We have another person that doesn’t have Michael Jordan as the GOAT. Which, as you know, I support at all times. Lets stir it up a little! What I have to simply say MJ is the GOAT because everyone else says so? I know the reasons, I respect the man. But he ain’t the GOAT. I think that, and so does Walt Frazier.
“If I had to pick a guy it would be Wilt Chamberlain, because if you look at his records, it’s hilarious, nobody will approach any of his records. So he would be my guy. Bill Russell would be behind him. A guy who is always overlooked is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar — the leading scorer in the history of the game. The skyhook is the most lethal weapon the game has ever seen, but when people talk about the greatest player he’s not even in the top five.”
Alright, I have a bone to pick about the Kareem bit. Why do you people hate on Kareem? Is there anybody else that has a move that is labelled “The Most Unstoppable Shot Ever”? I’ll wait.
And I get why people pick Wilt, I think people are just afraid to commit because of the lack of footage compared to other players. I mean if there was a highlight reel of Wilt’s famous 100 point game, the same type of highlight reel we see everyday, I bet you some people would be more warm to having Wilt in the GOAT argument.
