that's just being a homer. Griffin and Zbo are both better offensively skilled and can play better post defense against big guys. AD will be better than them in time, but they are about the same right now.

I just...can't even

Crawford is their SG, i don't care that Redick starts. When i thought of my rankings, i thought of 4th quarter of the playoffs roster, best 5.

If you're accounting for injury history, then yes. If you're going by how they've played this season, you would be crazy to take Crawford over Gordon.

Every other center in the west rebounds just as good, but can actually catch and score.

Asik is 4th in rebound rate in the entire NBA.

So you think he's a better rebounder than Howard, Jordan, Chandler, Gasol, Bogut, Adams? Just b/c his rebounding rate is 4th, doesn't make him the best rebounder of the bunch.
He's no better, and no worse than those, and he has the worst hands, hands down, of those guys.
He's better than Splitter, but we all know Duncan is the center on that team, and he's no better of a rebounder than him.
So he's no better at rebounding than any of those teams if you ask me, and he's no worse, but he's definitely the worst on offense, by a mile.

Lets say it's the end of the game and you need a rebound, you telling me you trust Asik to get that rebound over everyone on the list except Jordan, b/c of his rebounding rate?
