How did he do it?

>>68882168

26.4ppg on 56% from the field over 17 years is hella impressive

>played in the weakest era in NBA history for his prime
>won one championship right away because he was on a team with Oscar fucking Robertson
>then nothing for almost a decade
>until Magic Johnson, the greatest point guard and a stacked team
>gets carried past his prime to titles

Literally THE meme player. He shouldn't be higher than 9-10 on any decent list.

If /sp/ existed back then all of you would be complaining that the skyhook is a meme shot

if Iverson was 6'6, he'd be the GOAT
>>
>>68882589
He wouldn't have the same handles, if he went to a different team he woulda be GOAT
>>
Wilt was greater.
Wilt didn't have Magic feeding him the ball all day.
>>
>>68882789
If he was taller he would literally just be Michael Jordan, he wouldn't need handles. The only reason he adopted that crossover of his is because he couldn't just blaze by people all the time and had to make space on bigger defenders. I think Iverson would've been better than Jordan at the same height, is all.

>>68882589

What about Zeke?
>>
>>68881915
No

First of all, it's difficult to put centers into all-time lists since their game is so vastly different than the other 4 positions. But even putting them in the mix, he's #5 or 6. Second best center behind Wilt
>>
Hard to be the goat when you dont play defense
>>
>>68885995

he's 3rd all time in blocks, and lead the league in blocks for 4 seasons
>>
>>68886093

blocks are a meme stat

what was his defensive rtg on/off, drebounding %, and opponent fg% especially near the rim?

pau gasol was #5 in blocks this year and had a shitload of rebounds yet was a trashcan defender
>>
>>68881915

1: MJ
2: KAJ
3: LB

it is known
>>
>>68886151

99 d-rtg, 21.7 d-rb% (better earlier in his career, got worse towards the end)

lead the league in defensive win shares twice

he was rightfully more renowned for his offense, but he was by no means a bad defender
>>
>>68886193
1.MJ
2. LJ
3. WC
>>
>>68881915
3rd behind legod and jordan
>>
>>68885995
he has 11 all defense selections
