Is Luke Walton more valuable than Trevor Ariza?

[THEMVP]

Why Phil Jackson likes to play him more than Ariza? Ariza has a better all-around games, He can defend better, shoot, hustling, ect.

Why Ariza gets more minutes than Luke next season?

Luke fits into the system better and he is a better passer/rebounder and can bang with the bigger sf's.

Ariza is more athletic, and the better scorer though.

I'd take Luke, but Ariza obviously has more upside.

[nookie]

No! Ariza is just recovering from his injury and he is a lot better than Walton in terms of defense.

[StevenR]

Luke is the worst player in the NBA so you'll definitely see Ariza playing more next year. The reason he didn't play much this year is becuase he was recovering from injury.

about time somebody said something luke is a bum he cant shoot has no handle and gets beat on defense all the time just a waste of min that ariza should be getting very good defender and can finish at the rim.
