OP preparing himself for the worst-case scenario of their team's ongoing offseason and so, scouts for a big replacement as Kobe, as we all know, can't live without one especially now that he has that current injury of his.
Yes I am a Kobe fan because he plays for the Lakers, like Sir Alex of Man U, no player is bigger than the club... but if he was on another team id probably hate him as much as you do.

This season. IMHO
1. Timmy
who cares bout the rest?
tee, hee.
He is one of the top 3 centers in the league.
I'd rank him right above Andrew Bynum and right below Jason Collins.
Always loved his game. Expected a lot out of him when the season started. Shockingly didn't live up to his potential during the season. Now he's showing everyone he's the best center in the league tbh.. His ceiling is 20/20 type guy.
Brad Daugherty tbh.
Roy Hibbert had trouble last year when the Heat switched Joel Anthony on him, tbh..it'll be interesting to see if Spoelstra does it again, at the expense of their offense..
I disagree that Hibbert has the fundamentals as good as a 26 year old MVP Duncan. Duncan was much better than current Hibbert especially in movement, footwork and post moves.
Overrated. Duncan-wannabe that doesn't fit the bill...
not even close , hibbert is much slower and less athletic around the basket, plus duncan can shoot those 15+ footers. Hibbert looks like a beast vs miami because they literally have no interior presence. Prime Duncan would run rings around him.
At least he's a Duncan wannabe rather than a Garnett wannabe. Anthony Davis says he is modelling his game around Garnett, which is a mistake. He's gotta go the Duncan route and learn post footwork/fundamentals, and he'll dominate the NBA in a few years.
He's the biggest most skilled body in the current NBA. If he can learn to throw his body around like he did in game 4, he could easily be best bigman in the league.
fat Gasol is being considered and he has no post play whatsoever
Dwight, doesn't even have a pair of balls
unfortunately I don't see him flourishing under the tutelage of Frank Voguel![]()
anybody that thinks a big man that shot 45% from the field with a 17 PER this season is an elite big man or even close..
Hibbert had only 4 good/great games out of the 12 playoff games prior to the Heat(against a good Hawks frontcourt and average Knicks frontcourt)..he's a great C against Miami, and an above average C against the rest of the league, nothing special, tbh..
He's good, but not great. To echo what everybody here has already stated, he's only looking this good because of Miamis lack of interior D.
I mean I'm glad that he's giving a huge amount of credit to Duncan for working on his game but come on thats no reason for anybody to crown him as "the best center in the league" or "his post moves are as good as Duncans when he was his age"
Oh how people on this board quickly forget
His defense was pretty consistently elite this year tho..
Send Hibbert back to Daugherty's time and he's an average big man, imo. A James Donaldson type.
Yeah...some people are getting way too excited about a big that shoots 43%...
at these dummies ignoring the OP's question.
his question is where you rank him among bigs today. He is easily one of the best.
why? because bigs suck today. When 37 year old ty Duncan rules, you know the bigs are .
LMAO ppl bringing up the bigs of olden. Stick to the question and you will see Hibbert can easily become the best bigman in the game for years to come.
now how is that overrrated??
Coward is overrated.
weren't you the one who gave me over having an account there, despite the fact that i have an astounding 62 posts there?
Hibbert is a 12-8 guy that is single-handedly giving the Heat all sorts of nightmares. He looked like the best player on the floor in game 4. How the do the people look at the Heat like this unbeatable juggernaut? They're a phenomenal team, sure. Matchup nightmares across the floor, but far from being invincible. This is why Boston gave them issues last year, Indiana gave them issues last year, and the beat up Bulls didn't go down so easily.
