Greatest player to ever play the game. Not a dumb idea at all lol.

Nah it's dumb. MJ isn't the the undisputed greatest player to play the game, there are MULTIPLE players who you mount resonable arguemnts for. '

Russel, Wilt, Magic, Oscar, Kareem...


MJ isn't Gretsky, the gap between Gretsky and his peers is so wide, that you can't really argue that he isn't the best, MAAAYBE Bobby Orr but his career was too short


It would be an insult to other great players to retire jordans name over guys like Russel or Kareem.

I may be Inclined to think that MJ is the best but it's arguable and once its arguable you can't retire his number league wide.

those that don't are idiots so that can def be excluded from the convo
So you're an idiot if you think Magic is the greatest?

You're an idiot if you think Kareem is the greatest of all time? I mean he only scored like 37 racks worth of points and nabbed 6 rings in the process. 
 
I say the Big O, but that's my opinion. I had made a post a couple years back when NT was on ezboard, stating why I thought Oscar was the greatest, and capes came flying in for Michael.

I forget sometimes we are on a forum that essentally built on snakers that were made in the Jordans image. :lol:

If you retire Jordan league wide, you also gotta retire Kareem, Ruseel and WIlt as a bare minimum and you could argue Oscar and Magic and in 20 years you'll have to throw someone else in that mix.

I think these arguments tend to discount the intangible factors at play. You can certainly make basketball arguments for someone else being the greatest. But when you talk about the level of impact Not only for the league, not only socially, but for the game on a global scale...there's really no argument to be had.

Allen Iverson made a huge impact on the NBA and individuals who watched the NBA. He basically changed the game from a style perspective.

Does that make him the GOAT?
 
I do not understand it sometimes how some of these NBA players cannot get into shape don't they know after their careers most of them will stop earning steady income dudes like big baby sullinger blatche are very fortunate to be born with their physical gifts and of course they worked hard to also to be good but they are not maxing out they need to know that they are only as good as their body is capable of

Never understood this either, you have the best nutritionists, trainers, physicians,dieticians,etc.,that most time the team pays for, in the world. Who are paid to keep MILLION dollar people in tip top shape. And to see them show up every year overweight is pure nonsense.

yup. :lol:

So did Bird and Magic. The finals were tape delay before them.

They saved the league from near extinction, so we gunna retire those numbers as well.
 
No Michael Jordan is the undisputed greatest player of all time when you factor in most things.

Those other guys are great but most of their careers went unseen by the masses.
