**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

Won game 7 for the bucks. That was one of the biggest screwjobs. Ai easily one of the most overrated players ever. Inefficient chucker that never won anything.,

 

[addict4sneakers]

People gotta stop bringing up AI's FG% like he wasn't playing in a totally different era where defenders could by physical and knock him around. The best Guards in the league was only shooting 42-45% from the field. Hate doing hypotheticals but put a 25 year old Kobe or TMac in todays game they're shooting 47-49%. Harden plays in a softer era AND still shoots terrible in the playoffs and looks lost when he can't get to the FT line.

What did Allen Iverson do that Kemba Walker can't?

 

[monstar]

Harden hasn't passed a.i. yet ?

Ai once won a conference finals game shooting 5/27 . Yet he carried that team....

Post above proves that point, nobody on that team outside of Mutombo is mentioned ever again outside of playing with AI.

I think he’s over AI. Idk enough about West to comment on him. What about Drexler?

I still dont see the hype with Drexler yea he was a great athlete but dude only had 1 hand (greatest only left hand player of all time)

So harden passed drexler, Reggie, monroe, ice man? Shiiiiiiii

Only person of note listed on this list is the Ice man and Earl the others are overrated in my opinion.

Snow, McKie and Dikembe were quite good tbh.

How so? Snow and McKie could create a shot?

Mutombo was great on Defense but outside of Shaq who did he really have to shut down during that run?

An MVP that should've gone to Shaq. Harden has an MVP too, that he actually deserved.



So this is based on one game? Makes sense. And it wasn't really by himself. Kobe did as much as Iverson to help Philly win that game. 7-22 shooting with 6 turnovers.

"But Iverson's 2001 run"

Against juggernauts like the 2001 Pacers, Raptors, and Bucks, and they needed extremely one-sided officiating to get past Milwaukee. Meanwhile Harden's teams have lost to the Warriors 3 times.

Cant you say the same thing for a Shaq led Lakers against the Kings tho the very next year? (donaghy)

Nobody is asking you to participate. We know where YOU stand..

I just never thought Kobe was a CONSENSUS Top 10.

Jordan
Bird
Magic
Kareem
Wilt
Russell
Hakeem
Shaq
Duncan
LeBron

Are the top 10 that I GENERALLY see in people's Top 10s.

Kobe might be in there in place of someone on a few lists but CONSENSUS, I never saw it (from people).

Again, Kobe IS my dude

Im sorry but Bill Russell is only on this list bc of how dominant those Celtics teams were and they were dominant before he got there.
And Wilt was still averaging 30 against him

It's not a knock, just a fact. Similarly Russ is got an overabundance of physical gifts yet lacks skill in most areas. Steph plays below the rim. The original talk was about KD being possibly top 3 talented ever. He's 7 feet, with guard skills, that has unlimited range. That's never been seen before. We've seen people with Bron's body type before and skill (Malone and Magic) but not necessarily the combo of both. Wilt was a Olympic class athlete. And MJ was really at the top of both. It's a top 3 or 5 or whatever, everybody can't be in it.

Thanks for clarity but Dirks finals run where they beat the Heat trumps anything KD has done with the Warriors, and Im a dubs fan.

KD benefits from having 3 other great players giving him the spacing. Thats my opinion, he is still great but he shouldve closed the deal with OKC on atleast 2 occassions. But now because he plays with Steph Klay and Draymond he is unstoppable. Dubs lost after being up 3-1 to Lebron they aint lose to KD

[monstar]

What did Allen Iverson do that Kemba Walker can't?

Similar styles but AI played in a time where midrange jumpers were acceptable and a big part of the game.

I'd also say AI in his prime is more athletic then Kemba

DCAllAfrican Not even hating or being confrontational for the sake of being confrontational. Do you ever think maybe you might be wrong, or your opinion is just an opinion like everyone else's?
You just come across as someone who thinks his opinions are facts and gospel. Maybe it's just how you communicate online but that's my worthless 2cents.

Yes

New look sixers tonight

The fit isn't seamless so I'm intrigued to see how Butler plays with Simmons & Embiid.

[amitt5504]

Iverson slander won’t be tolerated. Harden has not passed him

But Iverson is below a bunch of others in the SG rankings. Bias aside

 

[sohi 23]

Thread all over the place.


Lets get it. Some good games tonight.
Debut of Butler will be fun.
