Who do you have over Kobe?

I have Kobe at 3 behind MJ and Bron

1: Bron
2: MJ
3: Kobe
4: Tim Duncan
5: Magic Johnson
6: Kareem Abdul Jabbar
7: Stephen Curry
8: Shaquille O’Neal
9: Larry Bird
10: Hakeem Olajuwon
11: Wilt or Bill Russell

[faint bison]

It must be

1. Michael Jordan
2. LeBron James
3. Kobe Bryant
4. Stephen Curry
5. Magic Johnson
6. Larry Bird
7. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
8. Hakeem Olajuwon
9. Wilt Chamberlain
10. Bill Russell

[faint bison]

Bro why LeBron, it must be Jordan

[torn ravine]

warriors wearing those nice jerseys bro

[delicate carbon]

I think it’s close and it’s debatable and I wouldn’t be mad at Jordan over Bron but personally to me Bron is over him

Because of the early success in his career plus his longevity and how he basically dominated the East for a decade straight

[hushed moon]

It’s all opinion based there’s no actual correct answer lol

[delicate carbon]

Like LeBron was winning multiple MVPs and making it to the finals and conference finals all by the time he was 25

[torn ravine]

https://tenor.com/view/tracy-mcgrady-nba-t-mac-magic-gif-11988575

[delicate carbon]

To me LeBron is the goat but I can understand why some people put Jordan above him

[torn ravine]

why yall talking about jordan you weren't even born

[delicate carbon]

and you were?

[torn ravine]

jordan was playing when i was born

[distant spoke]

Unc calm down

[torn ravine]

can't act like you seen him play

[delicate carbon]

Back when Jordan was getting swept in the first round LeBron was making the finals and winning MVPs

[delicate carbon]

I’ve watched Jordan’s games?

[torn ravine]

did you grow up watching him

[faint bison]

10x scoring titles? 6 Finals MVP? 5 mvps? 6-0 finals? MJ lead scoring titles and Won a Championship in the same season 1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1997, 1998.

[torn ravine]

https://tenor.com/view/jord-jordan-lebron-gif-707236487032839238

[delicate carbon]

Does Jordan have 10 finals appearances and 40k points?

[torn ravine]

yall list is valid tho

but some people won't agree

[distant spoke]

Rings = team achievement

[faint bison]

10x Scoring Titles is very hard bro

[delicate carbon]

So is having 40 thousand points

[tough veldt]

harden better

[next thicket]

what the actual hell are you talking about

no because is he even in the top 10

[next thicket]

Bruh it’s even hard to accomplish that

Nah Tim Duncan is super underrated

tim duncan is a top 5 pf

idc

[delicate carbon]

People forget Tim Duncan never missed the playoffs over his 20 year career

He won 5 rings in three different decades

He beat Prime Bron twice

[distant spoke]

Not hard when u have one of the best rebounders n defenders

[delicate carbon]

LeBron and Jordan both had help but the difference between them is that Jordan had HEALTHY teammates.

[torn ravine]

vince carter the goat

😹

[delicate carbon]

Like LeBron had Kyrie but in the 2015 finals Kyrie and K Love both got injured. LeBron HAD D Wade but D Wade got injured and wasn’t the same.

LeBron HAD Chris Bosh but injuries

Jordan had the luxury of having a healthy team when it mattered the most

[torn ravine]

[delicate carbon]

Valid

[faint bison]

Huh? LeBron got 4-10

[torn ravine]

😹

[delicate carbon]

Curry needs help

Dennis Schroder and Buddy Hield isn’t enough

They’re expecting a 2022 curry type run I swear

[distant spoke]

rings is a team achievement pal.

[delicate carbon]

LeBron is 4-6 but like 5 of LeBrons finals losses shouldn’t even be blamed on him

Like are we blaming LeBron to losing to Tim Duncan in 07? Are we blaming LeBron to losing to the golden state avengers in 2017 and 2018. Same with 2014 with D Wade being washed and Bosh being done. Then 2015 with LeBron 1v10ing the warriors

[delicate carbon]

I’ll admit that 2011 is LeBrons fault

[faint bison]

How about

[faint bison]

Nvm

[distant spoke]

https://tenor.com/view/lebron-james-sit-gif-27296705

[delicate carbon]

Lebron had no business being in the finals in 2018 or 2007

[faint bison]

I need to eat my lunch

[distant spoke]

woah 2018?

he was a beast

2007 ehh

[delicate carbon]

Yeah but his roster sucked

[distant spoke]

he was just goated

[faint bison]

One many army

[distant spoke]

cuz KAI left

😭

[delicate carbon]

It was a Jimmy Butler type run

[distant spoke]

he was cooked

[faint bison]

But Jordan still my goat

[delicate carbon]

His second option was a washed K Love and Kyle Korver

[faint bison]

Sorry it’s my opinion

[torn ravine]

where jimmy gonna go

he hates the heat now

[delicate carbon]

Dallas or Phoenix

[faint bison]

Warriors or China

[torn ravine]

i heard the warriors tryna get him

[delicate carbon]

That would be perfect actually

Jimmy would have to just get buckets occasionally and be a second option and Curry doesn’t have to carry the offense by himself

[torn ravine]

kuminga for jimmy?

[delicate carbon]

Perfect

[torn ravine]

or wiggins

[delicate carbon]

Nah Wiggins can stay

[faint bison]

Kuminga is like having a same level as Jimmy

[distant spoke]

Jimmy is old

[faint bison]

[vocal jewel]

But then If Curry gets his 5th ring, then I already said it that could disqualify LeBron from the Top 3-5 convos

[delicate carbon]

If Curry gets his 5th ring LeBron is still the goat

Doesn’t matter

LeBron is either 1 or 2 and it isn’t a debate

Anyone who has LeBron at anything besides 1 or 2 doesn’t know ball

[vocal jewel]

Both Curry and Lebron have 4 rings so if Curry gets 5 rings and surpasses Lebron, that could take his position from now being in the Top 3-5 convos

And Noah has some valid points up there

[tardy bison]

whats happening here

[vocal jewel]

IMO and here’s the thing it cannot happen

[cunning fulcrum]

If he keeps going at his current pace wemby probably will

True

Honestly, if curry played the way he has since about 2015 his entire career, we could be talking about him in the goat conversation

[vocal jewel]

What wemby got to do with this lol

[cunning fulcrum]

Wemby is doing generational things right now, if he keeps going like this he's going to be in those conversations soon enough

[vocal jewel]

He could get 3 rings at the end of his career when you think about it

[cunning fulcrum]

Only 3?

Yeah pretty much

Those ankle injuries killed him during his early years

[delicate carbon]

Honestly people are gonna hold 2017-2018 and even 2019 against Curry

People are gonna be like “KD superteam and Curry wasn’t the best player on the warriors and he sold in the finals against Toronto”

I think 2022 saved Curry’s legacy

[cunning fulcrum]

Yeah, they'll ignore the fact that kd has done pretty much nothing since leaving the warriors and the fact that curry won without him twice

Curry also should have at least two finals mvps

[vocal jewel]

Ok I can say 5 max

[delicate carbon]

San Antonio is a amazing front office

[cunning fulcrum]

It depends entirely on whether he can keep this pace and whether he can get a at least decent supporting cast

[delicate carbon]

We’ve seen throughout history they always draft good players and get support for their superstars

[cunning fulcrum]

Who says he doesn't leave?

[vocal jewel]

Yeah it can 5 rings for wemby

[delicate carbon]

He doesn’t need to

Not yet anyway

[cunning fulcrum]

Yeah, i mean getting cp3 was probably one of the best things they could've done for him

A generational passer for a generational player

[delicate carbon]

I hate how people can say “LeBron had a Mickey Mouse Ring” and then you have Curry with his 73-9 warriors team + KD sweeping through the playoffs every year for like 3 years

I hate KD so much

He ruined a nba rivalry

Curry and LeBron would’ve been current day Magic and Bird if it wasn’t for KD

[cunning fulcrum]

Yeah, i don't agree with the 'mickey mouse' ring talk

A ring is a ring

[delicate carbon]

A ring is a ring. But some rings are harder than ofhers

[cunning fulcrum]

I guarantee you they wouldn't say anything about it if the heat had won those finals

[delicate carbon]

Wdym?

[cunning fulcrum]

Yeah, that rivalry was never fully realized unfortunately

[cunning fulcrum]

They wouldn't be calling it a mickey mouse ring if the heat had won in the bubble

[vocal jewel]

Without KD, who would lead the rivalry from 2015-18, all healthy, Cavs or Warriors

[delicate carbon]

they probably would’ve considered it impressive since the Heat had no business being in the finals

[delicate carbon]

Cavs probably

[cunning fulcrum]

That depends on whether all free agency deals go the same as they did

Without signing kd, the warriors probably sign a couple different players

Does kyrie still leave?

Stays in okc?

[delicate carbon]

Maybe not

I swear I don’t know why KD left OKC

it makes no sense

why would he join a team he blew a 3-1 lead to

[vocal jewel]

Me Neither

[cunning fulcrum]

If you can't beat em, join em

[delicate carbon]

Like he literally had a prime Westbrook and Ibaka and made the finals like a year befofe

He had a championship caliber squad

If wasn’t a LeBron Miami situation

[cunning fulcrum]

4 years before if I remember correctly
2012 finals vs heat, 2016 conference finals vs warriors

[delicate carbon]

Exactly

A conference finals appearance and a finals appearance

Plus free agency

OKC definitely had a GIANT championship window

[cunning fulcrum]

I think that depends on whether okc still gets paul george

[delicate carbon]

Also he blew a 3-1 lead. That’s his fault

[delicate carbon]

Nah I don’t think they do. Because KD left at that point they had more money to spare.

[cunning fulcrum]

Tbf it's not his fault game 6 klay was born that series

[delicate carbon]

He blew a 3-1 lead

It’s his fault no matter what

[vocal jewel]

That could happen

[delicate carbon]

Blowing a 3-1 lead while being the 3rd best player in the world is crazy

[cunning fulcrum]

You can't blame only kd for his entire team falling apart

Russ has to take some blame too

And the rest of the team

[vocal jewel]

And then the clippers off topic blows a 3-1 lead against the nuggets

[cunning fulcrum]

And the coaches

[delicate carbon]

They could’ve won that series.

[cunning fulcrum]

The nuggets were cracked in the bubble

Two 3-1 comebacks and Jamal Murray playing like he was? It's insane that they didn't win it all

[delicate carbon]

Lakers

Prime 2020 Lakers

They should’ve never split up

Rob Pelinka sold once again

[cunning fulcrum]

Does cp3 still join later on? Or westbrook?

[delicate carbon]

Imagine if Kobe won the 2008 finals against the Celtics and three peated twice

[vocal jewel]

He’s up with MJ

Hot Take

[delicate carbon]

To me Kobe is number 3

[cunning fulcrum]

Yeah, he gets into mj territory if he gets that
6 rings and the two 3-peats? He'd be a universal 1 or 2

But you could also ask a similar about LeBron
What if he goes 6-4 instead of 4-6 in the finals?

[delicate carbon]

Once you reach a certain amount of rings it doesn’t really matter anymore

Like LeBron and Curry both have 4 rings but everyone universally has LeBron above Curry

Because of factors like longevity, the playoff success that spans over 20 years. 10 finals appearances and 12 conference finals appearances.

The 10k assists and rebounds

[delicate carbon]

Like to me if LeBron wins one more ring he’s undeniably the goat

Even if he has 5 rings instead of 6 like MJ. That 5th ring would be with a trash roster in a strong western conference while he is 40 years old

WHAT’S TRENDING: EAST SQUADS HEATING UP

The first-place Cavs are setting the pace out East — but several teams have hit their stride in a tightly contested Playoff race.

Knicks On The Rise: Despite dropping its last two games, 3rd-place New York (24-12) has solidified itself as a top team in the East, coming off nine wins in its last 11 outings.

The driving force? An offense that owns the third-best rating in the NBA (119.6), behind only Boston (119.7) and Cleveland (121.3) — the two teams it’s chasing atop the standings.

New York’s New Star: The East Player of the Month for December, Karl-Anthony Towns, has provided a big boost, averaging 25.3 ppg and an NBA-best 14.0 rpg

Magic Matchup: Tonight, the Knicks host the 4th-place Magic (7:30pm/et, NBA League Pass), who have maintained a top-4 spot in the East since mid-November despite injuries to Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner and Mo Wagner.

Circle The Dates: The meeting opens a five-game homestand for NY, including big matchups against OKC (Friday, 7:30pm/et) and Milwaukee (Sunday, 3pm/et).

Pistons Purring: For the first time since 2019, the Pistons have won six of their last seven games for a 17-18 record — surpassing its win total from all of last season (14) while putting them in Play-in position.

Cade’s Career Year: Averaging career highs across the board, Cade Cunningham is on pace to join Oscar Robertson as the only players to average 24+ pts, 5+ reb and 9+ ast at 23 or younger.

Monday’s Stakes: The last time Detroit owned a .500 or better record 5+ games into a season was in 2018-19. Tonight, they’ll look to end the drought as they host Portland (7pm/et, NBA League Pass).

Pacers & Sixers Finding Rhythm: Two 2024 Playoff teams are also climbing up the standings, as Indy and Philly are each 7-3 in their last 10 games thanks to star contributions.

Haliburton History: On Saturday, Tyrese Haliburton became the first player to record 25+ points, 5+ rebounds, 5+ assists and 5+ threes with 0 turnovers in back-to-back games since turnovers were first tracked in 1977-78.

Philly Rising: Meanwhile, after sitting in last place in the East on Nov. 21, the Sixers are now just a game back of the Bulls for the final Play-In spot thanks to the return of Joel Embiid (24.4 ppg).

Tonight, Philly will host Phoenix on NBA TV (7pm/et), while Indy travels to Brooklyn (7:30pm/et, NBA League Pass).

Cluttered East Crowd: Seven East teams are separated by just three games, from the 5th-place Bucks to the 11th-place Sixers.

Tonight, Milwaukee will look to rebound from back-to-back losses as it faces Toronto (7:30pm/et, NBA League Pass).

Would this become a championship team?

[stiff raft]

Suns are cooked offering to pay butlers contract

[wicked scaffold]

As a Suns fan, I agree. Honestly, if the Butler thing don’t work out, we should trade Beal for a solid point guard, maybe a Jrue Holiday type player, and just have Tyus Jones come off the bench.

[stiff raft]

A trade for a Centre is critical to salvage this season. As a Suns fan it’s conflicted between would you rather Beal come off the bench for the rest of the season or actually make a move for butler. KD clearly wants him here also. There’s also the rockets who hold picks etc and maybe trade KD.

[wicked scaffold]

If I’m the Rockets, I’d say don’t trade for KD. They’re doing very great this season and have a deep young team. I wouldn’t make the same mistake we did and trade all our depth for Star power.

Bol Bol is the greatest centre to grace earth

[charred storm]

Curry has a bad game again

[distant spoke]

I js seen Jordan Poole landed on his ankle or sum

[charred storm]

.. Well i hope he gets better then he already is now

26 points BUT 4/14 3pt

Truly a shooting slump of all time

He might bounce back

[distant spoke]

Greatest shooter of all time 🗣️🗣️

Klank Thompson better

[charred storm]

Im tired of curry's performance this season

good points but really inefficient shooting

not the same as he was

basically washed

[distant spoke]

Like I said

Klank Thompson better

The brick brothers

listen the 3p% is above average (35%) but for klay its really not good

and the FG% is 44,5 for a SG so its below average

[distant spoke]

I’m trusting Klay over Curry

ngl

[charred storm]

Wait curry's 3pt % now is worse than his rookie year ?
