Re: The GOAT era
Steph Curry isn't even the best "shooter" in his own family, let alone NBA history. Furthermore, Steph ranks 62nd all-time in Playoff 3PT FG%, 13th in the Regular Season. (This is bush's criteria for "shooting greatness" BTW... and who are we to argue, amirite?)
Draymond Green may be the GOAT defender of the Modern Era (maybe), but grizz will tell you Russell is the GOAT Defender hands-down... surprised he hasn't chimed in yet and again, who are we to argue otherwise, eh?
... all kidding aside, I'd argue Dream, Pippen, Rodman, Jordan, and many others I'm forgetting were far better Defenders than Green.
Scorer: Jordan, obviously.
LaVine as best Dunker ever? Eh... maybe, maybe not but really, who gives a shit about dunks though.
Ballhandler? Again, who cares.
Team Comeback? No issue with the 2016 Cavs; King Kyrie was SUPER CLUTCH with many YUUUGE shots that bailed out LeBron countless times in that series.
GOAT player... there's not one valid argument for LeFraud other than longevity, but that's simply not enough considering no player in NBA history has more failures, black-eyes and flaws on his resume than James. This one is also obvious (ie; Jordan).

Difference is I’m more athletic than you and Artie combined. I’ve been in scuffles with guys before. Some of these NBA players are not too scary, maybe for you but that’s no surprise.Bush4Ever. wrote: ↑Wed Feb 19, 2025 2:48 pm Deez is starting to morph into a combination of Artman and TDK.

Re: The GOAT era
So TDK thinks "best shooter" is strictly correlated to fg%? Yikes, major Boomer take.

Re: The GOAT era
You didn't read my post correctly... I clearly noted that that is bush's criteria for a great shooter, which he proudly used to try and convince us that LeFraud is a better "shooter" than was Larry Bird.AlaskaHawks wrote: ↑Wed Feb 19, 2025 11:19 pm So TDK thinks "best shooter" is strictly correlated to fg%?
