People forget how good Pettit was. 11 time NBA all star, 4 NBA titles. Shaq was better though.



The OP asked who was the best all around center. Shaq would get the nod on D, but Petit was more versatile on O.

Petit was listed as a forward at LSU, But Petit did average more points and more rebounds and was a much better free throw shooter than Shaq at LSU.

But I never saw Petit play, I saw Shaq. No one in my lifetime has been as good at center.

I wasn’t sure if Petit played center or not at LSU. I know he played center for the St. Louis Hawks. I saw him way back when.
