Where does Patrick Ewing rank all time?

[Jplaya2023]

top 25, at the very least top 30. Remember this man played with no secondary scorer at an allstar level and still put up numbers.

Imagine if he played with a top flight perimeter player how his career would be looked at differently.

How is kidd higher?

He wasnt a better player then Pat

he kind of was tho

Great defender, played a long time, re-invented himself, and made every team better on offense.

Its up for debate, I guess but I liked Kidd more.

Anyone in here saying punk ass David Robinson was better than Ewing needs a smack on sight.

you could say the same for Hakeem and DRob

and a lot of centers. Moses Malone too.

Even Walt Bellamy.

Keem had mad young guns plus Clyde the glide for that second chip.

Ewing had Starks. And Starks bricked the chip away.


You put a young Sprewell with pitty pat things may be different.

And the admiral was physically freakish talent with NO HEART. He was a soft ass herb with a fukked up haircut.

 

[Carlos Huerta]

i can name 10 centers that would rival pat

moses malone
shaq
bill russell
kareem
hakeem
david robinson
wilt
willis
kg
bill walton

 

[Mr.Black]

Kerr was the best 3pt shooter in the game. Rodman for the 2nd 3peat was the greatest rebounder and defender in the game.

the 1st 3 peat he had horace grant, bj armstrong and old ass bill cartwright

Agree but those guys to me were better than ewing.

Keem won in 94 they did add drexler in 95 and he was huge in the playoff.

Moses had Dr j and a great supporting cast, even though the doctor was past his apex.

D rob had Duncan at the end of his career.

 

[Mr.Black]

willis reed nikka

fukk you think i mean kevin willis?

 

[Jplaya2023]

He talking about Willis reed

 

[kingofnyc]

Among Centers I have seen because Kareem and Wilt were before my time:

1. Duncan T.
2. Olajuwon H. (really tied for 1st)
3. O'Neal S.
4. Robinson D.
5. Howard D.
6. Mourning A.
7. Ewing P.
8. Yao Ming (should have been top 5 if not for health)
9. Smits R.
10. Brad Dougherty

I feel like im missing some I know there's been a shortage at C in a while but im missing a few. Someone post some names

Edit: Amare SHOULD be on this list and top 5 too

Garnett is better.

As much as i dislike that sheep in wolves clothing I cant take Ewing over him if im building a squad.

Willis Reed, Dwight Howard, and Alonzo better than Pat?!!! You can make the argument that KG and D-Rob were better (although I would still disagree) but those 3 dudes were/are not on Patrick Ewings level.

we are talking about their best years tho.

Not many centers had great perimeter players in their best years.

why wasnt Willis Reed on Pat's level? If not better?

Pat played in a tougher era, against better comp at his position, and he also didn't come close to playing with as much talent as Reed did. The best player Ewing played with in his prime was John Starks and he NEVER had a legit 3 his entire career.
