People mad I made my list without Bias πŸ˜‚

You seem a bit biased towards modern players and bigs

[–] Minimum-Luck2430@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Out of 20 Players, only 4 I picked are in the NBA currently? How is that bias? I'm not even gonna comment on the second part of your comment. Again this is a greatest players list. It's positionless.

Your 11-20 looks fine, but in the top 10 you got three centers in the top 5 which is strange to me. I honestly couldnt justify having those bigs so much higher than Magic, Bird, etc but to each their own I guess.

And based on your #1 and #6 you clearly have some biases. Which is fine but don't say "without bias" lol

Steph Curry is the greatest shooting point guard of all time. Magic Johnson is the greatest consummate point guard ever. They are interchangeable based on preference and how your team is built.

Statistically speaking, James is doing better than Jordan and will have better stats when it’s all said and done. I'm not going to go into this, but if you have Jordan at #1, I respect it, if you have LeBron at #1, I respect it.
