There are very few true centers around anymore. When I say a big, I'm thinking a 6'9" type that can stick the 15 footer & rebound. There also aren't many true pg's anymore. When I say I want a pg, I'm really talking about a combo. Break the pressure & score. Not to many with the pass 1st mental makeup anymore.
On point, name a true or dominant center in the NBA in the last 15 years. You can make a case for Howard and maybe Gasol. Virtually all others are really mobile power forwards or merely the 5th guy on the floor.

Bradley was not just dominating but intimidating as well. Ask Shaq.

plus, it was always funny to see him just fall down when he was running down the court.
