This is an inarguable, cold hard fact. No Clippers center even comes close to being better than Zubac other than Deandre Jordan and Bob McAdoo. And Deandre was only slightly better than Zu.

Bill Walton and Marcus Camby were washed when they got here.

Chris Kaman was more skilled than Zubac and had great hands, but it didn’t translate into better basketball. He was a walking turnover machine who got his pocket picked constantly always putting the ball on the floor before trying to take a shot. He was a worse rebounder and he shot 49% versus Zu’s 60% and Deandre’s 68%.

Olowakandi was trash and I don’t even need to explain this.

Michael Cage played the 4 when he was on the Clips, as did Zach Randolph.

Hartenstein put up very similar stats as Zu and looks more skilled, but he was only here one season and played on the 2nd unit.

Career wise you could argue Plumlee has had a better career than Zu, but the half-season he’s been here that hasn’t been the case. He’s past his prime now and will only be getting worse. And like Hart he doesn’t usually face the other team’s starters.

    It’s pretty sad how the list of Clippers centers stack up. I’m not sure if Zu is better than Bison Dele aka Brian Williams or Ike Austin.

    He has been absolutely horrific this year. I love him and his durability but he has been dreadful.

    He might be our 3rd best center ever, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have weaknesses

    Saying Deandre was only slightly better than zubac is extremely misleading. I mean, he made all nba first team, was an all star, multiple defense teams, multiple rebounding titles. The gap between him and zubac is much farther than you seem to think.
