3:13pm, 7 August 2025【Basketball】
Jokic rose to 7th! After another season, the US media "hoopshype" posted a list of the top 20 NBA centers, among which O'Neal only ranked fourth, Howard ranked 15th, and Yao Ming unfortunately lost.
Fifth place: Big Dream
Honors: 2 championships, 2 FMVP, 1 MVP, 6 Fightings, 12 All-Stars, 2 DPOYs and 5 Defensive Fightings
Dream is the most comprehensive two-way center in NBA history, and is also the only player in NBA history to rank in the top 15 in terms of scoring, rebounding, blocking and stealing.
Da Meng won DPOY many times on the defensive end, and Da Meng had his own dream steps on the offensive end. Even after retirement, a large number of active stars have found Da Meng to learn this technique.
More importantly, the era in which Dameng was exactly the most glorious period for center players, and he defeated a group of superstars in the same position and won the championship twice, which made him enter the top five and even qualify for a higher position.
4th place: O'Neal
Honors: 4 championships, 3FMVP, 1 MVP, 8 first-team, 15 All-Stars, 3 defensive second-team
O'Neal is one of the most dominant centers in NBA history. Although the "Young Shark" was crushed by Dameng in the early stage of his career, after joining the Lakers to gain weight, O'Neal became unstoppable.
His terrifying body shape and strength, combined with flexible footsteps and delicate technology, made the opponent unable to limit O'Neal in the inside, and had to adopt extreme operations such as "shark-cutting tactics", and even the league was forced to modify some rules.
Even so, O'Neal still led the Lakers to win three consecutive championships, winning three FMVPs, becoming the only superstar to complete this feat after Jordan.
Third place: Chamberlain
Honors: 2 championships, 1 FMVP, 4 MVPs, 7 first matches, 13 All-Stars, 2 defense first matches
Chamberlain is the top data monster in NBA history. He has completed the feat of 100 points in a single game. Even if the competition in his era is limited, his dominance and influence are still worthy of the top three positions.
Especially in terms of the number of MVPs, Chamberlain has a huge advantage over O'Neal. In addition, Chamberlain has also won the championship after improving the league's competitiveness in the later stage of his career, so he ranks third.
Second place: Bill Russell
Honors: 11 championships, 5MVP, 11 best teams, 12 All-Stars
"Lord of the Rings" Bill Russell is the real winner, which is the biggest difference between him and Chamberlain, the superstar in the same position in his era.
Chamberlain spent most of his career focusing more on personal data, and Russell always puts team victory first, and is one of the superstars who can truly represent the team's core and spiritual leader.
Even though his career was not long enough, he still became the greatest defender in NBA history and also topped the top 11 times to set an NBA record.
No. 1: Jabbar
Honors: 6 championships, 2 FMVPs, 6MVPs, 10 first-teams, 19 All-Stars, 5 defense first-teams
Jabbar is a top scorer, blocker and rebounder who has dominated the league for nearly 20 years and has his own iconic "Tian Gou" technology.
Whether in terms of game dominance, the number of championships and MVPs, Jabbar deserves to be at the top.
Even in the NBA historical rankings, Jabbar once had the hope of becoming one of the strong contenders of GOAT, and he had long occupied the NBA historical scoring position before James.
The rest are ranked as follows:
6-10: Moses Malone, Jokic, David Robinson, Ewing and George McCann;
11-15: McCardou, Unseld, Parish, Reed and Howard;
16-20: Coins, Embiid, Bill Walton, Gilmore and Thurmond.
