It's Deja Vu. All of the arguments about "Era" and quality of opponents are the same as back then. "Different style of play", "Different position", etc. In 20 years we are going to have the same arguments over a different player. |

I already looked at it, thanks. I'm enjoying the laughs. It's sort of like reading people comparing rings between guys like Jordan and Kobe and LeBron as they debate about who's the best, while they're ignoring the Russell in the room.

But Russell played a LONG time ago, so he doesn't count.

No question, which is why I believe every Era will have their alpha dog that is put into the best ever discussion.

LeBron already passed Bird in career win shares last year at the age of 28. You might as well get over the idea that Bird was better than him sooner rather than later.

BTW, are you a big Boston fan in all sports? You didn't take kindly to the Brady remark either.

I don't take kindly (your words) to stupid stuff, regardless of team. We all say and write stupid shit sometimes, and we're obliged to take the heat for it when we do. I can also take bashing of my favorite teams and players when it's warranted. Your post on Brady was foolish, but you walked it back later, and it at least became sensible.

No need. I don't really worry about contrived statistics. I'll think about having watched all the NBA players since the 70s, and knowing what I've seen.
