Here is a piece on Best #1 off all time.

They go on to talk about David Robinson, Hakeem, Webber, Oscar Robinson, Bill Walton, Anthony Davis, K Irving, Shaq, LEbron

They think Fultz has a chance to crack the top 30 list.   That is kinda cool.

Goes to show the value of centers is at an all-time low.

Maybe? I mean Draymond plays Center a fair bit and is pretty darn good. Would definitely say they have to be more mobile but I think guys like Davis, Gobert, Porzingis and Embiid are as valuable as they have ever been.

Centers of final 16 teams in the playoffs

ZaZa Pachulia
Clint Capela
Al Horford/Amir Johnson
Tristan Thompson
Rudy Gobert
Marc Gasol
Joseph Nurkic
Robin Lopez
Thon Maker
Jonas Valuncias
Marcin Gortat
Dwight Howard
D'andre Jordan
Dwayne Dedmon/Pau Gasol
Steve Adams
Myles Turner

I mean, that has to be the weakest position in the league right now across good teams?
There is definitely a lot of potential with Towns, Embiid, Cousins, Davis etc. However, will they be good enough to lead their respective teams into the conference finals or finals the next few years? Ever? I would say Embiid would be most likely if he could stay healthy, but I don't think he will ever have many seasons of over 60 games.
