    Default Re: Who was/is the most athletic player ever?

    The way I see it as:

    PG- Derrick Rose- 6'3 190 strong, fast, explosive in so many ways. Westbrook and Durant are elite but prime Rose was video game level
    SG- MJ- Self explanatory. 6'6 generational athletiscm
    SF- Lebron- Self explanatory. 6'8 sturdy 250 and moving faster than most guards while bodying forwards.
    PF- Tough, I feel like Shawn Kemp was a freak but Kevin Garnett had ridiculous agility and speed in his prime while being strong. Prime Stoudemire was tough
    C- Shaq or Wilt. Anomalies athletically.

    he grew since he was 19.

    they remeasured him at 6'8.5 barefoot and list him at 6'9 now

    Russell should at least get a mention. 6th best high jumper in the world in 1956 IIRC and supremely fast and agile for his size.

    MJ, Lebron, Wilt will get most of the attention but Russell might be the most athletic.
