Brad Daugherty was better offensively not better rebounder or defensive presence.

ETA:

I rank the 90 Centers this way

Robinson
Shaq
Olajuwon
Ewing
Cartwright
Daugherty

You have to go with Zo. Minus Howard's abysmally poor FT percentage, it's pretty similar.

Granted, this is predicated upon my perceptions as a youth, which are admittedly jaded. That being said, we're talking about a freakishly sized/athletic center who is, at best, second, maybe even third option on his team offensively but is a commanding presence in the paint. He does both with a degree of skill that screams, "next big thing" but he never quite makes that hurdle. Semms like Zo.

To me, Ewing was the like the modern day Garnett, maybe Garnett 4 or 5 years ago.

Daugherty is a better player than Dwight.
