Kevon Looney is so badly underrated. Dude plays great defense and gets nearly 10 boards a night. Shoots 63% from the field and was crucial to the Dubs title run. Should be around 15 ,- 20 rank at the worst.🎉
@@aidenmeyerbasschannel not in the slightest. I think that Looney is constantly underrated. He's the forgotten player for the Warriors and a very good defender and rebounder. The system in Golden State is not set up for him to score a ton of points and that's not what he's good at either. He is a better all-round player than both Timelord and Steven Adams. I would say he is right in the middle of the overall centers list. I put him somewhere around 15. 16. Nikola Vucevic, Bulls 17. Jonas Valanciunas, Pelicans 18. Kevon Looney, Warriors 19. Jusuf Nurkic, Trail Blazers 20. Steven Adams, Grizzlies This is a sporting news list.
@@mateoedwin he is going into his second season as an undersized center and hasn't played a single minute so no... it definitely isn't to any real fan knowing that he may very well get injured again and then again and then again just like every other big man in nba history with foot issues maybe its obvious to someone who hasn't followed the game for more then a season or two and has no clue about the history of the league like yourself 😂😂😂 he may very well be better but there is a good chance that he won't as well if you thought about what you were gonna say for more then 3 seconds maybe you would have come to this realization yourself
Wendel Carter Jr is so underated simply for the fact he is the one guy who does well guarding Jokic. now if you look at the numbers, Jokic still averages 55% when guarded by Carter Jr. You might think I'm lying, but as a nuggets fan, every time they've played Carter Jr genuinely makes Jokic work hard.
Pop has already said Zach Collins will start at Center this season. Small sample size, but he did average 14.6 PPG (37% 3pt) 7.6 RPG and 3.8 APG in 26 games after the Poeltl trade. In SA, we’d like to know where h’d rank on this list.
@@DaintyBroom2233 For sure! As long as Collins is healthy, I don’t see any reason to ever play Wemby at Center. He’s great complimentary player and enforcer to watch Victor’s back.
@@Mdksupreme1 You don't watch Victor outside his summer leauge games do you. He play's mostly like a PF in his French leauge and even in the summer leauge that was his style, although i agree with you that he should be a center, he can definetly play PF and most likely will his first season
Nurkic at 29 is crazy bro, I get it he is paid a lot but averaging 14 10 on good efficiency and also being a good playmaking center gets you higher than 29 for sure…
Like cmon Jokic is #1 and bro plays bad if not terrible defense, with the way game is changed now, defense is way more important for guards and wings to defend iso play and outside shots..
@@amcl2098 🧢… Jokic is an above average defender and has been for years casual fans and ppl who care about eye test too much don’t want to believe it but the advanced numbers and results speak for themselves
Kevon Looney is better than everyone you listed under 13. Above Vucevic. And before you say "delusional Warriors fan", I want you to analyze what wins games. Pulling down 20 rebounds in 3 games wins your team a playoff series. Navigating dribble handoffs masterfully opens up your offense in a way where you don't need to score to win. Being a facilitator in the short roll helps you win. Switching 1-5 helps you win. Knowing key rotations on defense helps you win. His value is wildly apparent in the playoffs, and people forget or look at his regular season numbers as if that's all you get. Who cares he doesn't score. He provides REAL TEAM WINNING VALUE, and shows up big every playoffs.
Appreciate the love for Steven Adams and your ability to look past the box scores for him. It's also funny that he was traded for JV (who you ranked directly below him), along with a Lakers first that was SO close to transferring as a lottery pick, and moving up from 17 to 10 in 2021. Unfortunately, Ziaire looks like a bust thus far...make or break year for him this year. NO also dumped Bledsoe's contract, so I guess that helped for them, too.
this list got kinda messed up in the middle... like nic claxton is with Kessler's name on screen, also where is 17, is everyone supposed to be one position down from 16 to 11? this way nic claxton fits at 11...
Honestly Nurkic is probably lower as a portland fan. Would definitely rather Zubac, Gafford or Plumlee over him. I don’t know if I’m ranking him so low due to him hardly playing or his contract but just don’t rate him since he broke his leg
Did this guy really just say Jakob Peortle isn't that good at defense and is better at offense? And you woudln't want him anchoring your defense? Both those things are untrue IMO
@@raphaelovicstrassovic9440 His offense is decent, he does all the big man things you want offensively like pop-a-shots, put backs, lobs, and he's actually great at getting to the rim and has good post mooves. But I agree he's making money cuz of his defense, and his offense is like serviceable or good at best
Kessler has played one year lmao Rudy is obviously worse than he was as a dpoy, but saying kessler is better is a stretch with a small sample on kessler. Also gobert isn’t a bad player, its just the fact that he has to play with KAT and they just don’t work together
@@kennethxu1789 that’s the point. Gobert was a great player a few years ago, but Kessler was arguably the best rookie player last year. Just look up and compare their stats. And no, 74 games isn’t a small sample size
Heavily valuing mitchel robinson playoff dominance but not kevon looneys when kevon did it on sabonis who’s better then Mobley or Allen is showing the Knicks bias. Love the vid tho
I think you messed up your rankings man. You said Victor at 14 but the text on video said 13. I guess it went all the way to Nic Claxton. Check it man.
I disagree with this list because I don't understand your criteria. If you want to talk about impact to winning, which it should, then how is Kevon Looney not in Top 30? Not only does he starts as center for the Warriors for the past 3 years, he has played every single game as the second longest games played streak only second to Mikal Bridges since you keep mentioning availability is your greatest ability. He led the league in offensive rebounds in a team that is just uncautious with its threes, can you imagine how hard it is to predict where the ball will end up off the rim? People only remembers Curry's performance vs the Kings last year, but Looney averaged 15 rebounds in those 7 games. Looney Tunes also had a game winner vs the Hawks last year in the double OT during the regular season, how many centers can you say has hit a game winner? How many centers on this list has 3 rings? Outside of your top 10, most of your centers either plays on a bad team or is just a regular starting center that either has some offense or has some defense skills. If thats the case, you might as well put James Wiseman on this list because indivdiually without looking at anything else, he qualifies to be Top 30 in the league with the potential in the future.
Wemby over steven adams is inexcusably bad take. Steven post injury was on track setting a historic standard when it comes to offensive rebounding. Come on man
Prime Ad> Prime embiid but currently it's no contest, just because he got a fake mvp and sucks in the playoffs doesen't mean AD is better. AD isn't even a top 10 player currently while Embiid is a top 5. He's not a likeable person but people are acting like he didn't lead the league in scoring for 2 years in a row
"Embiid disappears a little bit during the playoffs"
My guy thats an understatement. Not just a little bit, he does disappear
The highest ppg dropoff in nba history lol 33 to 23 ppg. “little bit” is a wild statement for sure
"little bit" bro straight up disappeared instantly
also not just this year, he's done this every season and he's gonna turn 30 next season
