Top 10 centers of all time

Hakeem was another level. No 7 footer has ever moved like that guy did.

Sadly it looks like no all time blocks records will ever be broken anytime soon with the new 3 point game and no one taking mid range shots.

What about Steve Scheffler, he was a bench warmer for the Sonics during a time they had no quality centres?

Your spelling is like a 6yo. This is Australia!

Shaq number 1 or 2 for mine, but it is too hard to number 1-10! A clear top 5 Shaq, Kareem, Olajuwon, Wilt and Russell but too hard to number them. You could argue a case that the entire list "changed the game" at a point in time. Shaq with power and agility, Olajuwon versatility, Wilt size and strength, Russell with smarts and changing the game defensively and of course they banned the dunk in college because of Kareem!

Others to garner top 10 mention:
Walton, Mikan, Cowens, Elvin Hayes, Sabonis, Mutombo, Ben Wallace (DPOY 4 times), Alonzo Mourning.

For his 1-game cameo as centre in the finals, Magic did well. A career ave of something over 40 in pts, got plenty of boards and still dished a bucket-load of assists, too. Was that '84?

Hakeem definitely getting the respect that he deserves. I feel Admiral is up too high on the list but it's a great conversation topic.

Interesting that there was NBA at 50:top 50 players of all time centers that missed out such as Dave Cowens, George Mikan (changed the rules to stop him), Willis Reed and Bill Walton... any love for those guys?
