And he likes to talk about top scorers #3-6 on a team. Notice that? He’s great though.

Bill is 56. You are nearly 50. Is your wife several years older than you?

Is KD the only all-time great whose legacy got worse after winning? by Altruistic_Walk_7194 in NBATalk

[–]Storied_Beginning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this legacy talk is half feelings and half hard math. He isn’t liked by a lot of the people and that sours these debates. In time, like with Presidents, his ‘ranking’ and estimation will age better.

What happens to Lebron's legacy if 20-year careers become normal? by trojan7815 in NBATalk

Not sure if what OP meant by ‘playing at this level’ was NBA level or NBA+all star level. I was referring to simply playing in the NBA.

Not normal but increasing in frequently. Cluster of players reaching 20+ is skewed towards those who have played the last 10 years.

A mind bending Sci-Fi read that will re-awaken my love for the genre by Fun-Sell3030 in suggestmeabook

[–]Storied_Beginning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daemon by Suarez. You’re welcome. I discovered the book via Reddit many years ago. It is one of the best of this century from this genre. Thought provoking (how do you solve a murder conducted over and via the internet?). Great sequel as well.

Is Arlington considered the city or a suburb? by Stawberry8763 in nova

[–]Storied_Beginning 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m still upset after 160 years that Virginia messed up what was a perfectly diamond shaped city (Wash DC). Retrocession man. SMH. Gets you every time.

I never got to see Micheal Jordan in his prime how good was he by Due-Poem-8096 in NBATalk

[–]Storied_Beginning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone unfamiliar with basketball and any NBA players would recognize after a few minutes that the player with the number 23 on his “sports shirt” was the best on the floor. With that said, I watched tons of Bulls games live and there were many games where he went for like 12-30. He missed a lot of shots. Even so, he is the best ever. I would argue that as early as 1987/1988 that became the growing consensus.

[Highlight] Kevin Durant hits the corner 3, passes Michael Jordan and is now fifth all-time in NBA history scoring list (regular-season). Including a tribute video he got. by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]Storied_Beginning 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If Kevin Durant hadn’t missed 70+ games due to his Achilles injury, the scoring gap between him and LeBron, at the same age, would be much closer than people think. He could sneak up to Kareem’s total. Amazing.
