[@Splackavellie85]

The problem I have with the GOAT debate is that people try to diminish the accomplishments of others to make the case for their guy. Once you do that, you’ve disqualified yourself from the debate, in my opinion. Whether you have Jordan or LeBron as the GOAT, the only way to make a legitimate argument for your guy is by acknowledging how great the other guy is and THEN make the case why you believe your guy to be even greater. For instance: I could write an entire thesis on the things LeBron has done to be the GOAT and I truly believe that LeBron at his absolute peak is a better NBA player than Jordan at his absolute peak. The only reason that I have Jordan as the GOAT is the fact that, even if he had bad games in high stakes situations, Jordan never choked as badly as LeBron did in 2011. Jordan, from a storybook perspective, has the perfect career. Jordan is the greatest individual player ever, but LeBron at his peak is the most complete player ever and better in a 5-on-5 NBA game.

“I’m gonna wait until their careers are finished before I compare” as if Jordan wasn’t the consensus goat his 3rd year in the league. Saying you need to wait for lebron to finish his career is all you need to say. They’re admitting he’s not the goat. Nobody was saying “let’s wait for Jordan to finish his career before we say he’s better than Kareem.” No. He was recognized as the greatest player ever after his 3rd season. And then he went on to play 12 more seasons and win 6 finals MVPs

[@user-lh8zz6st5r]

You just lied 😂 and very confidently they were cooking Jordan for having no rings and just looking to be a scorer

[@Biggiiful]

@user-lh8zz6st5r. He didn't lie at all. Most players, coaches, and fans considered Jordan the best they gad ever seen BEFORE he won a title. The MINORITY of critics and the media got fully on board with it after his first chip. Then he won 5 more....

[@alex1vid]

Durant's a great player. But he's not that guy. But also a funny thing... if I imagine a Jordan & James on the same team (in the NBA, not Olympics, etc.), they could play together. Obviously they would do great in the Olympics and stuff but a full season is more intense and tough. And I think they'd thrive because they're just that different. AND I think LeBron would be even BETTER than he was if he could deal with playing with a guy so obsessed with winning.

[@kaseemburr4825]

What a prime lebron and MJ duo would be insane. I also think it would benefit LeBron more and would end the Goat debate with LeBron being clearly better.

[@bhill005]

@@kaseemburr4825Advanced analytics prove LeBron is not clearly better, buddy -_-

[@host2498]

Low put it plainly. The only two criteria that matter is skill and winning. Even though winning is still team related and that's where it get's complex in determining which player had a greater impact toward those W's. i.e. Shaq/Kobe, KD/Curry, Lebron/Wade or Jordan/Pippen, you can probably see which players had the biggest effect and better skill set of those combos. And what really solidifies the debate is when you cross reference players across those combos i.e. is Curry better than Pippen (and extend it to their whole team). Basically how much help (which all players need) did you get to obtain all those wins. If you had 3 or even 4 stars together then you can't put the player who won with all of that above those who won with less or even less superior talent. Forget all the coulda woulda shoulda talk and look at what happened. Still heavily simplified but I'd start there

[@miraditanzambi4971]

@footonthelineNBA I just think it’s all subjective. Most NBA players care about rings but others care about skill and what it lead too or even how it looked like. Consistency matters though because for every argument you can make for one, 5 others make the same argument. I have Kobe as the greatest because I just think his skill set is unlike any other. 06 Kobe is closest thing You can get to a complete ball player, but that’s just my pov and I can make the same argument for 92-93 Jordan and 2012-13 lebron. It’s all about consistency

Stats tell us the most, frankly. Postseason stats relative to league averages, that is. This isn't everything, but it's the most valid argumentative framework. Within that, there's room for more subjectivity regarding how you're weighting different stats (wins/success, production as a percentage of team, efficiency, longevity, prime, clutch, etc.) before cross-referencing them. Regular season stuff doesn't matter by virtue of its nature. Awards decided by voters definitely don't matter when they can often be disproven thoroughly with statistics. But this is how you honestly engage with the question: you use the numbers that provide data accounting for what happens in a basketball game during the postseason relative to league average, and you maintain a static interpretive framework. Would be very easy to make an algorithm, if you feel so inclined. Also doesn't need to be a strict body of work basis, you can use stats to somewhat account for active players' trajectories by projection. Of course things happen and projections change so you can't put too much stock in it, but pace still matters in and of itself.

taking into account that the league changes so much each decade and most players in this debate never played in the same periods. a GOAT debate is honestly silly in retrospect. it’s an endless debate that people keep MJ in the throne spot by default to not go insane. rules also change from era to era, competition, and the overall league. a GOAT debate is an endless question like what is the meaning of life 💀 just say your favorite player and compare players who played against eachother 🤷🏽‍♂️
