Positional Rankings: Centers
Aug. 29, 2006

The slow extinction of the traditional center in the NBA has never looked so
inevitable.
This has been hinted at for years. Look at the clues: fewer traditional big
men worthy of All-Star Game berths; Shaquille O'Neal calling himself the LCL
(Last Center Left); San Antonio, Dallas, Phoenix and most of the Western
Conference opting to utilize small ball throughout last year's playoffs.
Now comes the greatest indication of all: the rankings below.
LCL leads the pack despite coasting through regular seasons, while Yao Ming
and Amare Stoudemire are coming back from injuries. Those guys are basically
the cream of the crop.
The center position has seen better days. No wonder teams are phasing them
out. True quality bigs are scarce.
So the entire class is on the same page, the way I do rankings here is
simple: Who would you rather have on your team this season? Upside is taken
into account, but only for the upcoming campaign. Whether you're a bargain or
a bad contract doesn't matter. Easy enough to follow, right?
Here are the best of the dying breed:
18. Joel Przybilla, Portland: His decision to return to the Blazers rather
than head to Detroit was puzzling, but it's clear he's a patient man.
Provided he stays healthy, he should be the backbone defensively as Nate
McMillan continues his rebuilding project.
20. Jamaal Magloire, Portland: It's unclear where he fits in with Portland,
but it wouldn't be surprising to see him help some playoff contender
following the trade deadline. This guy was an All-Star in 2004 and still has
plenty left. He's an above-average rebounder and shot blocker.
