And we finally wrap up our big rankings week with Centers, the big men to carry your Boards-n-Blocks, so if Pete says any of these rankings are dead wrong – he knows what he’s doing!  Just as long as he steers clear of my Jonas Valanciunas love – the Luminescent Lithuanian is my call!  Has been since last year!  Every fantasy site has been stealing it from me!

As mentioned before, all Razzball ranks are broken down by Yahoo position eligibility (view all top 200 here), so there won’t be direct positional crossover to other fantasy sites:

2013-2014 Fantasy C Rankings

(updated Oct. 8)

POS RANKOVERALL RANKPLAYER, POS, TEAMNOTE
16Serge Ibaka, PF/C, OKCI’ll reach, scored 4 more a game, developing deep shot, 57.3 FG% 12-13.  Westbrook injury now has him a key scorer as well, but obviously doesn’t move above the big 5.
29Marc Gasol, C, MEMDoes everything, increased scoring with Gay gone in 2nd half 12-13.
310Kevin Love, PF/C, MEMFirst-round talent, injury downside.
415Al Horford, PF/C, ATLMillsap is more efficient than Josh Smith, love Teague, big year for big Al.
517Al Jefferson, PF/C, CHACharlotte finally has a big, offense will run through him.
621LaMarcus Aldridge, PF/C, PORWould move 5-6 spots up if guaranteed with POR all year – trade concerns.  A tad gimpy right now.
722Anthony Davis, PF/C, NOHuge second half, lots of scorers coming in a slight concern.
826Joakim Noah, PF/C, CHIInjuries will be concerning, but very big year from Noah in 12-13, Rose = FG% up.
927Larry Sanders, PF/C, MILGM calls him key to the team, contract extention in works, big year ahead.
1031David Lee, PF/C, GSOften underrated, not worried about the hip injury that’s healed up.
1134Pau Gasol, PF/C, LALBye-bye Dwight, hello to old ways.  Or would it be hola?
1235Nikola Vucevic, PF/C, ORLNot only a double-double guy, 2 ast 1 stl 1 blk a game as well.
1336Dwight Howard, C, HOUProbably won’t end up on many of my teams, but upside is obviously still there.
1437Tim Duncan, PF/C, SADream season last year, think he’ll come close to duplicating going for title.
1542Roy Hibbert, C, INDFlashed elite big potential in playoffs, extremely durable.
1643DeMarcus Cousins, PF/C, SACStill risky, one of fantasy’s biggest high risk/reward picks yet again.
1746Nikola Pekovic, C, MINAlready great FG% that will go up with Love, dub-dub with stl/blk a night.
1848Jonas Valanciunas, C, TORIf you’ve read me since last year, he’s my #1 sleeper.  Offense to run through him.
1949Chris Bosh, PF/C, MIAUnder-the-radar (at least to me) very productive 12-13 despite dwindling skill set/rebounding.  Some further regression.
2050Derrick Favors, PF/C, UTAThe Jazz have a ton of faith in him, oozes potential/high block total.
2152Brook Lopez, C, BKNLove his game, had him top-20 in May.  Foot injury and big trade limits #s.
2255Greg Monroe, C, DETThink Josh Smith/Jennings actually will help his fantasy value.
2363Ryan Anderson, PF/C, NODespite new faces, don’t think his role/numbers change much.
2467Zach Randolph, PF/C, MEMWhile he’s up there in age, reliability keeps him this valuable to me.
2581Marcin Gortat, C, PHXAnother guy from the Suns that was a semi-bust but still put up #s.
2683Enes Kanter, C, UTABig upside in starting role.
2789JaVale McGee, C, DENObvious upside with more minutes due to Karl firing, Shaqtin a Fool downside too.
2891Carlos Boozer, PF/C, CHIOne of my least favorite players, is actually going a bit underrated in 13-14.
2992Andre Drummond, PF/C, DETSure some upside, but 37.1 FT%?  Really?
3094Andrew Bogut, C, GSSays he’s healthy and expects big minutes, multi-cat performer, always injured…
3198Spencer Hawes, C, PHIHas the 1st half to prove worth until Noel gets minutes, out of position 3s nice.
3299Tyson Chandler, C, NYNot a huge fan, injury prone and a wild card, but value has him crack 100.
33100Amir Johnson, PF/C, TORDespite probably a sub-10 PPG scorer, gave you 1 stl 1.4 blks last year.
34101Cody Zeller, PF/C, CHAA surprise from Summer ball, there’s upside playing next to Jefferson.
35103Chris Kaman, PF/C, LALThrived when he’s gotten starting minutes, will be vastly undervalued.
36104Kevin Garnett, PF/C, BKNKidd says he’ll bench KG on back-to-backs, #s still there last year, down a bit.
37106Anderson Varejao, PF/C, CLEThe unreal rebounds are tough to ignore, but less minutes, Bynum = less value.
38107Kelly Olynyk, C, BOSMinutes and opporunity are there, worth a slight bit of a reach to me.
39111Andrew Bynum, C, CLEDon’t want him, knees hurt again, but still some upside. Yahoo @ 53 = nuts.
40121Tristan Thompson, PF/C, CLELoved him before Bynum/Bennett brought in, Bynum hurt, TT could start.
41131Tiago Splitter, C, SAUnderrated multi-cat year, played 81 games, nice late stat booster.
42135Greg Stiemsma, C, NOGoing to start and get the Robin Lopez role, will block and can board better.
43136↑ Andrea Bargnani, PF/C, NYKApparently gelling well with Melo and Amar’e is still hurt.  Not going to go nuts for him, but upside warrants the slight boost.
44137Nene Hilario, PF/C, WASAdds 3 dimes a game, but up there in age and not a guy I’m drafting earlier.
45140Brandan Wright, PF/C, DALDalembert the de facto starter, but I see Wright getting upper 20 minutes a night.
46145John Henson, PF/C, MILWon’t get boatloads of minutes, but his per/48 is fantastic and can contribute.
47149Omer Asik, C, HOUHuge loss of minutes, Dwight/Asik frontcourt would be worst FT% ever.
48150J.J. Hickson, PF/C, DENBehind Faried and McGee, will still get pretty solid minutes.
49154Robin Lopez, C, PORLooking like he’ll start & could repeat 12-13 which has value even though he blows.
50157↓ Amar’e Stoudemire, PF/C, NYName value probably has him going earlier, not touching him.
51163Samuel Dalembert, C, DALSet to start, won’t play huge minutes but will boost blocks.
52165Luis Scola, PF/C, INDRelegated to the bench, still has efficient scoring upside.
53167DeAndre Jordan, C, LACStrictly a guy for blocks and a handful of boards, the FT% destroys you.
54174Nerlens Noel, PF/C, PHIWill get eased in, always a chance he has big last couple of months.
55176Kosta Koufos, PF/C, MEMWas productive in only 22 minutes/per last year, will get 18-20 and a few boards.
56177Brandon Bass, PF/C, BOSUnclear role with Humphries/Wallace stealing some minutes.
57180Glen Davis, PF/C, ORLHurt, probably misses opener, they’re trying to dump him – 180 from my thoughts in May.
58183Patrick Patterson, PF/C, SACP Pat is stuck in that 3-man PF rotation with Landry/Jason Thompson.
59185Ed Davis, PF/C, MEMRandolph is reliable but old, Davis showed potential with TOR in 1st half of 12-13.
60188Alex Len, C, PHOComing off surgery on both ankles I don’t think he’s good even if Gortat is moved.
61194Greg Oden, C, MIAYeah if someone wants to draft him before here, go ahead.
62198Marressee Speights, PF/C, GSThink he’s a better player than opportunities he’s been given, works into mins.
63199Jermaine O’Neal, C, GSSomehow managed 1.4 blks a game in 12-13 in 18 minutes per.
64200Boris Diaw, PF/C, SAJust so fun to say his name like Rick Flair, he had to be my Mr. Irrelevant!
