6. DeAndre Jordan, Los Angeles Clippers

Counting Stats: 12.7 points, 13.8 rebounds, 2.3 blocks

VORP: 3.5

I love DeAndre Jordan as much as the next guy, I’m just not sold on the fact that he’s as good as many perceive him to be. That’s not a knock against him, though. Jordan is one of the most athletic centers in the NBA. There’s no argument there.

Like most of the players on this list, though, Jordan has his holes in his game. Most notably, on the offensive end. However, Chris Paul‘s ability to make his teammates better has helped cover some of Jordan’s limitations.

Jordan is a good center, but I just don’t believe he’s one of the top 5 in the NBA.

Next: No. 5
