Very good roster? That's a stretch. Also, Jokic is 1 of the worst rim protectors in the NBA. He was a big reason why Denver's defense sucked. "The Nuggets have allowed 61.9 percent shooting in the restricted area and give up a ton of attempts… and Jokic isn’t helping. With the Serbian big man defending the play, opponents are shooting 57.4 percent at the rim, ranking him 87th among 95 players with 200-plus plays defended. During the regular season the only centers currently in the playoffs (that get real minutes) that allowed a higher percentage at the rim were Zaza Pachulia at 66.3% and Greg Monroe at 64.7% per NBA.com."

Towns and Jokic. Jokic might be my favorite non-rocket to watch. One of the best passing big men I've ever seen. The guy has no fear on the court, he believes he can take anyone
I was close to picking Whiteside, I like his skillset. But then Towns is right there and he's just fantastic.
I picked Whiteside. If I remember correctly Towns isn't great defensively and allows an insanely high opp FG% at the rim.
I like Caps or Nerlens for the Rockets. Player (16/17)...............ORtg.................DRtg.................3P%...................PER......(per basketball-reference.com) Capela...........................122....................106.............................................21.4....... Nerlens Noel................118....................102.............................................19.8....... It's the 3-point shooting aspect that I like about Embiid and KAT Player (16/17)...................ORtg...............DRtg.................3P%...................PER..... Jokic..................................126...................109...................32.7%.................26.3..... KAT....................................121...................110...................36.7%.................25.9..... Embiid...............................103...................102...................36.7%.................24.1..... Now Im understanding that ORtg, DRtg, PER and even 3P% will change going from team to team with different personnel surrounding different players. But the 3P shooting coming from the 5 spot creates prime situations is today's NBA. One thing that makes Draymond Green a matchup problem while playing the center position. I just don't feel Dray Green can play center full-time.
This is a joke, right? The only reason this is a legitimate question is every one of these players possesses a major flaw.
It depends on what qualities your looking for from a C. I like Gobert, elite defender, rebounder and finisher at the rim. Obviously he isn't a offensive threat, but Towns/Jokic are big time defensive liabilities. Marc/Cousins are more complete players, Embiid has the potential to be elite on both ends.
Marc Gasoline Gasol on both sides of the ball and with the combination of his skills along with Cousin sis close contest but because of Cousins crazy behaviour whom could get get ejected at any minute I would take Gasol
