Simply put, bigs can get away with not being as skilled as smaller players

can. A guard has to shoot, playmake, or virtually everything else to be in the league. But a big can just be tall and a rim protector/ put back man and make something of a back up role to maybe starter, depending on his height.

True. Master of head games for sure

TNT

Rodman was a huge student of the game.

Harden and LeBron are both unbelievably lazy at times.

Lazy for sure but supremely talented? TNT would say no

TNT

Jose Ortiz?

RalphWiggam

Lamar Odom could have been fantastic I think.

That's a good one

TNT

Rasheed Wallace

lilpenny

8/5/20 6:33pm

Another good one

TNT

Andrew Bynum was good until he was distracted by bowling

I'm Dynamite

8/5/20 6:41pm

He seemed plenty competitive to me.

Charles Darwin

8/5/20 7:07pm

Do you feel the need, the need for sheed?

I'm Dynamite

8/5/20 6:34pm

Not sure if he's the best, but Boris Diaw has to be considered.

Shaq

More of a Jazz Fan

Definitely. Shaq has my vote

Dwight Howard for sure.

Andrew Bynum had incredible potential, but didn't care about the game. Not the

Selfish player maybe. But AI played his guts out

TNT

8/5/20 6:45pm

Oh for sure. The quote just came to mind. If AI was 6 ‘6, would have been top 5

8/5/20 6:50pm

Kirilenko gotta be near the top.

SinkingQuffa

8/5/20 6:48pm

He was great for quite a few years though

pink22

8/5/20 6:53pm

I'd say "a few". Mostly on D & for hustle points.

SinkingQuffa

8/5/20 7:06pm

He was never going to great offensively.

pink22

8/5/20 7:09pm

Not as a traditional wing — but as essentially a mobile PF on offense

SinkingQuffa

8/5/20 7:13pm

Tracy McGrady

SpecialKC

8/5/20 6:48pm

He & Vince Carter — things just came a bit too easy.

SinkingQuffa

8/5/20 6:52pm

Problem with Mcgrady is he became so Injury prone

Len Bias, is he the drug guy? Died very young from drug use.

Y05

8/5/20 6:59pm

Never played. But if we go that direction of could have been, but drugs, Chris Washburn has to be there near the top.

No touching

8/5/20 7:07pm

Javele McGee is probably one of the most athletic guys in the league.

crack

8/5/20 7:00pm

What was the deal with Ron Mercer? Lack of effort or just not that good?

Y05

8/5/20 7:00pm

Allen “we’re talking about practice” Iverson

SierraCoug

8/5/20 7:01pm

Derrick Coleman.

SpiffCoug

8/5/20 7:05pm

He was my #2. A lot of people thought he was better than Mailman

bluelands

8/5/20 7:18pm

Add Reggie Lewis as a potential on this list.
