This kind of goes along with what I was saying in the thread about horses' greatness. Bynum will obviously never put up the kinds of numbers that Wilt Chamberlain did or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. He may not even put up the kinds of numbers Shaquille O'Neal or Hakeem Olajuwon did. But what if, for the next 15 years, he's the most dominant center in the league? Would that be worthy of the hall? In my opinion, yes. Where does he stand right now among the centers in the game? Top ten? Top five? You've got Yao Ming and Dwight Howard above him, IMO. After that, he's right there with Chris Kaman. I don't consider Amare Stoudamire to be a center and neither is Tim Duncan or Kevin Garnett. The guy has 18 double-doubles (Ming has 21) and he's the only player in the league averaging 10 boards and playing under 30 minutes per game. He's at 10.2 in 29 minutes a night and Ming is at 10.4 in 37 a night. Ming is at 2.3 blocks and Bynum is at 2.1. If I had a choice of which one I would take, I'd take Bynum right now over Ming and Kaman. And he's only 20. People forget that he's only 20 and had limited experience in high school games. The sky is the limit for him.
