    Skills? Anybody master the skyhook yet? Who won at every level, including off the court!?

    Kareem deserves to be in that conversation and imho Kob and Jordan ain't even close.

    You never saw Kobe shoot a proper skyhook for his size? Sure Kareem is in the conversation but handles, Hakeem, Kobe, Jordan back to basket fine footwork skills?

    Can't appreciate Cap unless you saw him play in his prime, so this goat conversations would tilt in favor of the guys with highlights. KAJ's 6 MVPs were won when players voted for the award, when it was not a popularity contest. I think it was one reason, the NBA shifted the voting to the media, because Cap will win it every year the way he dominated.

    I only got to watch a bit tonight, but it’s intere how such a passive player gets the numbers he does. I chalk a lot of it up to natural talent and being smart.

    He may end up with some all time stats, but he’ll never be considered the GOAT by pretty much anyone that knows basketball.

    MJ is the GOAT. Kareem and Bron are next. Sorry Lakers fans but Kobe isn’t close. Kobe is 8-12 which is great in its own right but I know that won’t go well around here.

    I’m ready to get the hate from u guys lol

    You know, one of the things I liked about having a terrible team is that we wouldn't have the First Take wannabes coming out of the woodwork to post here...

    With this kind of great insight, you should rather expect to be ignored by the majority of this forum. Enjoy your stay.

    Even if I’m disagreed with a lot, at least I try to back up my arguments. You’re just a straight hater, and nobody likes that.

    The fact that you posted with the intention of getting hate shows how much fail you brought on yourself...
