Is he an obvious allNBAer? Better than Siakiam? Top 5 big man? What's your opinion?

Before his injury he was a tier below Duncan, Garnett and Nowitzki, slightly better than Webber due to defense.On a bit better team he'd be much more recognised as he would've gone to the playoffs more.

06 Brand was no joke, really close to Duncan and in some aspects better than 06 Duncan.

With his enormous wingspan and rim protection ability he'd have no problem playing the 5 in today's NBA. I also think he'd have no issue developing three point range, as he was a strong midrange and free throw shooter in his own time.
