PSD Top 25 GOAT Rankings Summary (Opinion Thread - Overrated/Underrated/Snubbed?)

[Chronz]

LeBron literally left Cleveland because he "couldn't carry his team" to a championship... He gets a pass?

Kawhi got his first FMVP and ship before LeBron. He was traded as a one-year rental and won a championship with that team... so we are now penalizing Kawhi for winning on a good team with a good coach when LeBron has played with higher top end talented players since leaving Cleveland?

At what point do you take off the hater glasses and realize your opinion is anything BUT objective?

We sucked without Kawhi this year too

[Iggie]

Why? He is literally better than Wade in every aspect of the game minus playmaking.

Kawhi is the better defender, the more efficient scorer, the better shooter/spacer, more clutch, didn't need to ride anyone's coat to win multiple championships, more FMVPs...

If Kawhi is puke worthy, what does that make Wade?

Hahaha I’ve never seen someone with so much hate in their heart. We understand Wade ripped your life to pieces in 06, get over it. It’s been like 15 years.

Don't you have some non-existent homes you own that you're trying to rent out?

If you aren't too busy with your Trump real estate empire, please explain how Kawhi isn't superior to all aspect of the game minus playmaking.

**** Trump and I’m not debating with a troll just wanted to mess with you real quick.

Ill admit he, much like KG, should've been #2's offensively and then we would've seen them truly thrive in the playoffs.

We might have seen his team not fail bc a true first option got the job done but I don’t think we would have seen him thrive in an all time great kind of way be you have to be an the guy that makes the important plays to do that


Knicksorbust has mentioned bringing these guy forward to modern era and if you did that D-Rob incredible speed and length combined with the leagues down sizing might have elevated him to
the point where he did have that level of impact. In his era I don’t believe he belongs on this list

I’d say they both needed solid #2’s offensively. Look at AD, he’s a beast that can’t get out of the 2nd round without a solid #2. Put him with the best player in the a World and he outplays him half the time. Give prime Drob prime Clyde drexler and Prime Worthy with a Pop coaching, and they 3 peat and Drob will have 3 finals MVP’s

Prime D Wade is harder to stop offensively than KL in my opinion, but it’s close. Prime DWades finals over Dallas was off the chain and better than anything KL has done.

Would you put Hakeem ahead of KAJ/Shaq/Wilt?

Top 5 big men

Seeing as he’s top 5 ever in career bmp/Per and #2 ever in career win48, he’s underrated as hell on this list of peak players. He had bad coaches that didn’t last more than a year throughout his prime and still managed this. The stats say he’s a top 5 regular season player ever.

Maybe, this league is trash, you dont need as many go-to moves and counters in the post/midrange. But when D-Rob played with Duncan, his defensive impact stats were legendary and we saw him finally not fall off a cliff come playoffs. We saw the same with KG when he became less of a focal point.

Some players were put in roles

I dont see it, the games changed and maybe he would be better today but AD wasn't having the struggles that D-Rob was come playoffs so its not even a fair comp on that alone. AD might be the 2nd best PF of all-time when its all said and done. Hell Clyde might be the better offensive player to allow D-Rob to be the KG to his Pierce.

Falling behind the pecking order offensively doesn't mean you cant be the best player.

i would take KL over wade as well... its def close but outside of that 1 title wade was a beta.

Kareem is tough because his career is just so impressive but looking at him you don't see overpowering strength (Shaq) or athleticism (Hakeem/Wilt). I feel like he's a better Duncan but we didn't get to watch him play night in and night out. You can't argue with the resume though. The fact that no one has tried to emulate the unguardable hookshot by the all-time leading scorer just shows you how much finesse and skill it takes to consistently make a shot like that.

You’re right, he was only the best player on his team for 1 season of his career.
