Who would you rather have for this team, Blake Griffin or Dwight Powell?

Blake Griffin Salary:

*The Pistons have been granted a $9.2 million disabled player exception for Blake Griffin's season-ending knee procedure.*

2021-22: $11,080,125

Powell will more than likely be out for a year. I doubt he plays next season but adding Blake Griffin doesn't make sense.

Blake earns almost 4 times more than what Powell makes. And his impact isn't 4x more than Powell either. So I'd take Powell at this point.

Blake Griffin was terrible this season before his injury.

As a player? Or the contract?
Easy vote for Dwight. If they're both on the same contract I might be inclined to take a chance on Blake.

If they both have the same contract the pick is Blake Griffin. Simple answer.

I think this really depends on how they return from their respective injuries. But right now, Powell’s contract is easier to swallow

Easily Dwight Powell. Blake is massively overpaid and pretty much done, no thanks to that

I'd take my chances on him based on his past performances but recently I think there's not much of a case for him over Dwight unfortunately.

As a player is what I meant, but I do appreciate the contract analysis.
