No, he saying that centers are maybe not worth the high salary that people pay for them,and i saw many people try to sell their centers with salary over 300 k for only 2-3M beacuse they don´t want to pay that salary any more and i personaly would never pay that much salary for center.

This discussion makes me wonder about salary values and individual skills. Are all skills weighted the same as far as salary goes? If so, then I would think a well-rounded SF would have a higher salary than a well-rounded C, seeing as he has more pertinent skills to his game. Incidentally, are these C's you're complaining about mostly specialized in 1-3 skills with very low secondaries or are they well-rounded?

Incidentally SF is the cheapest position salary wise. The most expensive SF out there only has a 160k salary.


That lends to the notion then that these high salary C's the OP is referring to are 1-3 skill wonders. As the SF has more skills needing training, hence more training time, it probably limits the skill level achieved. Whereas those C's might just be trained in ID, IS, and Rebounding their entire life. Give me a well-rounded C that can fill in at PF, rotate out to contest a shot, and knock down the occasional 3, any day of the week, and I'd be a happy man.

That's a good question, but one that I don't think has a black and white answer. I guess it depends on A) what kind of tactics your team uses mostly, and how much you need to spend for a center to be competitive in your league. I am very happy with my two main centers. They play d, they board, one of them can pass, they are good free throw shooters, and they can score. My team salary for my 9 main players is $463800. My two main centers in this group take up 33% of that salary. I prefer a balanced team that can play any tactic fairly well, and I have yet to pay anybody $100000+/wk, so my figure is probably not representative of most teams.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.
