A Newbies Take on the G.O.A.T.

[WillyJakkz]

Great work here and I think you are spot on. I think you missed on Ayton but well done man.

Can you even be in the hall of fame/ Goat conversation without a championship? I know Ayton has all star appearances but so does Jordan McLaughlin

There's players on the List that don't have titles (Zion Luka but they have the MVP's) Stanley Johnson so good call on Ayton.

Outta sight outta mind without a GM.

What's hilarious is I don't even recall LeBron James or Kawhi Leonard and their impact on the League.

That's why they are listed in consideration, lol but without a title they don't belong in the top 5 imo

LeBron was almost always on 2nd round teams with one WCF trip. Kawhi stuck too long in Toronto, made some runs but i don't think he was ever the top guy. Then came real close to winning it all with Chicago

[secondroundbust]

Kawhi 5x All Star, 3x All-CSL 3rd team
LeBron 3x All Star, 1x 1st Team Def, 1x All-CSL 1st team, 3x 2nd Team, 1x 3rd team


At least that’s what my numbers say! The list I compiled SHOULD have pretty much everyone who was an All Star/All-CSL/All Defense player

Wow and thanks guys.

Yeah I didn't recall LeBron being a factor but I also can't remember his teammates. I only recall Kawhi being in MIL when I traded to pair him with Paul George but the GM reneged when confirming due to protections on a pick traded to me that wasn't disclosed.

But man that Paul George Kawhi Leonard pairing would've been lethal, ironically yrs before they paired irl on the Clippers.

We've been doing this a really long time guys.

you're probably thinking of LeBron not Kawhi, LeBron was in Milwaukee when Manu first took over (or he traded for LeBron, can't remember)

and yeah we've been doing this for a looong time, and i'm glad you brought it up because us and BI go back even further to the GM games on realgm which i'd been doing since i was a teen

Aww man I remember the first time playing those RealGM drafts when we had a 2 or 4hr window. It was so new and addictive I literally got up and walked out of church to check and make my pick
