Is there any other acceptable reply?
I think the conversation is between Kobe, Magic and Maybe Shaq. Remember in the mid 2000's Kobe us to essentially carry probably the worst laker teams in recent memory to the playoffs. Kobe was also arguably one of the better defensive guards of his day. Not to mention just how clutch he was.
I mean the west, Kareem and wilt are all considered but its pretty hard to get down to who was greater since we're debating about it in the current nba's context. Like would wilt still have been the 30 pts, 15 rbs monster he was with all the new rules? Wilt also didn't shoot free throws all that well. Kareem and west might probably stack better now imo since they're games are pretty versatile.
Prime Kareem and Shaq we're literally unguardable
