Poe Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Two great role players, IMO. Who's better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish7718 Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Haha I wish there was an 'other' or 'neither' choice. I said varejao he comes off the bench with high energy and does a lot of the dirty work other players don't do. Haslem is better scorer but as far as a player on my team I'll take Varejao.

kingfish Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Haslem, hes got a much better offensive game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Haslem's offensive game dominates Varejao. Plus, I hate Varejao with a passion. So Haslem gets my vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revis Island Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Haslem, He's just as good if not better than Varejao at rebounding. Haslem is also way better at shooting mid-range jumpers and is the better post defender in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWaLL Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 same. [expletive]ing curly haired homoHaha yeah. And his fake [expletive] flopping pisses me off. Not sure how he draws offensive fouls so easily with his horrible flop acting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 UD without question. His offensive game is superior and he's a better all around defender. Plus he doesn't flop like a little [expletive]. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland's Finest Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Verajao is a solid defender and is VERY underrated because people are still stuck on the fact that he "flops". It's not flopping; it's getting the job done and he hustles and works his [expletive] off to get that rebound and prevent a big play from the opposing team. I said Haslem is more valuable because imo he's their glue guy. Verajao I said was better overall...maybe homer but meh. Verajao has a better future at steak. He had a huge step in improving his mid-range last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not flopping its getting the job done? Just stop it, dude flops more than anyone I've ever seen. Vlade Divac v2. Haslem already had a good mid-range game and is a better rebounder/defender than Varejao. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleveland's Finest Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 (edited) LMAO look who's homering also! Nope Verajao is easily a better defender. He can gaurd multiple positions and is very mobile. Also, you see his chemistry with LeBron...Haslem and Wade have nowhere as close chemistry wise on the court. Every game you see LeBron throw a sharp pass to Andy for the layup. Edited August 12, 2009 by Cleveland's Finest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verejao is a flopper not a defender. Haslem is a better defender by far and he and D have incredible chemistry together. Have you ever watched a Heat game before?

Force Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 What does chemistry have to do when deciding who's the better player? lol. Give me Haslem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poe Posted August 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Hey, chill out. Both of them are solid players that get the job done. Regardless of whether Varejao flops or is making defensive plays out of pure hustle, either way he is making a positive impact for his team. He wouldn't ever be in the starting line up if he wasn't being productive. As far as this whole thing about "chemistry" goes, Varejao is very good at moving without the ball, and LeBron passes with such great precision that if the defender leaves the smallest amount of space, Varejao gets an easy lay up. On the other hand, Wade draws a lot of attention when he has the ball and is so quick driving to the basket, and since Haslem is active setting screens and has enough awareness to always be in the right place at the right time, he normally winds up with getting wide open mid-range J's all game long. I find to believe anyone would think that two guys that have been on the same team together for over 6 years now and have been on the starting lineup together for at least 350 games to not have good chemistry. There's a chance that they may spend the rest of their career on the same team. I would personally take Haslem between the two, but I guess that is to be expected since I'm a Heat fan.
