Who are the top post up players?

[dirk4mvp]

I remeber that. I was like damn brah you got owned.

[mystargtr34]

I would say Al Jefferson in terms of bigs, quite easily.

Kobe is the best non big man.

[TheMACHINE]

is there any other SG's that even post up?

[DAF86]

is there any other SG's that even post up?

I remember a time where Pop would post Manu up but that didn't last long.

[mystargtr34]

is there any other SG's that even post up?

Vince Carter and T-Mac both have/had comparable post games to Kobe.

[JamStone]

Not many, at least not many that do it more than occasionally and are actually adept at doing it.

Vince Carter, Joe Johnson but more in the midpost, Stephen Jackson if you call him a 2-guard.

Shaqtorious B.I.G.

Shaqtorious B.I.G.

Shaq has nothing over Hakeem in the post.

Does anyone in the Cavs even have post moves?

[DJB]

Greg Oden and Dwight Howard would be a battle of the post-up legends.

[Lars]

So Scola top ten post player or no?

[IronMexican]

So Scola top ten post player or no?

I'd say so. Probably anywhere from 7-10.

[21_Blessings]

Retired now, but Cuttino Mobley was money in the post for most of the latter part of his career.

[Xylus]

Amare is extremely talented offensively, but his post moves have always been lacking.

[TwinTowers]

And I can respect that opinion, even though it's different than mine's. Don't remember anybody really stopping Amare in the paint. It's his defense that sucks, but to me, he has awesome offense.

I think Amare is more of a face-up kind of player, he is great at attacking the basket off the dribble. The few times he posts-up, he always goes for a fade-away jumpers

[stretch]

when he wants to, Eddy Curry probably has the best post up offensive game in the NBA

[stretch]

Zach Randolph is a very good post player too... again, when he wants to be

[dallaskd]

Bosh.. cant believe he hasnt been mentioned.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Bosh is a face up scorer, he's got no post game at all.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Clueless.

Boris Diaw is actually a very good post up player. VERY good.

When you're too much of a made sissy to play in the post, your variety of effective post move (which I agree he has), don't matter.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

And it sucks, cause I've seen (and I know you've seen this DSF ) a motivated Diaw repeatedly abuse Duncan in the post. If they got that consistently, the 2007 championship woulda been a lock.

Btw - other than Nash, it looks like we agree on a lot of . Any Suns fan who recognizes Amare has no post game gets a +1 in my book.

[sonic21]

Duncan
Jefferson
Yao

[LakasRool4eva]

I dont no why all yall think Jefferson has such a good post game. I gess well see in a couple of weeks if hes good as you say........

[mystargtr34]

Scola might be in the top 2 or 3 in terms of pure post moves. He has a variety of spins and fakes. The only reason he probably doesnt rate with guys like Jefferson, Pau and Duncan in terms of his post game is because he isnt able to score as much, mainly due to him being undersized and lacking athleticism. But in terms of pure skill in the post, he might be better than all 3 of them.

Hes skilled as .
