Who's talking about the nba of the past? Of course we are discussing today's NBA. Every player I listed is on a playoff team in TODAY'S NBA.
Nothing in your post addresses my point which is Randle is not the perfect SIZE for a center. Nothing you have said has ever addressed this. You keep glossing over the size point and trying to argue something literally no one else is arguing.
This discussion is about you calling Randle the perfect size for a center. Everyone agrees that his style of play and strength fit the center position.
