The late Eddie Griffin would have been nice. Had decent size at 6-10. Was an elite shot blocker (2.1 blocks in just 19 minutes). Rebounded well. Wasn't a high volume 3-point shooter but for a big in that era to take around 2-3 a game (which explains why coaches hated him) and make at least one was a nice weapon to have and build around.

There's also LaFrentz, who probably wouldn't be getting injured as much if he wasn't forced to bang with centers.

KG somehow would have been even greater in this era, because he would be encouraged to take one step back and turn those long ass twos into threes.

In the picture, dirk, would have been more elite. Would have possibly played center with range and might be rated as one of the best centers in the game.

Well yeah, but that’s not worth posting a thread over lol. Kinda obvious.

Peja Stojakovic. One of the best shooters of the 2000s.

The Matrix is a name that often comes up when this question is asked.

Jonathan Bender would be fun to watch!

I'd love to see Tim Thomas with a green light to shoot 15 threes a game
