ISH Vote: Top 25 Players in NBA History (2016 edition): Vote for the GOAT

[RRR3]

Hopefully, I have time enough to monitor this now with my summer job almost over.

Rules
1. First player to 25 votes wins
2. Voters must have at least one thousand posts
3. Voters cannot be known or heavily suspected alt accounts
4. Serious votes only. I.e., no votes for Scalabrine.



In order to ensure fairness, I will not be voting, as I admittedly have biases amongst the players who will be voted in here, and I haven't watched most of NBA history either.





This thread is for the number 1 player in NBA history. Vote for your pick!






Voting tally

Michael Jordan-12 (SouBeachTalents, Mr Feeny, Dragonyeuw, aj1987, K Xerxes, MP. Trey, J Shuttlesworth, scuzzy, Nilocon165, Asukal, Young X, Prometheus)

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar-7 (Sakkreth, feyki, InsanityKills, k0kakw0rld, Smoke117, colts19, NBAGOAT)

Wilt Chamberlain-2 (Lazeruss, Psileas)

[Mr Feeny]

What do you mean?

Do wr list our own top 25 list or do we vote for the player we consider GOAT after which you'll tally the votes?

Sorry, will clarify.



This will be a series of threads. This is the first of 25 (unless I get bored or someone else takes over) I'll make.



This is for who you think is the #1 player of all time. Give me your votes!

[SouBeachTalents]

That MJ dude

[Mr Feeny]

Note sure why making the same thread 25 times would give a more accurate response.

But it's Jordan for me.

No not the same thread 25 times LMAO. This thread is for number 1. Next is for the 2nd best ever, etc. etc.

[LAZERUSS]

Kobe.

[RRR3]

Kobe.
:kobe: I know you think it's Wilt, please answer this seriously.

[Mr Feeny]

No not the same thread 25 times LMAO. This thread is for number 1. Next is for the 2nd best ever, etc. etc.Ah sorry.

Good idea for a thread. Just a message. We'd all take this more seriously if you discount dumb trolling like lazar saying Kobe just to swing the votes his way.

If that's the case, half of us are going to say lebron and we'll never get anywhere.

[LAZERUSS]

:kobe: I know you think it's Wilt, please answer this seriously.

Well, please remove Feeble's (Feeney) vote, then...

He is no longer allowed to post here.

Then, yes, WILT.

Then, yes, WILT.
Let me clarify: Mr Feeny's post in this thread was serious (a vote for Jordan). Troll posts he made in other threads don't discredit what he said in this one. Will mark you down for Wilt.

Just to clarify...Feeble has no credibility.

[Mr Feeny]

Just to clarify...Feeble has no credibility.

Yawn.
They put you down for Wilt.

Keep crying.

[Sakkreth]

Voting KAJ.

I would add join date as requirement too, there are too many alts that spam trolly bullshit over and over.

[Mr Feeny]

We're about to see a pattern here.
Laker stans are all going with KAJ unanimously.
And no Kobe stan will have lebron in the top 10 even though he's top 3 at worst.

:biggums:

[feyki]

Kareem .

[Psileas]

Wilt.


Hi, Laz :cheers:

[Dragonyeuw]

MJ

[aj1987]

Kareem.

[RRR3]

BTW, I feel I should clarify this as well: I am not saying I won't accept votes from posters that I know have alt accounts (I have had alts myself although I've admitted to both of em IIRC), rather I will not accept votes from one poster on multiple accounts. E.g., warriorsfan is free to vote, as long as he doesn't vote for Lance Stephenson as GOAT or something, but he can't also use TommyGriffin or MontaEllisMVP.

[InsanityKills]

Kareem

I have a strong suspicion you're an alt of dubeta, can you prove me wrong?

Unfortunately it doesnt work like that. You can't go around accusing posters of being alts without evidence - you'll just be accused of blocking votes of players you dont like. Only way this can be proven is if an admin shows they're alts, which isn't happening. How does one '"prove" they are not an alt anyway

[Mr Feeny]

Kareem

This guy's tagline was "1-9"

True, ugh. I counted his vote because I'm not sure. I will not count dubeta/jt/lebronxrings, warriorsfan/monta ellis MVP/tommygriffin, mr jabbar/eye test, etc. Those are obvious.

Then the entire process s going to be impossible. This place is full of alts. The same poster can log on to 9 accounts and vote for his favourite and because it's impossible to prove it, those votes will need to be registered.

It's going to be shambolic.

[Lebronxrings]

Kareem.

[RRR3]

All right, I am beginning to suspect someone is trying to get Kareem in this spot. Please stop posting on multiple accounts.

[InsanityKills]

Enough proof?

[aj1987]

Ok, I was just trying to bait people with my initial post. Change mine to MJ.

Guys, should I count lebronxrings vote additionally? I suspect he and insanitykills to be the same person but IDK if that's true. I don't want to be unfair...

You shouldn't. He's a blatant troll and an alt.

[RRR3]

Allright I won't count lebronxrings. I apologize if you are indeed separate accounts, guys. Just trying to make things fair.

[Mr Feeny]

Ban Lebron/Kobe fans for this voting :confusedshrug:Says the Kobe stan who has a 12be pen is lodged firmly in his mouth :lol

Which would leave, what? About 10 people?

Or how much hate you have on Kobe to see me as his fan :rolleyes: .

[Mr Feeny]

Your post history says otherwise unfortunately.

[feyki]

Your post history says otherwise unfortunately.

My posts were always about basketball history as i can . Just , I'm not a Kobe hater like you ( actually i was , but not after 2011 same as Duncan ) .

However , continue the concept .

It's simpler than that. Your posts history says otherwise. Not that complicated.

My 5 year join date should trump 1000 posts.

I can confirm this is true.

[scuzzy]

Michael is still GOAT as of now

The next one-two years may change that

[Nilocon165]

Jordan

[Asukal]

There is no need for this thread. MJ is the consensus number one until someone better comes along(No, it's not that flopping guy from Akron who is 3/7 in the finals). Move on to number 2. :rolleyes:

[swagga]

lebron still has a shot. if he wins against the current warriors he will have a case.

[RRR3]

Asukal, that's a vote for MJ, correct? (Stupid question I know but I have to be fair and make certain) Marking you down as such.


Also Swagga, are you voting for MJ too?

[RRR3]

Is 25 votes too high? What do you guys think? For future reference. 25 votes wouldn't be a problem on ISH a few years ago though...

[Young X]

Michael

[Smoke117]

Kareem.

[Prometheus]

Jordan

[RRR3]

Is this really how barren ISH has become? I didn't think 25 was that high of a number, but I can't see votes coming easily once we get past all the most popular players...

[scuzzy]

It might be better if you do more of a "survey" like how this guy set his up (NBA top 300) collecting thousands of votes

google docs, here's an example of voting on NBA's centers
https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/4u92fr/rnba_center_ranking_form/

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dT0bby7iYzJYzNhNE1pGhLQ8baYFOdAhxhgt7omkYbU/edit#gid=0

might take a little time to set up a HOF list, but that guy did 300 players, so it shouldn't be that hard to do like 25-50 :confusedshrug:

Wouldn't that enable people to vote multiple times doe?

If you havent noticed the Kobe trolls have all disappeared


That's 20-25 posters (alts) just there

set it up somehow where each voter must place their ISH username to show with their casted results

I'm only a wee bit computer savy but i'll try to help u out as much as I can

Maybe, I think this can still be done. I'm not doing 25 though, I'm out after the top 10 for sure, someone else can take this on. Ugh.

[colts19]

KAJ

[NBAGOAT]

going give kareem a shot

[RRR3]

Bump. After what period of time do you guys think the voting should end if no player receives 25 votes?

What do you expect? This place has become a ****ing shithole...I'd go to another board too, but I'm too lazy to be bothered.

bump to maybe get more votes. might have to change to just a who has the most votes at a deadline however.

Appreciate the bump. Will definitely change the criteria. I think 20 votes instead of 25, and also an automatic end after 48 hours, assuming there isn't a tie. I will leave this thread open until the end of today, I am hoping we can get some more votes.
