The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

[Stakesarehigh]

I have seen talk of this elsewhere but not here. Is there anyone in the league whose game reminds you of Michael Jordan’s? I have 2 players in mind, one more than the other.

SGA

[Stakesarehigh]

One of the most intimidating athletes to ever play game, athletic , vertical 60 inch , beastly dunks …

By those standards Mac Mclung should be an all star

What’s a ute?

A Native American tribe out west

 

[msgkings322]

Man, i laugh at all these comparisons about who was the goat , was the game more physical back then Yada yada yada

If ya get a chance log onto Shawn kemps game

That dude could have possibly been in the discussion for the GOAT if he had more support

I’d take him over LeWRong any day of the week

Ok now you’re just messing with us LOL

So basically a new Kobe? I dunno maybe DeRozan with the midrange game? SGA probably with the driving and defense

LOL at 60 inch vertical. No dude.

One of the best in game dunkers ever. But simply had little substance to his game.

Never even made 1st team all NBA.

He needed a lot more than a little support.

He needed to stay away from the drugs and the women and actually work on his lacking basketball skills.

So you’re sayin had he not been on drugs he’d be considered as a potential GOAT?

He would have faltered in this era. He played in the best era suited to his skillset.

No dude. He was not a very good basketball player.

He was an athlete who could dunk. That was about it.

6 time all star

Led the sonics to finals vs bulls

And is still on list for HoF

And YOU say he wasn’t a good BB player?

I mean…

Compared to the average NBA player or the average human?

Of course he was good.

In the context of what you are trying to paint him as?

No.

14.6 PPG for his career.

Cmon man.

Bismack Biyombo would have been the GOAT if he only had Steph Curry’s skill set.

So close.

Don't believe everything you see on the internet. It was around 40"

Hes still being considered for the Hall

Dude was a block shot machine

Had he not had the off court issues and had his head in game like MJ, for example, nothing would have stopped him

To accomplish all that he did under the influence, magine what he could have been, a GOAT?

He still would be passed up by Lebron. There is no debate. You can include Kemp in your GOAT conversation, along with Bill Russell. We will continue to laugh

You can't forget Robert Horry, big shot Bob, with all those rings
