Re: Best Passing Big Men

Some of these names are getting funny... Are we talking "all time" or last month?

Re: Best Passing Big Men

I thought it was all time or at least names that could be mentioned with all time greats and then we got Noah and I got confused lol

Re: Best Passing Big Men

Agreed. Not as an all-timer, but definitely a very good passer for a center.

Yeah, not all-time, but definitely within the decade. Nearly 5 APG some seasons, too.

Re: Best Passing Big Men

IMO, players like Brad Daugherty, Brad Miller, and Pau Gasol are as good as passers as the iconic passing big men, such as Walton or Sabonis, but are perceived by many to be on a lower tier for some reason. I don't know if it's because of them being over shadowed by other players on their team, lower usage %, or a lack of memorable passing highlights in big time playoff series, but they're totally underrated, IMO.

Re: Best Passing Big Men

I'm surprised only like one person has brought up Duncan. I always thought that was one of his biggest strengths.

Dirk shouldn't really be mentioned among the best in NBA history or anything, but he's kind of underrated as far as passing goes.

Re: Best Passing Big Men

I saw Chamberlain mentioned and he was a shoot-first player. Regardless, he is the only center to lead the League in assists for a season.

He also holds the 76ers single-game record with 21 assists--tied with Maurice Cheeks.

Off the top of my head Vlade & C-Webb.

Re: Best Passing Big Men

Obviously my obvious answer is obvious but I will also say Arvydas Sabonis.

I would assume the obvious but I don't want to allow assumptions grey the obvious causing obviously flawed assumptions regarding your answer, which may be obvious to some but more of just an assumption to others. In either case, assumptions obviously won't get us to your obvious answer assuming its obvious to any of our assumptions.

Re: Best Passing Big Men

One of the best passers in the league right now. Has to be Marc Gasol. He would do wonders in the Kings offense back in the day.

But my favorite passers has to be Webber and Vlade. But I'm going to go with Kevin Garnett. I remember him averaging 4 to 5 dimes for several season.


Edit: Oh a funny note... When you say big man does that mean Magic and LeBron could be in this converastion? lol
