    think Devin Booker but the goat talent version, aka big man hands, the goat combo leaper, elevation and goat quickness - the "shaq" of shooting guards was also the goat midrange shooter

    and THE goat pure scorer - he feels the defense against a 5-defender strongside

    durant got blocked on that same shot by lopez because he just took off his left foot and didn't take the extra jumpstop

    MJ faced traffic cones on defense. Nothing at all compared to the lateral quickness of today's game. You said it yourself, Jeff Green, a top 100 player in today's game would be 3rd in MVP voting and a top 5 1990s player. You said that.

    Green would be Pippen because he'd win 6 chips with MJ and get overrated accordingly - he'd blindly get all-nba like Pippen or like kobe got all-defense, while the on-paper evaluations of new fans would see the 6 rings and rank it over Giannis or Ewing's 0 rings.. Green would get credit for rings like he's a 1st option just like Pippen did - i.e. imagine Klay getting ranked over Harden due to rings - it's preposterous, but that's the treatment Pippen gets... he's just inflated massively by association with the GOAT.. I guess that's how it's supposed to be.. Meanwhile, the fake goat lowers everyone's ranking and everyone thinks they suck after playing alongside bron

    No one ranks Klay over Harden. You're a really bad poster. I just don't know why you keep doing it? If you were good I could see continuing on the way that you do, but you aren't even a good poster at this rate man.

    No dumbass... IMAGINE if klay was ranked over harden due to rings - it would be unfair, but that's the treatment pippen gets

    finished

    what do you call a guy that isn't good at scoring but defends well? That's a defensive role player, aka Pippen or Ben Simmons - Jordan won 6 chips with a defensive role player at sidekick - a Ben Simmons sidekick (bad scorer/good defender)

    No argument for him not being the Goat. I mean, who else had a prime like this:

    Two straight 35% fg playoff eliminations, followed up by two straight playoff eliminations with a 60-win #1 seed, followed up by a quitjob and collusion, followed by getting completely devastated by 34 year old Jason terry.

    Well?
