Will never be touched. I get so rustled when ESPN and Kblaze tell me that Lebron is gonna pass Jordan.

If Lebron stayed in Cleveland, maybe. But collusion is not natural. I prefer harmony over mischief.

You could argue that Figure Skating is more aesthetic and just as athletic as basketball. Different kind of athleticism, but athletic nonetheless.

I don't like Kobe but he is far more aesthetic looking than MJ... that guy was one ugly motherfcker

[KyrieTheFuture]

Why did you edit your post to change to a different Eddie Murphy gif? Also, collusion occurred, therefore it is natural. Use a different term.

Both offensively and defensively

are you really arguing that 7 footers are more aesthetic than a 6'6 who can fly, shoot, dribble, pass , sprint, etc. ?

youre wishing on a star that already fell

Well, OP did say Athleticism and Aesthetics.

Kobe is definitely up there in athleticism, but still isn't close to MJ or Lebron.

[KobesFinger]

Is this aesthetics in terms of form or looks?

aesthetics is overall, consistent beauty. You tryna tell me Russell and Wilt had beautiful games, on both sides of the ball simultaneously ?..as often as MJ? I dont think so.

You got koolaid I got Cranberry OJ, ya bish. :coleman:

Not even close. The player that made things look the best is easily:

The lack of Terrance Ross in this thread is alarming.

Show me where I said anything that could be taken to mean that...ever.

[FKAri]

Actually VC is the correct answer; extremely aesthetic and athletic moves.

Wilt was the GOAT in everything right? :coleman:

Why can't you just admit that Jordan/Kobe have incredibly beautiful, stylish and aesthetically pleasing games, while someone like Wilt isn't as watchable. Nothing bad with that, aesthetics dont make a player. Duncan wouldnt be top 10 then, nor better than Kobe. But he is.

Not a TMac stan, but that image is depressing.

Damned shame.

In terms of being freak athletes, alpha dogs, and epic all around players on both sides of the rock all in one, MJ, Kobe, and Bron stand in a class by themselves. Bron is the most versatile and best all around due to his passing and size. But MJ and Kobe had the better scoring skillsets, hell those two may have the best scoring skillsets of all time along with guys like Durant, Bird, Gervin, and Melo. Bron of course is a great scorer, but his total scoring skillset isn't as technically sound.

So I agree MJ is the PINNACLE followed by Kobe and Bron. From there u have guys other guys who are freak athletes, alpha dogs, and great all around players in one like Wade, T-Mac, G Hill, or a Drexler. But they are missing one or two things to be on that MJ-Kobe-Bron level.

Vince carter in his athletic prime was for me has the most beautiful movement of any player i have seen, Jordan Kobe Lebron Mcgrady Drexler wade and even Allen Iverson were great but something about Vince was just amazing, whether it was dunking shooting doing lay ups it was just hard not to keep your eyes glued to him waiting for moments of "wtf how did he ?"
