Having watched Powe a lot here in Boston, the kid plays way bigger than his size, one word: toughness. Better defender than Landry too.
Agree, though I think Powe isn't nearly as gifted offensively as Landy is. Alot of fans are going to be real impressed with Landry this season with what he didn't show last year (jumper and driving to the bucket) on the offensive side of the ball.
I think Powe is more rugged/tougher/better man defender. However, I think Landry is more fluid/smoother/better overall basketball talent. I guess it all depends what you are looking for. Powe serves the Celts well and Landry serves us well. Maxiell Millsap Powe Landry Bass Those guys are all very similar to me. It'd be tough to choose 1 out of that group but I'd probably take Millsap from that group followed by Maxiell and then a tossup between the later 3 with Landry/Bass before Powe.
Powe is better in the post, both offensively and defensively. Landry is a better finisher and has a jumper.
