If Gobert was just "good" I would not be pushing this idea at all, even remotely. But he is not just good, he is not only great, he is ELITE, cream of the crop, bringing a huge positive impact on both sides of the ball.
I would not put Gobert as a top 15 player. He's a very good player but he doesn't have a jump-shot. I think Jokic is clearly the best center. KP would be very high if we grade him as a center and not a PF. Embiid is very good, top 5 center. Bam's versatility puts him pretty high. KAT's offensive skill puts him pretty high. I don't know that I would put any center as a top 15 player though outside of Jokic.
