ESPN Top 10 Centers

[Don Quixote]

And I'm okay with Shaq being as high as he was. You really think he wouldn't have averaged 50 pts., 25 boards a game in the 1960s? And I don't really care that some no-talent hip-hop with the initials SJ didn't vote for David.

While there are some people out there who wake up each day angry (over what? I dunno ... ), I don't define my happiness over what happens in Washington, or who likes my team, for that matter. This is America. Life is good.

Oh well ... this thread is pretty much dead. I will say that Mavs Fan, as usual, is good for a laugh. Gosh, it will be high comedy to see them choke in the playoffs again. Or, at best, they win. And we'll say, "So what? Little brother got his ring. Whoopdedo."

David Robinson for President

[Don Quixote]

LOL do you even know what thread you're posting in? Read the le. We've been discussing DAVID ROBINSON and the TOP CENTERS. Someone made one throwaway diss about me being a Mavs fan, so I returned the favor. Other than that this has been about David Robinson and other great centers, and all the discussion and debate that it has spawned. Not jack to do with the failures of the Dallas Mavericks. So maybe I'm so "angry" because you have no clue where you're posting at, yet you insist on being a jerk.

If you'd like to talk down to Mavs fans and actually be on-topic about it, there's plenty of threads in the NBA News forum. Have fun.

You guys are a hoot.

So, what were David Robinson's career stats against the Mavericks? What were they in the '01 playoff series, which S.A. won 4-1? How about the '03 playoffs? Those, I think, would be relevant to the discussion.

For that matter, how has Shaq fared against Dallas over his career? How did Hakeem do? I'm sure someone here has access to those stats.

Probably kicked the out of the Mavs. not probably, definitely did. Both of them. The Mavericks sucked for a very long time. That's not some hidden mystery. I didn't bring up a thing about how good the Mavs are/were. Moving on...

Oh, now Mavs Fan wants to move on, now that we're talking about how 3 of the greatest centers beat them like red-headed sisters repeatedly in the 90s and into the 21st century. So I take it we should go back to bringing up crude insults involving our relatives or feminine hygiene, or copying some anti-Republican screed someone got off the internet?

I have a good idea for a relevant study: The 10 greatest games played against the Mavs by David, Hakeem, Shaq, and ... Ewing. Anyone have the stats for those?

No, I want to move on because there's nothing else to discuss. They beat the out of the Mavericks. End of story. You tell me what possible stance anybody could take against this? If you want to rehash it, go ahead. And nobody will give a , because it doesn't matter.

No, we should go back to bringing up lame fake letters to Mark Cuban or copying some anti-Democrat screed someone got off Fox News.

[mardigan]

6)Keith Closs
7)Greg Kite
7)Jim McIlvane
8)Joe Klein
9)Eric Montross
10)Shawn Bradley

Honorable mention..Jack Haley, Brad Lohaus (even though Brad wasnt terrible, just goofy as )

BUT Muresan had some great games, but he had lots of physical problems

LOL great list. Actually you could make a top 10 worst centers list and have nothing but Mavs centers on there. Shawn Bradley, Cherokee Parks, Greg Dreiling, Loren Meyer, Chris Anstey, Uwe Blab, etc.

[mardigan]

I didnt include Bowie because he was at least somewhat productive, but he sucked donkey balls

But Muresan was good, if it wasn't for the injuries.... he had some great games...

I will leave Parks out of it because he had sweet tats. Spurs have had some bad ones too, Dwayne, Parks, Bill Curley, Purdue.....

[mardigan]

Yea I just looked up his stats, in 96 he averaged 15 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks in 73 games and still had time to star in Billy Crystals best movie ever
