I said magic could score, not shoot. Really, Jordan wasn't that great of a shooter until he got older if we are going to be real about it Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app

Yes he would have...go back and watch some of those games in the finals that he totally dominated. Or at least watch highlights. Gonna have to just agree to disagree on this one Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app

Question: if you had to pick between LeBron James before 30 or Larry Bird before 30, who would you pick? And feel free to look at stats before answering Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app

Exactly. Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app

To expand on that a little, magic Johnson probably could have averaged as many points per game as Michael Jordan if that is what his coach wanted him to do. Magic was a playmaker, with a really high assist average. I think that the coach's perception of how he wanted to use that player makes a lot of that players history too Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app

Granted Miller would have been the beta to Jordan's alpha in that scenario. Im not debating that at all. My point was that if Miller had played on those bulls teams and won that many championships, wouldn't that make him higher on all of the greatest players list? Barkley was a dominant player that had the bad luck of not so great teams (see manning, peyton). I think it has to be noted who LeBron has played with in his career, much like Jordan has. For the record, in the 80s and 90s, Jordan in my opinion was the best player in the league. But, the most dominant player in NBA history as an individual has to be wilt chamberlain, once again, in my opinion. There are too many different variables when deciding the best player. It can't possibly be done without it just being an opinion. For me, I think more credit should be given to Jerry West and Bob cousy. Not saying they belong in the best ever, but they were certainly dominant in their own way. As for lebron, he's a forward...I have trouble comparing him to guards.

Keep in mind I am not trying to discourage anyone from the conversation. I think it is fun to try to debate. I just don't think it is as cut and dried as some try to make it out to be. Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app

How can anyone justify an argument on anyone being a better player than anyone else? The only thing you can really debate is who the best player of this era is. That is clearly LeBron. Jordan, bird, magic played in a different time, as did russell, Chamberlain, and Robertson. Its really kind of tough to debate who is better in this era. Kobe had shaq, who was a dominant force for a while in L.A. LeBron has had really good teams that he has played with. But consider this: what if Reggie Miller had played with Michael and the bulls? What if Michael didn't have scottie, rodman, etc in the latter half of the career? These are all variables that go through my head when I see debates like this. That's why I just don't try Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app

Everything may think I'm nuts, but I truly believe college basketball would be better to get rid of the one year rule completely. Just let them go straight to the NBA from high school Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app -

Arizona vs IU series coming to a town near.....

I think he put a spin on junkyard dog...which technically by the words of Webster's dictionary could be used as dog, doggy, dawg, pup, etc. etc. etc. It's his post, he can probably use any variation of the word dog he chooses. Hope that clears anything up lol Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app -

I have always heard the term dawg as in a junkyard dog in basketball..happily, a lot of the Dayton players under Archie mostly had that mentality Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app -

He was saying that because Louisville breaks rules, and that Cal is a total slimeball. And he's right. But that would make it oh so much sweeter to beat them Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app -

Pretty simple really...I don't debate it...all I can do is pick my favorites of each. For example, the greatest player in my mind is wilt Chamberlain. Nobody has been as good in their prime as wilt...the best team(dynasty) is the Boston Celtics with Bill Russell. That doesn't mean either choice is the consensus. So there ya go Sent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile app

I think Jordan himself said it best when he said that the best player of all time is a silly discussion....what everyone should be talking about is the best Team. Its impossible to talk about the greatest player ever with so many changing eras. How can we know how LeBron would fare in the 80s and 90s and how Jordan would do today, or in the 50s.
