He should he’s 37,000 ft tall

That's why Tacko Fall and Bol Bol are right up there with Wemby and Chet. Also why Shawn Bradley is an all time great. It's why Stromile Swift and Keon Clark were multi MVPs like Giannis. The fact is, as long as you're tall you're guaranteed to be among the greats.

yeah just like Lebron should be one of the goats with the body he has

It’s still VERY impressive. I always hate when basketball fans always respond to an impressive feat about a player with “He should, he’s tall”. Damn give these folks some credit.

It is very impressive. However, there is nothing wrong acknowledging that it takes less skill to be a successful basketball player when you are 7'4" with an 8' wingspan then if you are 6'2" with a 6' wingspan.
