Overall per36 Bam and TT had very comparable rookie seasons. TT was the better offensive rebounder and Bam was the better passer and FT shooter. Bam had a much more efficient season offensively though I think we can chalk a lot of that up to him being on a better team. TT's efficiency catapulted through the roof the second LeBron rejoined the Cavs and if we look at the playoffs when Hassan was sucking and we relied on Bam more his efficiency took a huge hit.

Overall I think the FT shooting is a good sign, IDK if he'll ever be a threat with his jump shot, but he certainly has a higher ceiling than TT in that regard.

Before the season I also had some questions about his motor and rebounding instincts which I feel like he's squashed for the most part, he'll be ok in that regard.

Defensively both of them are very mobile though I don't really like Bam defending in the post. On the perimeter, he's looked good but bigs like Nurkić killed him in the post during the games that Hassan was injured. He's got a weird build in that he's ripped but he doesn't seem to have a ton of core strength, he's only 20 though so it'll get better.

Offensively he just needs more confidence. He should be watching Clint Capela highlights daily, that is the goal.

Nurkic did not kill Bam in the post and Nurkic only scored 8 point at best on Bam. Bam also defended Nurkic well, Nurkic was just making shots. Don't forget what Bam did to Dwight.

He had 27 and 16 that game and Dwight sucks now.

But how many of those 27 points were mainly Bam's fault?
