Is Vucevic the best offensive center in the league?

[Jameerthefear]

Thread title.

[ZMonkey11]

Perhaps. But I think Brook Lopez is still the best offensive big man in the game.

[outbreak]

jumping the gun I think, Lopez is better, Gasol and Bogut can be better when healthy I think too. Bosh and Duncan play a lot of at the centre spot too these days. Bynum if he ever gets healthy again.

If Vucevic plays this aggressive and assertive all year though he'll be up there for sure.

[Johnny Jones]

Al Jefferson
Nikola Pekovic
DMC
Brook Lopez
Al Horford
Marc Gasol

Are all better offensive players than Vucci mane.

[Jameerthefear]

Al Jefferson
Nikola Pekovic - No
DMC - No
Brook Lopez - Arguable
Al Horford - No
Marc Gasol - No

Are all better offensive players than Vucci mane.

I haven't seen the Magic play since they were in the Finals.

They should have more small market teams on tv.

Is he better than Brooke?

Didn't follow the Dwightmare?

[Le Shaqtus]

No, but he's young and can definitely get better. He's an incredible rebounder, and if he can get some kind of post game with his size he'll be a top 5 center.

Nikola has some nice post moves. Have you ever seen him play?

DeMarcus is extremely talented he just takes way too many midrange shots.

Horford has a nice jumper and is pretty good in the post.

Marc Gasol is an insane passer from the high post, he can hit the midrange shot with ease, and he can go in the low post and score.

Naw I skipped that

He's young, he looks like he will be a much better all round player but Brook is still a much better scorer at this point. At the moment Vuc is a great rebounded and when his mid range shot is falling he becomes hard to defend because he has great foot work in the post. This season he is rolling much better on picks too, last year he seemed a bit timid and didn't finish well at times but he's looked good so far this year. His interior d needs work still though but he has time to work on that and he isn't a liability.

I've seen all of them play, and I can honestly say that offensively, Vucci is better.
Both Marc and Cousins shoot low %s for bigman. Horford I haven't seen too much (who watches the Hawks?)

[A Roc 23]

No. Best offensive center includes considering scoring, passing and setting screens. Gasol, Jefferson, Lopez, Horford and Cousins are better at this point when you consider all categories.

Like I said DMC takes way too many midrange shots. He is extremely talented in the low post.

Marc Gasol's FG% is naturally going to be down because of how much he plays in the high post.

Vuc was inconsistent last season though, some games he couldn't get anything to fall and he vanished in the post he needs to give a larger sample

Wrong thread.

Lopez
#1 in scoring for Cs at 21ppg (27 per 36)
59% FG
64% TS
80% FT
30+ PER (#2 behind Paul)
All in 28 mpg

Also Vucevic did most his work against Evans, Blatche, KG since the Nets don't want unnecessary fouls on Lopez. Evans and Blatche are pretty bad defensively. KG barely played.

Howard, Gasol and Lopez are the only 3 centers I think are clearly better on offense. Vucevic is a stud at 23 tho.

Vucevic is better on offense then both Howard and Gasol.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Zaza, followed closely by Lopez and Jefferson.

[ChuckOakley]

Vucevic is better on offense then both Howard and Gasol.
Howard can take over on offense by forcing the other team to adjust. He gets the opposition in foul trouble and gets the three point shooters open looks. His TOs and FTs suck but he can score 20+ points on 60% for a season and take a team to the Finals being the focal point offensively.

M.Gasol is the best passing center and thus you can run a dangerous offense through him. He's also underused offensively having to share the paint with Randolph.

I guess you could say Vucevic might the best scoring center (besides Lopez) but overall as an offensive player a player can have a bigger impact on an offense than just scoring and those 3 do. Cousins has potential to be better as well.

[HarryCallahan]

No. Not top 5 either.

Why are you such a Hawk hater lil nikka?

Wait til Horford slips that Dominican **** all up inside Vucevic on Saturday.

[andremiller07]

This Horford shit's all over him as well as at least 5-6 other C's, dudes getting crazy overrated.

[Bigsmoke]

^^

Brook is a better offensive center.

Stop trolling

[longtime lurker]

Anyone with the nickname "Vucci Mane" is a fvcking winner in my books

[HarryCallahan]

Yeah, I like him, and think he has the chance to be the best two-way C in the league, but he's getting very overrated by some people.

fvck the hawks. can't stand 'em. we coming for that ass.

[Brokenbeat]

He's an utter badman, and I've got him on most of my fantasy teams, lol (same with oladipo). The Magic are going to be ridiculous in 2-3 years.
