NBA GOAT

There is no GOAT. This conversation is so fucking tiresome. You can't enjoy the basketball you are seeing now because all you can do is live in the 90s and talk about Michael Jordan and a subjective argument. 

 

Why is this so incessant? Is it because people don't actually care about basketball outside of Jordan?

I grew up watching the Bulls. MVP Steph Curry is the only player I've seen in the last couple decades who felt as dominating as MVP Jordan.  
 

That's odd considering the fact that Steph Curry has never made a single clutch shot late in a playoff game. Whereas Jordan was the best clutch shooter ever. :lolabove:

When Steph was on the games were not close.

Worst debate out there. And the term GOAT is severely overused now.

 

There is no greatest player. The youngest kids will say Curry, millennials will say Kobe/LeBron, GenX will say Jordan, boomers will say Wilt/Kareem.

 

There will never be a consensus. And the debates all go over the same talking points again and again. Just a painful exercise.

Nah, it’s Jordan and it isn’t close.

Of course it isn't. You might as well argue whether or not Wayne Gretzky is the greatest hockey player of all-time. Everyone else is battling for second place.

 

And the boomers won't put Wilt ahead of Bill Russell either. Dude had 11 rings, almost twice as many as Jordan. And of course Kareem scored over 38,000 points.

 

So after MJ, Bill Russell, and Kareem then everyone else is really battling for fourth place. Could be LeBron, could be Magic, could be Kobe. Maybe Wilt? None of which are top 3.

I would put Bird and Magic ahead of Russell, but the point stands that everyone is fighting for a distant second after Jordan.

LeBron James violates health and safety protocols and the league is all like, the rules don't apply to LBJ. It's the King's league and everyone else is here to serve him. :rolleyes:

 

This is consistent with what they have been doing. Kevin Porter went to a strip club and got fined, that's it.
