How about we lower the bar a little and just shoot for the greatest center of all time. So when he clearly surpasses Wilt, Kareem, Shaq, Hakeem, Jokic.....then he can start setting his sights on MJ and Lebron. Jeezum Crow!

He’s unique, but let’s pump the breaks… Saying he’s gonna be better than Jordan is a massive stretch… MJ was on another level all together … We’ll see where he’s at 10 years from now

Provided he stays healthy. This kid is far more of a phenom than any other teenager I've seen seen with way more abilities and skillz. Way better than Durant/Lebron etc. ever were.

Bias intact? Check.

Maybe let the kid...I don't know...win Rookie of the Year or be selected for an All-Star game or something before we start including him in GOAT convo's.

But then how do you call first when it finally happens.

I'm just going to start saying every rookie is going to be the GOAT after 5 games and eventually I will be right.

It's amazing how the OP can both have his head in the sand and up his own backside at the same time.

I don't know that he'll be better than Holmgren. They're similar players.

I liked the idea of the league being dominated by guards and permiter players for a while and I'd like to keep it that way

Nah.

MJ is an infallible deity in the minds of many.

LeBron is a legit challenger. Hopefully we see another player or 2 in our lifetimes than can also be a realistic part of the debate.

I doubt he has Wilt's "game", so to speak. Few mortal men do.

He doesn’t have Wilt’s game. Wemby is basically guard.

Aside from being very tall, they have little else in common.

This thread is funny.

Instead of foolishly trying to compare Wemby to the GOAT how about setting the bar for him at Duncan?

Becoming the greatest Spur of all time would be a hell of an accomplishment.

Your dumb comment is proof you should just shut up.

Like him or not he's only compared to the GOAT # 23.

The fact the player you hate so much is only compared to MJ says everything about his incredible career.

And leave it to a nitwit like you to bring up LeBron.

Haters always gonna hate.
