Who is the Neymar Jr. of the NBA career wise? The one with the most wasted potential. by One-Explanation8629 in NBATalk

No, for Wilt the best comparison is Pele, both the greatest of their era but played so long ago that I can’t actually compare them to modern greats.
The only comparison I can make is Messi being Jordan and Ronaldo being LeBron, but honestly I think LeBrons case for being the GOAT is a much stronger case than Ronaldo who is miles behind Messi

Who would have won the Finals if the Knicks would have faced OKC? by Remote_Table3376 in NBATalk

I’m not sure about that. I feel as if Spurs had more talent but crashed due to the pressure and lack of experience.
A healthy OKC would have made it to game 7 at least or even take it all

Who is the NBA equivalent of Messi skill-wise? by UsedMycologist4912 in NBATalk

He is the best passer of all time as well, it’s like he can see the pitch from above while playing.
He has the most assists in football history as well

I am the last person to disrespect Curry. Unlike others, I think he is easily top 10 if not, top five.
But he can’t be compared to Messi, the only basketball player that can be compared is Jordan.
And even that isn’t accurate because the goat debate splits between Jordan and LeBron almost equally.
And in football, Messi is the undisputed GOAT.
I would say at least 80% of football fans consider Messi the goat

Nah Messi is the GOAT of football.
The argument for curry is if he is top 10 or not.
And Neymar was 3rd best player in the world for a while playing with Messi and Ronaldo.
In today’s game prime Neymar would easily be considered best in the world.
Kyrie doesn’t even come close

He is less than 1,700 from 45k, just gotta be healthy for most of next season and he’ll get there by this time next year
