lol.

That would be me. But this is on the basis of which player would you rather have in a 7 game playoff series. (The P.C board Draft competition)

Of course I'd take Diop over Collins looking ahead. But if I'm looking to win in the playoffs right now, I'd rather have Collins off my bench.

What does Diop do better? Block shots. Collins is a better low post defender, he's proven he can handle the playoff pressure and has been to the finals on 2 different occasions with New Jersey.

Diop

the Collins is tried with Eddy Curry as being the worst big in the league. Actually they are opposite sides of the same rope. Neither can rebound while Collins is all defense and Curry is all scoring.

They are like Bruce Willis and Sam Jackson in unbreakable.

Diop can be a serviceable starting Center when in shape. He will probably get a very suprising contract this off-season.

Diop is much better, he's a great rebounder and shotblocker, and he's a better low post defender pretty easily, he can handle big centers much better.

I'd love to have Diop coming off the Hornets bench, I don't want Collins at all.

Collins is finished.

The player he was once in his first years was as good as Diop sadly he's done now .

Diop actually brings energy off the bench. He is extremely limited offensively but a hustler and shotblocker. Collins is finished.

I'd reconsider if it was the Collins a couple of years ago but its Diop right now

Not me... Jason Collins' regression has actually been really depressing to watch.

How many players are starters in the NBA Finals their 2nd year and then get WORSE afterwards?

lol @ my own thread!...I think kosta knows now...he even changed this backup-center (jason collins->kwame brown) at the fantasy-draft-08 coz he had to recognize, that collins is crap
