Correct. Parish is about the same as Walton. Ewing is at least pretty close.

Willis Reed can't be on this list. Walton may have had the best all around skills of any center who ever played, but he was rarely healthy. As such, I wouldn't include him either.

Malone was a forward, wasn't he?

Malone was a forward. Not a center.

I'm just going to let this one go. I suspect others won't be quite as forgiving.

No.

I excluded him from my list because for some reason I always thought he was a power forward. He should def go on the centers list. Carl Malone too.

---NBA---
Malone retired following the 1994-95 season having scored 27,409 points and grabbed 16,212 rebounds in his 19-year NBA career. He made more free throws, 8,531, at the time, more than any other player in NBA history and also finished his career ranked second behind Wilt Chamberlain in free throw attempts with 11,090.

He also left the game as third in games played (1,329), sixth in minutes played (45,071) and 10th in field goal attempts (19,225). Since 1973-74, when the NBA began keeping offensive and defensive rebounds as separate categories, Malone is ranked first on the all-time list in offensive rebounds (6,731).

Add in his two ABA seasons and Malone's numbers are even more impressive. In 21 pro seasons he scored 29,580 points, sixth on the all-time list behind Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Wilt Chamberlain, Michael Jordan and Julius Erving. He also grabbed 17,834 rebounds, third behind Chamberlain and Bill Russell. He's second in free throws made (9,018) and attempted (11,864) behind Karl Malone, fourth in minutes (49,444) played and fifth in games (1,455).

Karl Malone was always a power forward. Moses Malone started out as a PF and then became one of the most dominant centers in the league for almost two decades.
