Who is the best passer? And by that I don't mean Lebron but PF's and Centers. Which big man averages most assists?

Boris Diaw is a wonderful distributor at his position, but at the flip side he also hangs out at the perimeter; doesn't get physical and barely gets any rebounds.

idk about BEST but shaq deserves a mention. He may not do any highlight reel passes or whathaveyou but he always seems to know when to get it to an open man.

Current: Garnett, Pau Gasol, Tim Duncan (yes, not in his prime anymore, but he is still a wonderful passer)

All-Time: Sabonis, Vlade Divac, Webber, Wilt Chamberlain...etc

Boris Diaw and Blake Griffin have the most assists per game. And Blake is just a rookie...

This isn't even debateable. Wilt was the greatest passing center in NBA history. He LED the NBA in assists in 67-68, and finished THIRD in 66-67. In the entire '67 post-season, he averaged 9.2 apg. And against Russell, in the ECF's that season, he averaged a triple-double, with a 21.6 ppg, 32.0 rpg, 10.0 apg series (on .556 shooting BTW.) He also had a 19 assist game against the Royals in the playoffs that year. Oh, and BTW, Wilt also has the ONLY double-triple-double game in NBA history, with a 22 point, 25 rebound, 21 assist game against Detroit in '68.

Current: Garnett

All-Time: Sabonis and Walton are cream of the crop.

Wilt is the best passer in NBA history, so I'd say he's probably the best passing big man:lol

Bill Walton
Pau Gasol
Bill Russell - they say he had an excellent outlet pass
Wilt Chamberlain
Kareem had high assist numbers, but it's partly attributable to the fast paced stacked Lakers

Horford.

Bogut's pretty good too.

Chamberlain lead the nba in assists.

Something Lebron has never done

Isn't it a consensus Chris Webber or Divac is the best passer for a PF/C?

Sabonis maybe?

Ben Simmons...no joke

Brad Daugherty was a great passer from the high post. But I'll concede to either Sabonis or Divac.

Sabonis for real big men.

Retired, top 5 would probably be: Arvydas Sabonis, Vlade Divac, Chris Webber, Brad Miller, Kevin Garnett, from those I've seen.

Currently, it'd be: Blake Griffin, Boris Diaw, Marc Gasol, Joakim Noah, Pau Gasol

In no specific order
