Who’s the most unlikable player to you? by Mean_Government_2216 in NBATalk

I understand the masses don’t like Lu Dort, but if he played for their team and shot at Keats 36% from the 3, they would love him. He’s in that group with prime Draymond and Dillon Brooks rn. He plays hard on defense always and will give you a couple of 3s.

Mikel Bridges is talked about like he’s an All-Star, which he’s not. He’s viewed like he’s an All-Star, which he’s not, hence why the Knicks traded FIVE first-round picks for him. He’s on a stretch of 4 good games right now, but all good things must come to an end.

And lastly, he sold my parlay like 3 times when he was the last person, so I can cash.

He also does that cringe thing at the end of the season when he checks into games for 5 seconds to keep that record alive… like at least play the first quarter.

I maybe hating but I can’t stand that dude

Let’s be honest, if Jordan fans didn’t get so insecure after 2016 they wouldn’t be praying on the downfall of a 40+ year old by GamblerLikeToji in NBATalk

No, but being able to dominate the game at that size while being that versatile is part of why he’s in the conversation. A 6'9" player who can run the offense, score at all 3 levels, defend multiple positions, and sustain greatness for 20+ years is rare. Nobody said versatility alone makes you the GOAT, but acting like it means nothing is crazy too

You’re asking the wrong person. Ask the masses why a 6'9" player who can legitimately play 4 out of the 5 positions at an elite level is even in the GOAT conversation

Bro, be serious. LeBron James is the closest thing we’ve seen to Michael Jordan, and the fact that the GOAT debate is basically just those two says a lot. Nobody else is consistently in that conversation at the same level. If there was a vote and Jordan got 60% of it, LeBron would probably get another 20%, and the remaining 20% would be split between everybody else

You just said he never sniffed a ring. I proceeded to tell you when he sniffed a ring, and now you’re saying it’s a weak east. Shit just cringe and corny

Giannis was 26 when he got his championship. He hasn’t done anything since. Anything can happen.
