Durant not being on the GOAT discussion is such a travesty.

he will be the real GOAT and have the rings to back it up.

>reminder that Jordan was in his late twenties when he won his first ring
DurGOD will cuck LeBeta with the Basedriors and win multiple rings + a threepeat.

He won't because Lelbron will retire this year and commit suicide.

That season when Durant won the MVP and averaged 32 points was so effortless, he was dropping 40 point games left and right was insane to watch.

Doing it all at as a damn near 7 footer. The list of players that can guard him 1 on 1 is about as small as the people that are better than him

Who can stop /us/ now

He is better than Lebron. Now we see them on equal teams. Before we see Durant on a shittier OKC team. If Durant was on the 2007 Cavs he might have won at least two games against the Spurs.

The sport is basketball.

The highest level of play of basketball is the NBA.

The highest level of achievement in the NBA is the annual championship.

It is possible for individual player to achieve multiple NBA championships, in concert with various teams, by playing in the league for a course of years, or: a career.

Thus, the GOAT (greatest of all time) appellation, as it applies to individual players, very obviously means: what individual person(s) have participated in the largest number of NBA championships?

And there is a very simple and straightforward answer to this question: Bill Russell. Bill Russell is the GOAT of the sport of basketball, by dint of the fact that he has personally amassed the greatest number of championships. If you disagree, then you are wrong, and you do not understand what the point of athletic competition is: to amass the greatest number of championships possible. Bill Russell has done so, and not Michael Jordan, not Kareem, and least of all Lebron, in this particular sport, anyway.

If you disagree, then you are clearly wrong. You have only to reflect on yourself to know that it is true.

Fast forward 9 years from now the Dubs and DurGoat will get 11 Championships and will be more than Russel.

Russel BTFO like RUssel Westbrick

>>76347329

If you say so flip. And if an individual player eclipses Bill Russel, the current GOAT of the sport of basketball, then, and only then, will he truly be the GOAT - or tied for GOAT at least. And not before.

The rest is either meaningless, or commentary. Only the individual(s) tied for all-time NBA championships are the GOAT(s). None other.

Ever.

In the modern NBA where you're playing against multiple skilled teams do you take someone like Shaq because they're a dominate player or do you take Bill because he has 8 rings?
