I've got 6 guys definitely ahead of him and another couple close, so I'll say somewhere in 7 - 10.

[@backpackalak4101]

Ive liked him since he was on the nets , just a great centre and all you need for most teams 💪🏼

[@blaxson10]

Crazy that he ended up on the Cavs because Kyrie n KD wanted Deandre Jordan to start smh😂😂😂

[@Dizcreti]

Yeah kyrie and kd trying to be gm was horrible 💀traded all their depth for fat James harden

[@jgray2718]

My favorite aspect of Jarret Allen's game is that he gets dunked on a lot and just doesn't care. He's still going for all the blocks.

[@orlandooc1]

He don’t care if God meeting him at the rim, he’s jumping

[@101noz101]

Most underrated in my opinion is Jordan Poole, he will single handedly give the Wizards the #1 pick next season so they can draft Cooper Flagg.

[@emoon13]

Detroit Pistons vs Poole and Kuzmas Wizards Stoppable Force vs Movable Object

[@strawberryblender]

😂😂😂 OMG that's so right

[@reallydoe2552]

Obsessed with Poole

[@KmtS9]

Give Will Dawkins (GM of the Wizards) the GM of the year award if they do end up getting Flagg. 😂

Always love Jarrett Allen appreciation content. Imo he was definitely worthy of All-Defense and an All-Star selection last year. Regardless of the actual accolades though, that's the caliber of player he is.

[@jadenuniverse9541]

Thanks for giving him some credit he’s a top 7 center in the nba for very underrated star player 🔥

[@Mitchell-n8z]

Don’t disrespect my beautiful king like that he’s easily a top 2 center of all time right before robin Lopez

[@darren806]

Thank you Alex, i like when creators focus on the players you don't hear as much about

[@Walter-jl3zt]

People need to put some respect on Jarret Allen’s name!!!!

[@Anthony01538]

Let’s not forget when Mobley & Garland were both injured and Spida & Jarrett Allen led the Cavs to go 9-2 in January before they came back. Jarrett Allen averaged about 17, 13, 4, 1, 2 in those 11 games

[@Smido83]

And thats the problem the Cavs have. They are great with either Allen or Mobley. But together those 2 just do not click, cause neither can shoot the 3 efficiently.

[@vism2812]

when the cavs traded for jarrett allen, i thought i knew his ceiling. great defence and elite finishing. then he made an all star game, and he raised that ceiling. he was decisive in the post, showed extremely nice touch on tough hooks/floaters, made nice reads as a passer. clearly more than the deandre jordan archetype. which is why it was so crazy to see him raise that ceiling one more time this year. when garland and mobley went down, he was a genuine hub. 20-15 was guaranteed every night, and he’d always sprinkle in 4-6 assists. he reached another level when it came to dribble handoffs, constantly squeezed the ball through tight windows, and stopped making the obvious reads in the short roll. he was sabonis on offence and gobert on defence for 2 months. his mid ranges started falling like crazy. he’s 26, the prime years havent truly started yet. this is gonna become the new prototypical rim running big

[@BlueBrit92]

Great video as usual, I was someone that didn't fully appreciate how much of an impact Allen has. Was interesting to see this sort of insight into how a player can impact a team but go relatively underrated.

[@user-ed1yx2fq7l]

People seriously sleep on Allen’s midrange jumper

[@dearmas9068]

For real. They just let him have it, and hes efficient AF

[@Precision80]

great vid AlexHoops. I love that you highlighted his playmaking and ability to guard perimeter players too

[@ryanscott8180]

Just what I needed for my 10 min work break😊

[@solomonnorthup2168]

Great analysis. He should be on the next Team USA for the World Cup.

[@richcantgame]

Obviously I watch basketball for the star players, but guys like Jarrett Allen are a big reason why I’m a fan. The whole league is talented and there are guys who are all stars in their role that don’t get the attention they deserve.

[@opiniononion]

He's what teams hope Alex Sarr will be

[@bman54950]

People who know ball been high on allen since he was drafted. Man is a beast.

[@fattlip1958]

totally here for the jarret allen praise

[@css1741]

Cleveland one of the few or only teams I’ve seen NOT switch every pick & roll because Allen & Mobley are such mobile bigs it confuses the other teams players

[@roylopez305]

him and kyrie were so such a deadly duo. preferred the nets never traded for harden and kept allen

[@bighoopsfan]

only person more underrated than J.A. is AlexHoops 💯

[@StormyG]

Talk to em!!!

[@jef_freely]

Allen and Mobley, and Luke Travers is a trifecta of serious switchy defensive abilities that could offset the small backcourt, throw in Craig Porter for DG injuries and that a super block party! And Mitchell being the star scorer with a pass heavy offense. The transition game will be bonkers LT being an super solid grab and go point forward along with Mobley’s great ability .. love to see Allen take more 3’s, he can shoot, hopefully it’ll get added under Kenny and he still practices. A couple from the corner a night with a Mobley making more 3’s really think It’’d add a dynamic to make us more dangerous

[@rogertoledano652]

Hes not only an amazing player, but a super fuckin nice guy.

[@denvernuggsjeans]

around the start of free agency, i said the warriors should go after jarrett allen. address their size/rebounding problems while also being complimentary to the warriors offense. but i doubt the cavs are willing to engage in a deal

[@mamangjhow1475]

Think his comment about the lights too bright during their playoff series with the knicks hurt his image. His accession should be the blueprint in developing centers. Any team should be happy to have him.

[@Dizcreti]

Yeah tbh I didn’t mind the comment he was being honest instead giving some bs reason or blaming others

[@DanTheMan103]

@@Dizcreti Yeah I'd rather him have been honest and just say he wasn't ready for the moment, because he was what, 24? That happens, sometimes you just aren't as ready as you think you are

[@kittenkiller06]

Hell yeah give JA his flowers. JA Spida pnr gonna look great next season.

[@mingloff]

You cooked Jason Timpf 😂

[@crablord7934]

I really hope the Pels can get their hands on him but so far it's not looking likely 😔

[@dearmas9068]

Sorry, bud. You're never gonna get him

[@77STOMP]

Jason LT diss😂😂😂Jason fight back

[@BoolatGuzairov]

Remember comparing him with Mitch Robinson - and sheesh, Allen now is light years ahead of Mitch + he’s quite durable for a big. THAT is the player Knicks shall be looking into with all their assets (if Cavs finally decide to proceed with Mobley at 5).

[@mogotti3]

What? The Knicks have no assets.

[@michael922]

I feel like he if he could just develop a 3 and a proper mid range he would be even better he’s as versatile you can ask for but he has more potential

[@dearmas9068]

His mid range is fire

[@emanuelerenzi8992]

Need him in my actually

[@calebantenero1188]

Most underated player is tobias harris. He gave the 76ers their freedom back

[@curtishenry7926]

I've been saying this for the longest time Jarrett Allen should be getting Rudy gobert money which means he took the loyalty discount 😂

[@Love2Musgrave]

he looks like he just came from the 70s

[@blazeer3900]

Cool

On there a minimim attempts or something on the PnR stats, because i could have swore D-Live was top 5

Sure. You can give Luka to Cleveland. Thats fine

lights were dim as fuck against orlando this year though

[@LonelyHoops]

Trust me I know how good Jarrett is and I actually give him slightly more credit than u do for how switchable he is, but if we’re gonna look at 30 mill and not think he’s at least 4-5 mill overpaid than I don’t know what to think. I think a perfect tag for him is 25 mill. It’s not egregious for him to get 30 mill but it is a slight over pay.

[@dearmas9068]

Lol...

[@Grievous_]

I wanted the Warriors to trade for him so badly but then Cleveland gave him an extension I think

[@dearmas9068]

You weren't gonna ever get him anyway

[@aitlin]

Joakim Noah really came back in a new body just to block lebron in 2019 and be an all star level center

dearmas is right though. Cleveland's starting bigs outrebounded NYs starting bigs. The rebound battle came down to long bounces, and Cleveland's perimeter players not tracking them down.

Who would you say are the top ten centers

I like Allen alot but i still think the Cavs should traded him since him and Mobley are two big men who can't space the floor and that doesn't work in the modern NBA.
