We've moved passed the all time Jazz center list and onto the all time all time Jazz list. Where'd you rank him? Discuss.
 
Mine looks like this, completely off the cuff:

1. Stockton
2. Malone
3. Gobert
4. D Will
5. Horny
6. AK47
7. DM (probably too low but I'm trying to avoid 100% recency bias)
8. Hayworthless
9. Dr Dunkenstein... Heavily underrated
10. Eaton

From there down it's a crap shoot. Okur or Bailey? Where does boozer and his greedy no-defense *** fit in? Was amaeche secretly the best player ever? Was arroyo as bad as we remember...or as good? How about Russell? What about short-term guys, do they count?
 
3rd solidly. DM is coming up pretty fast though.

Remove hornacek and add gobert and you have 2 rings, maybe more.
He needs to come up faster, im tired of seeing Haywood grinning at me on the top 12 all time jazz page of bball reference.

But yeah Rudy is solidly at 3.

Hayward will get buried soon enough, by both dm and gobert, and Ingles partly too I think. But if this squad brings home the chip well all of those 3 will jump dramatically.
 
I think he's already 3rd. In franchise history he ranks 3rd in total rebounds, second in rebounds per game, 5th in blocks, 1st in field goal percentage and effective field goal percentage, 2nd in offensive rating, 5th in total win shares, 1st in win shares per 48 minutes, 4th in box plus/minus, and 5th in value of replacement player.
 
It always stuns me when Jazz fans do these lists and never mention Adrian Dantley. Dude was here from 80 to 86, was the center piece of the first Jazz teams to win division titles and playoff series, and averaged damn near 30ppg during his time here.
I prob don't give him the credit he deserves because I was taking poops in my diapers during his last season with the Jazz. Beyond just some highlights i was never able to see him play. Forgive my ignorance.

He wore his white socks up to his knees. I never knew him as a Jazz man but having grown up in Detroit I was excited when we got him from the Jazz for Kelly Tripucka in 1986.
 
I loved Horny but he never was as good as DM. I also think that he will pass Rudy and vie for number one before his career is over if he stays with the Jazz his entire career.

DM is probably 4 or 5, AK is wayyy too high and should be below even Hayward.
