Whoa.. what? He is not an elite Center. Gortat put up better numbers the season before last and nobody wanted to even trade Gordon for him. That's just crazy. Elite centers put up numbers like 20+ppg, 10+ppg, 2+bpg. Pek didn't come anywhere close to those numbers and that was with Love out hurt. He's a better than average Center, but anything over 8m is just crazy..

There have been 20 seasons in NBA history in which a big man averaged at least 16 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.7 offensive rebounds and made at least 74% of his free throw attempts. Moses Malone did it 10 times. David Robinson, Bill Laimbeer, and Bon McAdoo each did it twice. Hakeem Olajuwon, Dave Cowens, and Roy Tarpley all did it once. And last season, Nikola Pekovic did it. It was something that hadn’t been done since 1995-96 when the Admiral did it for the second time.

Anyway, Flip Saunders all but said the TWolves arent letting Pekovic get away. And Vucevic is going to get paid.

If you want a guy like this, you need to draft one and hope they pan out.
