Offensively not a lot really, maybe slightly better at getting to the hole and finishing due to being bigger as stronger.. But he's a little better defensively and is much more versatile defensively due to his size and strength..

I mean if you're judging by there skill set and stats or whatever they are pretty much even and should have very similar ratings.. But it's the little things I think Deron should have the edge in, which I think would give him a better overall

This past season really hurt how people view Deron, I'm hoping now that he has what should be a good team again he will bounce back to his PG supremacy... He had he worst year this past season due to having to take more shots, his FG% dropped, shot numbers up to high, and assist numbers down.. Before that he was actually considered the top PG in the NBA by both ESPN and NBA.com

Let us not forget that Dwight scores most of his points under basket or from oops because he has a weak post game. Bynum played behind a future hall of famer and a great big and yet he still puts up similar numbers to Dwight. Listen, I am by NOOOOO means a Laker fan or Philly fan, but that kid Bynum is really under rated when compared to Dwight. Watch this video, they brought up good points about both. I honestly prefer Bynum.

Well your analysis is missing alot. First off playing with Kobe and Gasol makes things alot easier for Bynum. When Kobe missed those 6-7 games this year Bynum's PPG went up slightly but his FG% suffered due to teams not having to account for Kobe. What teams are keying in on Jason Richardson that way? Also if you use Synergy it will show you that Dwight is 2nd overall in Pick and Roll finishing efficiency at 74% and Bynum is 57% which is about avg for a big man. They are roughly equal on post up looks and we arent even going to discuss defense because we all know the difference is night and day between the two. Also the 3rd option excuse is moot because 3rd options arent the main focus for defenses and both guys avg the same amount of FGs a game. Only thing Bynum has on Dwight is FT shooting.

I guess man. Nothing about Deron's defense jumps out at me. CP3 always gets knocked because he's smaller but his IQ is much much higher.

Another thing, never use a video from First Take to back up anything sports related. That program is a sideshow that is 90 percent entertainment. Very little substance.

He does have a great IQ I think they both due.. And CP3 also has great steal numbers. I'm just looking at it from a match up stand point.. Deron is very versatile defensively like a Rondo or Billups type of player... You can't go wrong with either of the two.. But everybody here seems to think D Rose should be way up there.. If you don't take Deron you take CP3, they're easily the top 2 in my book

CP3 is a much better on ball defender than Dwill. Dwill's on ball defense is around the same as Steve Nash. Funny thing Nash is actually better against PnR looks than Dwill is.
