Deez is starting to morph into a combination of Artman and TDK.

Intriguing board development.

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? :lol: ... 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.

You do know Bush has been doing some form of MMA training or another for a decade or two right?

Good for him. Think he would be a bit brighter about players then.

Did you think that made sense when you hit "Submit"?

Are you actually confused by that simple reply?

So TDK thinks "best shooter" is strictly correlated to fg%? Yikes, major Boomer take.

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.
