if my aunt had a she’d be my uncle
Lol Jordan played against teams in the Finals
He would have been destroyed if he faced the Warriors or the Spurs in the Finals

Your uncle has news for you, son
the warriors that beat a gimped Cavs in 2015, choked in 2016, and had to stack the deck w/ durant to win the next two years only to fall apart without him last season? those warriors?![]()
should be 2-7
absolutely, maybe even 1-6
They didn’t choke, LeBron was just awesome
Jordan would have been swept by GSW tbh
If they played under the late-90's rules and refs, GSW wouldn't even have made it to the finals. Karl Malone would have -slapped Draymond, for starters. And before you start crowing about the long ball, Utah had three guys who shot over .400 from distance. But the way the game was called then, if a team didn't have an inside game they couldn't compete. Malone went to the FT line over 10 times a game, under those rules. He would have had 8 or 9 and-1's a game against a team like Golden state. And Stockton/Malone was the best PnR duo ever.
Lol the Warriors would have killed it in ISO era
All sports evolve and keep getting better with time, but apparently basketball is the only sport that doesn’t![]()
Never, ever attempt to with a god.
For even trying to...You have been judged and found unworthy.
I got a couple of things..
They got Manu ahead of Patrick Ewing.. Uh no.. If Manu is top 50 he is maybe 50. Not 37.. Barkley is not better all time than Malone.. Not even close. 19 is way too high for him..
Yeah Kobe at 14 is really ed LOL.. I don't get that one?
David at 12 is way too high. He is maybe around 25..
Wilt needs to be top 3 IMO. Nobody dominated the game like he did, in his time..
Duncan is better than Shaq.. He was a better all around player.. Won 1 more ring..
I also don't agree that Bird or Magic is better than Tim..
Yeah MJ is Number 1.. Lebron at 2 meh? I guess.. Top 5 for me..
To me Bird, Magic and Tim all are even basically in legacy.. You can't convince me either one was better or had a better career..
90's Bulls were ing Great.. Crazy Great.. 99 Spurs IMO would have beat them. I wish that series happened. But Jordan was a GOD for all 6 chips..
For the most part, job well done. Sure, like any list, people will quibble with the exact order, but the key to these lists is to have players slotted into the proper range or tier and he mostly did that (Ginobili +9 on Gasol and Curry +5 on Durant are exceptions). I also like that he strayed from clichés (overrating 50s-70s players, Iverson, Thomas, Bryant, Olajuwon, underrating Ginobili, Robinson, Harden, Curry) and recency bias (S bag).
These lists do their job and get people talking during the off season. I can’t wait for the season to start.
Shaq over TD is wrong
Robinson over Dream is wrong
Bird over Duncan is debatable, but I’d pick Duncan.
How the is Manu ahead of Patrick Ewing?
Their Finals opponents got screwed by the refs too except the Lakers and Sonica
Have you ever heard about the "Patrick Ewing theory"?
My God Lebron is overrated. Dude definitely should not be ahead of Kareem or Magic, and possibly not Duncan(or evenBird, Wilt or Bill R). Modern narrative has decided his only real compe ion is Jordan for GOAT and somehow that's stuck and now is being solidified without question. Sickening.
Acknowledging that Shaq, not Kobe, was the power behind the Laker's 2000's teams is the best thing about this list.
without 2015-2019 illegall screens? no way
Curry wouldn't abuse anyone in ISO, this team probably wouldn't even make it to the finals.
Yep. Not to mention the fact that when Jordan played, the refs would still blow the whistle over carrying the ball. And they didn't let a shooter leap sideways into a defender and give him a trip to the FT line. Steph and company can get space to shoot much more easily, and when they can't get space the refs give them freebies.
Lefty has been trolling this schtick so long, I wonder if he's started to believe it.
