more undeserving (Howard and Aldridge), but Curry's a backcourt player and they see Parker as the most replaceable. Heck, even analysts are questioning Parker's selection, like Barkley proposing Jamal freakin Crawford, just read those darn articles around.
Wow, comparing the DPOY and champion center to Tiago Splitter? Really? No.
