HAKEEM BTFO

Reminder that David Robinson's top 5 win shares seasons are 20.0 18.3 17.5 17.0 15.1.
Hakeem's are 15.8 14.3 12.4 11.2 10.9.
Hakeem's best season is David Robinson's 5th best.

Reminder that 95 Rockets was the original Ringchaser snake team. Hakeem had HoFer teammates playing for peanuts while David Robinson had Sean Elliot.

1. Michael Jordan
2. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
3. Magic Johnson
4. LeBron James
5. Larry Bird
6. Wilt Chamberlain
7. Shaquille O'Neal

Doesn't really get more pathetic than that. Real list:

Late-as-fuck reply, but home chooses their uniform first, then away.

>>77477124
>Yet Hakeem is a consensus top 10 all-time great while Robinson is nowhere to be found.
I already explained why. Hakeem scored 20+ in inefficient but flashy ways, by twisting and dancing around in the post while dribbling for 15+ seconds. D-Rob and Duncan just faced up and shot, or, in the case of D-Rob, just blew by his man. Just far more efficient and clean in how they approached the game.
Same in defense. Hakeem got a lot of flashy weakside blocks because Thorpe did all the dirty work.
Honestly I don't think there is a more overrated player in NBA history.

>>77477186
Forgot to add, Hakeem then got carried to 2 rings by Sam Cassell and Horry while MJ was playing baseball. Truly a pathetic career.

Why is this one Spurs fan so fucking asshurt about shit that happened 20 years ago?

I also like the implication that Hakeem's rings don't count because Jordan wasn't playing, when Robinson only won a ring once he got Duncan and MJ retired for the second time.

>After Kobe announced his retirement, many peers and colleagues expressed their gratitude to Bryant for his legacy to the sport. Among the first to offer his praise was his former Lakers teammate, Magic Johnson. “There will never be another Kobe Bryant” Johnson said, “He’s going to go down as one of the greatest that has ever played. I put him up there right below Michael Jordan as the two greatest scorers I’ve ever seen probably in the history of this game.”

David Robinson is one of those players who legitimately played way worse in the playoffs than in the regular season, though.

I don't care that much about rings but IMO you have to take a lot of credit away from guys like Robinson and Malone who legitimately did not perform well in the playoffs.

Hakeem, by contrast, played better in the playoffs if anything.

People seem to love to discredit steph. He's already top 5. Already second best PG in history. He can score any moment he steps past half court. Made 400 three pointers in a season. Led the best regular season team ever. 2 rings and counting. I know it's early in his career but if curry played in the 80s or some other earlier era he'd be seen as a legend and the epitomy of a skilled player just based on how unguardable he is.

>>77478269
Curry is top 5 but Magic is definitely not top 10.

another player that doesn't get the respect he deserves is bird. So many people rank magic over him just because of rings. But if that's the case bill russell > wilt. Bird is basically the same player as magic but with a good jump shot and not as good teammates. Magic was carried to couple rings while Bird led. Also bird has 3 first defense team and magic has none. He was a better scorer, rebounder, and honestly their passing was equal. Magic just led the offense more.

can a guy a you? its been a rough night.

think i have a wart on my balls

>>77478293
here you go bud

curry is literally the best point guard ever. If I'm playing a pick up game and no one else is good enough to score, I'm taking curry over magic. If I'm playing one on one, I'm taking the guy that doesn't miss jump shots over the tall passer. If I'm in the finals and need someone to win the game, I'm taking the best shooter ever over magic. If I want someone kids can look up to, I'm taking the relatable steph curry. Give me one reason why any point guard is better than curry

>>77478313
3-1

No team in the west has made the playoffs being under .500 in 20 years. Along with that the average 8th seed in the west has had over 45 wins, and twice the 8th seed has had 50 wins. With the west having gotten stronger than ever (allstars jimmy butler, paul george, paul milsap coming west and and only losing Gordon Hayward), why would anyone bet that the lakers will be able to make the playoffs because they added a rookie, a bum from detroit who doesn't even shoot 40%, and a center infamous for being 7'1 yet unable to rebound. Doesnt look at all like the minimum 15 win improvement necessary to make the playoffs

Hakeem scored fewer points and shot like 10% worse. I know it happened before you were born, but you can at least look up the boxscores or something.

Here are their stats when they were guarded by each other:
Shaq 32-57 (56.1 FG%), 6-8 FT, 67.3 double teamed%, .578 TS%, 17 assists, 1 O-reb allowed to Hakeem
Hakeem: 31-75 (41.3 FG%), 9-13 FT, 60.2 double teamed%, .446 TS%, 8 assists, 3 O-reb allowed to Shaq

LeBron isn't even better than a past his prime Tim Duncan. How can you possibly rank him top 5 let alone top 10?

A real debate is Kobe vs Duncan.

Sefelosha is Euro. Why is he on team Africa?

This.

Got swept by Timmy in his prime, choked hard in 2013 and should've lost in 6 but Pop benched Duncan like a retard and Ray Allen made the most clutch shot ever from a offensive rebound from Bosh that wouldn't have happened if Duncan was boxing him out like usual, all off the unclutch brick of a LeBron James three. Luckiest ring ever.
Then got embarrassed by the highest point differential in a Finals series ever by the most beautiful basketball man has ever seen.

I don't think Jah will ever be a genuinely good player in the NBA. I don't really think he's ever going to get better at defense - it's both physical limitations and mental ones. And it's just really hard to build a championship team around a post player who is that bad at defense. And the fact that he's able to get points consistently means that he's going to be highly paid despite his limitations which means whatever team is paying him is going to be shackled by his contract. Having players like Jah on your team is actively bad in the modern NBA because they contribute so much less than they earn.

Like... I think Jah is most likely a slightly better version of Enes Kanter. And we just saw a playoffs where Kanter literally could not stay on the floor. They literally couldn't play him at all in the playoffs. How are you going to try and invest and build around Jah when the same thing is most likely going to happen to him?

>>77484326
Do you idiots ever actually stop and think about the fact that there are 5 players on a basketball court? The Heat lost to the Spurs in the finals, that does not mean that Bron personally lost to Duncan.

Kobe is actually a good example. Won a lot of finals but how much credit can you give him when he never won without an elite big man who was either straight up better than him or at least as good

He'd be amazing in the right situation but he might never be in the right situation. The only time his situation was right in Sacramento was with Malone, and the Kings fucked that up. And the roster in New Orleans is just so bad after you get past him and Davis.

The thing is, the dude is a fucking warrior, and he needs to be in a situation where it's OK for him to be a fucking warrior. He needs to trust that the people around him are honorable, because he's honorable and that's what he values from people. It's really hard for him to deal with it when people aren't honorable. He's hot blooded. And that's hard to find in today's day and age because there are a lot of snakes in the league.

Put him in a situation with a coach he trusts and respects and good players around him who fit and that's going to be an amazing team.

>>77489586
>has made Iggy Azalea get an absurd amount of plastic surgery on her face in a spiral of depression and insecurity
Doesn't even seem that bad compared to what she already has unless she ends up looking like Amy Anderssen with makeup.

Boogie Cousins is basically the big-man equivalent of Russell Westbrook. And that's a fact. The difference is that he was never in a situation like Russ' in Sacramento, whether it's with regards to his teammates, the FO, the coaches, anything.

I'm sorry but if Westbrook blew out his knee tomorrow and never played another day in the NBA he'd still be in the HOF. What the hell are you talking about?

1. Michael Jordan
2. Magic Johnson
3. Hakeem Olajuwon
4. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
5. Shaquille O'Neal
6. Larry Bird
7. Tim Duncan
8. Wilt Chamberlain
9. Kobe Bryant
10. LeBron James

Why did you even mention Westbrook? Rose is definitively the only one that will not make it regardless.
