Prime Dwight is the best Centre in modern basketball

[retaxis]

Bogut is the best in GSW but Dwight does everything better

- block shots
- steals
- bum and spin alley oops
- finishing against minute defenders

Dwight was never a Shaq or Olujuwon but he is a modern PNR player who benefited the best from that system

if by modern you mean 09-11 years only then sure.

dwight peaked in his early 20s.

since then, he's only gotten slower every year with no new skills added.

An ancient Shaq was destroying prime Dwight back in 09.

Shaq was better but that doesnt mean ha hasnt been the best for the last 7~ years. Is just that his best when compared to the true greats is crappy.

Yeah pretty much Dwight is 2nd/3rd tier center when measured against other great centers.

Dwight hasn't been the best the past few seasons. He was the best for maybe 4 seasons.

[HOoopCityJones]

Dwight was the best Center from 08-10.

Seeing as Shaq wasn't skilled and his only post move was backing down smaller guys with his entire weight which is now considered an offensive foul I don't think it would change how modern basketball is played. He would have to actually develop his offensive game and not rely entirely on his God Given Talent.

You underestimate the footwork of Shaq. And no, backing down smaller guys is not an offensive foul.

You saying Shaq wouldn't be a dominant Center in any era? :facepalm

[GOATJono]

When DeAndre hits his free throws at a good percentage, he gonna be beasting and feasting on GSW.

[FireDavidKahn]

Next year Towns is going to be the best. He already is a top 5.
