Unlike LeConsensus LLC who is comfortably welded and airtight locked as a Top 3 Godfather of basketball, forever.

Curry in the top 10 is just turrible :oldlol: As is Robinson top 12 ahead of Kobe & Hakeem

Isiah at 47 is really low

Payton & Iverson are big omissions

I see no way Dantley can be considered top 50. How would you even rank him ahead of Wilkins or McGrady

We can cherry pick any and every list for potholes

One thing is for certain, these lists always recognize Lebron as a top 3 and Kobe outside the top 10. Since as far back as 2013, that's a universal fact.

The knife twisting slow burn part, Lebron is still in the league collecting extra credit points and pouring more cement on his legacy. But historically speaking, he was Mt Rushmor'd prior to even winning a Finals. Expectations surpassed. The Chosen One. GOAT shit.

Even if you want to take that series out, Robinson never came close to duplicating what Hakeem did in the '94/'95 playoffs. Hell, even by Hakeem's 2nd year he averaged more ppg than Robinson ever did in the playoffs

11 straight AS seasons

20/9/2/1/1 averages on 50% in those 11 seasons

peaked at 24/11/2 on 52% leading a top 5 offense

Bosh easily belongs there. Also transformed his game in a lesser role and became one of the leagues best defensive bigs/pickandroll defenders, crucial in Miamis blitzing schemes along with becoming one of the best 3pt shooting bigs his last 3 years when it was called for it more. Could fit on any team

No difference between KG's shortcoming in Minnesota and Pau dragging the bums of Chucky Atkins and Dahntay Jones to the playoffs, the same year prime Kobe couldn't sniff a birth with Odom and Butler


Both immediatly had success after being surrounded by talent and coach


Malone, Cwebb and Chuck are career losers who team hopped and stacked the deck next to HOF's religiously. They also did this in the worst era of BBall (90's)

The list is completely stats based and nothing else. If you read the article every blurb is reciting numbers. Nothing about legacy, skill, context, narrative, impact etc. i.e. they had a non basketball fan punch in some numbers and write an article. This explains some of the weird and outright laughable rankings.

It's the same Top 1-3 players every list has

It's the same Top 4-10 players every list has

It's the same Top 11-20 players every list has


You can mix and match the players inbetween these 3 tiers but generally it's the same foundation of every sports journalist, fan forum, player/coach/gm ranking every single time.

Just like the recent fad of people's top MCs, they make ridiculous lists to generate as much clicks as possible. People will make YT videos and post this bullshit on every forum to argue their personal rankings and how stupid BR is and they generate tons of AD revenue. Great job by them I guess.

If Wilt with his insane stats is so low, why is L39ron so high on this list?

Easy explanation, recency bias. The NBA and the mass media are doing all they can to prop up a dude who isn't close to being over .500 in Finals wins. :facepalm If they gonna punish Wilt for his losing Finals record, why not LeBron? All about that money, the NBA and the media connected to it need to push the narrative that we are witnessing a top tier GOAT, they need people tuning in, it's about ratings.

Time will take care of LeBron once he retires and the media stops propping him up. He'll fall in the GOAT list, fringe top 8 honestly.

Easily the best post in this thread. Space and time will correctly place Lebron where he belongs.

You brought up a GREAT point about Wilt's dominance and his ranking vs Lebron's ranking - there's an obviously blatant contradiction there, for sure.

Your first site actually includes Jordans fashion choices in his analysis of him as a basketball player. The second site actually has Jordan ranked above Lebron, but he accidentally reversed them on the list. http://www.backpicks.com/2018/04/08/backpicks-goat-2-michael-jordan/ You'd know that if you spent more then 5 seconds on the site.

Backpicks put LeBron over Jordan due to LeBrons longevity edge, which Ben Taylor is huge on longevity hence Kareem #1

Taylor does specifically say that Jordan’s peak was higher, and had he not retired one or 2 more seasons of his prime would have him the GOAT. He also rates Jordan as the 5th or 6th best playmaker of all time with LeBron in the spot just in front of him.

Personally I’m a big fan of his analysis though I don’t value longevity as much

He said LeBron has an argument for GOAT peak and was a better defender than Jordan at his apex

So peakwise they are.around the same level but LeBron has the clear edge in longevity hence why he ranks LeBron over MJ

Word.

Better offensive player too, nearly the same scoring output as NoJ while creating for others at the level of Magic/Nash

I mean, not much of an 'argument' tbh. LeBron takes it easily. (i'd put Bird and Shaq's peak > NoJ also)

Well he said he has an outside argument, which he has similarly said Kobe has an outside argument as the best scorer in NBA history back when he went by ElGee on RealGM. So sure it's arguable, just not that much

Isiah at 47 should be top 25
Wade at 22 ? should be 30-35
Curry at 10. Should be 20-25
Dr.J at 23 :roll: top 15 no question.
Durant top 20
David Robinson @12, hes 25-30
LeBron should be 8-9
Kobe could be anywhere from 7-12.

DRob over Hakeem is a joke. So is Curry being over Kobe.

Both DRob and Curry are a little high. Curry should be in that 15-20 range

Better:

Jordan

As good, MAYBE better:

Kobe (subtract 97 - 99)
Durant
LeBron
Shaq
Hakeem
D-Rob

Inferior?

Everyone else

Those dudes and that’s literally it. Especially everyone else I’ve seen.

Those guys you listed under "As good, MAYBE better" are all 100% better playoff scorers than Iverson. The fact that you even said "maybe" is highly disrespectful towards them.

Averaging 30 ppg in your playoffs career is impressive, yes, but you can't ignore the fact that his efficiency (40% FG and 33% from 3) sucked especially considering that most of his playoff games were in the early 2000s. The east was an absolute joke then.

Jordan, LeBron, Kareem, Bird, Shaq, Kobe, KD, Curry, Wade, Wilt, Hakeem, D-Rob, Dirk, Barkley, West, K. Malone, M. Malone, Baylor, Erving, and probably a couple more guys are all better playoff scorers than Iverson.

Having a better ppg average isn't the only thing that determines who the better scorer is. Efficiency plays a big role too, and that's what separates those guys from Iverson.

If you just take the regular season there are maybe 3 or 4 other players ever as dominant and impactful as David Rolbinson was. He CARRIED those Spurs teams like few players have ever carried a team. You see that in 97 when he basically missed the entire season. The Spurs won 59 games in 96 and then 20 in 97. He was a complete stud.

Iverson took 26.5 shots on 49%TS to average those numbers. I'd easily take all those dudes, plus Dirk, Barkley & Wade as scorers in the playoffs over Iverson

Exactly. I always thought he was overrated even back then. In that 2001 playoff run he averaged 32.9ppg on 30 shot attempts. :biggums: To even get to the finals they had to basically screw over the Bucks.

Easily the best post in this thread. Space and time will correctly place Lebron where he belongs.

You brought up a GREAT point about Wilt's dominance and his ranking vs Lebron's ranking - there's an obviously blatant contradiction there, for sure.

Like someone else said, this is just like the top 10 rappers list having Post Malone over Nas or some shit.


hmm, it seems wilt is a 22 ppg scorer in the playoffs and 18 in the finals, so it doesnt seem like much of a contradiction?

Kobe is the consensus 12. When you make an all time list, you simply do the following 3 thing:

1. Put MJ at #1
2. Put Kobe at #12.
3. Put other players in the other spots.

Reggie Miller in 1996 for the original top 50 - No.
Reggie Miller 23 years later - #43.
Reggie Miller for NBA top 75 in in 2021 - probably #35.

The MJ fan club is doing their best at catapulting a one-dimensional player into top 50 which is hilarious. I can't see Reggie close to being mentioned with guys hovering in the 25-50 range of this era alone such as Kawhi, Chris Paul, Harden, Giannis, Davis, etc. Then you have the 90s/early 2000s guys that were much better than Miller such as Pippen, Ewing, Kidd, Nash, Isiah Thomas.

I don't know if Miller is even top 75 at this point. I really dont think he is because then we add guys like Parker, Pierce, Billups, Wallace, Ray Allen, Howard, Carmello, Gasol, etc. Is Miller top 100? :lol
