Giving Wilcox the same minutes he will output better stats than Gooden and stay within his position, maybe he can't make FT but again he sticks with his position.

1. No, Chris Wilcox can NOT make the J's Gooden makes. Wilcox simply has no jumper. It's not an issue of taking it at all.
2. Look at the FG % numbers. For a guy who plays on the perimeter, and doesnt have a good J, he shoots DAMN good. 49% from the field is awesome, especially when you say he strays on the perimeter too much.
3. Again, it is NOT an issue of playing time. Thats such a lame cop out and there is absolutely NOTHING to support that. When Wilcox started for the Clips, he averaged 6 rebounds in 30 minutes. Clearly, his lack of rebounding is NOT because of a lack of PT. HE's simply just not good at it. He can't play defense either.
Ill give Wilcox the fact that he's a better offensive player, but not by much. Gooden is on a completely different world than WIlcox as a rebounder though. It's not even a comparison. Neither play defense.
WIlcox would be lucky to end up being as successful as Gooden is when he moves on elsehwere. Gooden is a proven, very good NBA player. All Wilcox is is physical talent with upside, with no desire to do anything but score.
