Don’t promote that garbage on this good show.
Lebron James is in the same conversation as Jerry West and Wilt Chamberlain. Great players that lost more then anyone.
@@friend1766 llllllllllllllllllllplppppppppppp
@@friend1766 Maybe. My point is, Steph just finished playing the best basketball of his life, and it was on a par with anything we've ever seen. So even if we're not used to the idea yet, if Steph continues this way, and perhaps even improves, two or three years from now we may be talking about him in the GOAT conversation...
Y’all claim lebron so great yet in the erra of his so called greatness he has lost so many titles .he teamed up with other players and win how many ? He’s great but not as y’all making him
Everything everyone does “STIRS UP” the Lebron GOAT debate 😂😂
Because of the CHEAT Lebron done for a DECADE!
Anything involving lebron is great for the algorithm
Somehow someway and like the comment above alluded it's great for ratings
@@Mercurial. go outside
@@josephdees6929
And u get inside, of the game!
Wildes laughing in the background is one of the best parts of this show 😂
So sad that even if Steph get 8 they still will find a way to hate #30 will go down in history as the new logo and get a spot above Rushmore of his own
Bryant should be the logo but your right
So right. They will find a way to belittle Steph smh

The disrespect on the late great Kobe Bryant never stops!!!
The disrespect started with Kobe’s 2000, 2001, 2004 and 2008 NBA Finals performance and also his 2011 WCSF’s performance…or lack there of.
Kobe Bryant, on contrary to popular belief, played below averaged to poor in the most of his Finals appearances.
So annoying
@@massdagod lmao you don't know ball next you gonna tell me LeBron performed well against the spurs and mavs
@@CALI_KINGCFC he knows his stuff. Kobe is the reason the Lakers loss to the pistons in the finals. He was very inefficient at times
@@mxybeyesterdaygrip2568 putting the loss to the pistons solely on Kobe does not even paint a 1/3rd of what happened that series. Let's say Kobe was the reason the Lakers weren't performing what about an answer for the pistons on defense? I blame Kobe for certain things but I can't for that
Steph curry is in a Tim Duncan category for me. Both selfless leaders that helped create a great organizational culture and maybe #1 all time at their position and both deserving to be in the top 10 all time. Their organization helped them realize their best potential and leaving that organization would have an affect on them.
Could say that for any top player
Exactly Steph is the new Duncan !
@@bjrnthebootybandit No you can't. I'll give you 2 examples.
Shaq: Didn't create a great organizational culture. He hindered it. And openly admits that because of his selfishness, his Penny and Kobe teams never reached their full potential.
Lebron: Wins rings with whatever organization he sets foot in. He maximizes the potential of organizations, not the other way around.
steph curry is going to be dramatically underrated just like tim duncan. his willingness to be unselfish is going to be used against him. his team culture is going to be used against him. it’s insane.
@@nateolison7553 huh? Lakers hadn't won for a decade and Shad lead them to a 3 peat. That's hindering an organisation? He moves to Miami and they win again. Aite bet
The fact that Kareem and Magic played together is never brought up. But Kd winning with steph is 😆
Funny how nick mentioned it today 😆
I don't have a problem with Kareem and Magic because that pairing happened organic6 through the draft. While I do have a problem with the player empowered Super team spearheaded by LeBron, I don't blame KD because his actions were a response to LeBron's. He just did it better. Had LeBron not done it snd made a spectacle of it with a 1 hour TV special with his, "Not 1, Not 2,..."
KD may have stayed put or moved without noise. However, KD did it. Playing chess while LeBron played checkers. I give much respect to Giannis who truly earned his chip the old fashioned way.
Steph's numbers are great, his win percentage is better, and he's absolutely changed the game. He's up there with Wilt and Jordan for the most influential players.
He hasn't changed the game at all. Stop the Steven A ignorance.
@@keithjoseph128I miss when trolls used to be funny
@@spencerj4677 miss when the media didn't run fake narratives.
I would put Magic and Bird in there as most influential players. Most kids wanted to be one of them when we played pick up. Bird's shooting and Magic's passing was legendary.
Influetial inside the game ? Jordan didnt change the game common men he just make it popular
Steph Curry Is watching this and watch him win 2 to 3 more rings!!!
Facts! Lol
I am seriously curious what these clowns will say when Steph got his 5th. Bronsexual will lose their mind for sure 😂
@Aaron9 Lol excuses is a hellava drug!
Recency bias is why I hate the watching the nba sometimes. Curry draymond and all of them getting older and younger teams are emerging in the west and curry is going to win three more rings??? Curry is going to be 35 next year btw
Even if He wins more, he will still not be in the same category as LBJ for the GOAT. Steph only has one finals mvp and Lebron has 4. Curry needs to win at least 3 finals MVP and 5 championships at least.
I thought Chris would never stop lol can’t imagine if he ended up sayin “ if Steph wins 8 rings … “ 😭😭😭
I would have threw my phone 😂😂😂💀
He really exposed the Jordan fans on that one. Imagine thinking Steph isn't the GOAT after SEVEN rings and 4 finals MVPs. Basically no human will ever be able to surpass MJ in their eyes. 🤦🏾♂️
@@asieduy yea if Steph won 7 rings and 4 fmvp and wasnt the goat or at least incredibly close idk what people expect from players
@@asieduy He wouldn't surpass Jordan at all tho lol
@@asieduy I mean Nick wouldn't have Steph above Lebron after 6 rings and 3 FMVPs, so he exposed himself/lebron fans lmao. But 7 and 4 would lol
Nicks all about nuance until it’s time to explain why MJ has more all defensive selections and DPOYs than lebron in less years 🤷♂️
He was a way better defender than Lebron man. Just got to watch their tape and it screams. Jordan was legendary on the ball. Best non big defender I done ever seen by far. Bron a nice help defender in his prime - nothing more - nothing less.
Last 5 years - he can't guard an empty room.
Its not just an award thing - its an ability thing. Jordan could really do it.
And Kobe
@@erikpuka2627 well Jordan only played 15 years if he played 5 more seasons u would probably say the same thing about Jordan tho lebron in his prime is a lockdown defender he should have won dpoy too
Those are media vote based awards lol Jordan deserved more defensive selections tbh but anyone with common sense knows Lebron was robbed of a DPOY award when Marc Gasol won it yet was not even put on the first team all defence list. Also it’s a seasonal award, Bron never had a playoffs where he wasn’t a top defender in his 19 seasons. Jordan was a more consistent defender overall but judging and comparing them based on media votes is kinda weird bruh.
bron is an elite defender who can guard 1-5. also he was robbed of DPOY
Curry 3 rings:
if curry won a finals mvp we can put him on the top 10
Curry finals MVP:
if curry wins another ring we can talk about him being top 10
🤦🏽♂️they always got something to say
Fr
Ring counting didn’t start for Jordan, he was widely considered the GOAT in the early 90s. The belief in the 80s was if Jordan won 1 title then he could become the GOAT. It was more widely believed after the back to back and sealed after the 3 peat
yeah MJ wasn't the goat til basically after he retired if we being real *98
@@phatch5444 I watch the NBA since 87...MJ was the GOAT after the first 3peat.
@@thedudeunchained7583 What's crazy is that Jordan at the end of the 80's said that he basically accepted that he might not win a championship by the end of his career. Crazy to hear MJ said something that. I forgot where I saw the interview
@@thedudeunchained7583 definitely
If u really watched 90s ball the media mount Rushmore was bird mj and magic... They didn't start talking greatest of all time till 93.. Then he cemented in 98
Everybody that watches this show is gonna become a Warriors fan just so that Nick has to reluctantly call Steph Curry the GOAT 😂😂
No one who knows basketball is ever going to call Curry the GOAT.
@@thomascrowniii1693 what if they won 4 straight? Jordan never did that
@@thomascrowniii1693 You could argue pound for pound he is already the GOAT. Take away MJ's hangtime and Bron's bulldozing strength, and Steph clears them.
@@ursula3438 you gotta take something away from Steph too if you’re taking from everyone else lol
@@yourebreakingmyballs4787 Bill Russell did. No one calls him the GOAT.
Jordan was considered the goat because he was the first to three peat in the modern era , something magic bird or Thomas at the time couldn’t achieve. Then he did it again so it was no longer a question. His multiple scoring titles defensive player of the year retiring as the all time leading ppg record holder and others accolades and awards only added to it.
in the expansion era. These ppl today face teams with both unicorn KD and steph on them. Personally i'd appreciate jordan more if he did exactly what he did in the era just before or just after with the emergence of shaq/kobe and athletic guards like iverson as opposed to..
so much of all this, especially in team sports is circumstance.
Not that big a fan of lebron but his run on the cavs would have likely been some sort of 3 peat had it not been for multiple circumstances.
@@bboiblack1948 Jordan made the entire 90s draft class a believer he’s the goat by dominating . Shaq came in 92 kevin garnet 95 Kobe and iverson 96, Tim Duncan and Tmac 97. They all were in the league and witnessed Jordan win multiple rings back to back to back.
@@bboiblack1948 🤫🤫 people don’t like the expansion era logic. They’ll tell you you’re wrong, even though the evidence is easily available.
Bill Russell.....two handfuls..and forget modern era..because by using.that terminology you are saying until Mike came nothing counted??? Come on..
@@rahkinggreen64 when I say modern era I mean anything after the 79-80 season when the three point line was introduced. I have mad respect tho for the 60s and 70s players. Especially bill and wilt. I’m not one of those people who believe the 60-70 were plumbers. It’s common since they were great look at Kareem drafted in 69 he only won one ring in the 70s but 5 in the 80s. He also has a losing record against wilt laker teams 14-13. From his perspective the 80s was a cake walk
LePrincess needs to jump teams, cry when looses and trade his team to try and win
Curry changed the game the last 3 decades with his offensive, LePrincess changed the game with jumping teams and trading players when looses
Also, people don't realize his team jumping caused KD to go to the Warriors, so there's that too...
Steph haters sound like what Bron fans think Bron haters sound like.
The LeBron debate wasn’t serious until it got serious. He just happened to fall short.
So the Steph debate is not ridiculous. He’s the one that’s next in chasing the legends. He’s the only one left that can outside of Bron.
With that said, Steph’s odds to improve his resume look really good.
Steph not on that level at all
That loss in 2016, makes it pretty tough for Curry to surpass him. Curry also needs more MVPs
@@willseest3732 it’s almost like the lost in ‘15 with Lebron he lost his guys in a crucial series and or game and lost if draymond doesn’t get suspended they would def close it out in 6 but to los him and they win game 5 gave them all the confidence in the world to be like we can do this but no to belittle what Bron did he played the greatest basketball I’ve ever seen 3 games in a row
@@willseest3732 LeBron has more stains on his resume tho. the lost to Mavs is unforgivable I'm sorry. He's been swept in the finals, and this year just failing to make the playoffs with a stacked team.
@@drkdze by using your criteria.... 2016 is the biggest argument against steph even being in the conversation, losing like that "I'm sorry, it's unforgivable"
"They'll find a way to make this an extra ring for Michael" lol
Like Micheal needs any help whatsoever from Curry. It’s as simple as this. The majority people like me who actually saw Michael’s entire career and Lebron and Kobe’s and now Curry will almost always have MJ ahead. If you were too young to appreciate MJ you might pick Kobe. If you are like 25-30yrs old you might pick Lebron. If you are in your 20’s you probably think it is Curry.
He not lying tho bruh. Mj supporters really a cult and it comes off as cringy
@@levels1937 Idky this is even debated. Every ranking poll that ever comes out has jordan number 1 by a staggering amount, by the players, coaches & fans…
@@MR.__G It’s debated along the demographics I showed. In another 10-20 years when the people who are in their 20-30’s now are in higher positions in media they will have Lebron and Curry as #1 and #2 it’s already begun really. Nick Wright is just the first wave. I think he was like 14 when Jordan retired the second time. It’s all good I know what I saw and lived through.
Lebron was close but he squandered some opportunities and got checkmated by GSW when they got Durant. There is no shame in that.
@@levels1937 I started watching in 96 and I think the main reason many of us still put MJ ahead of Bron is aesthetics. MJ was just so smooth in his movements they called him "His Airness" and "Black Cat" for a reason. His style made the NBA global and made Kobe, Tmac, Vince, AI, Dwade, Melo etc. wanna copy him (Kobe the closest obvi). Lebron may be just as good at bball than MJ (or even better if you wanna believe Nick and Shannon) but his game is, and please excuse the disrespect, kinda ugly in comparison.
Simply put who says Tim Duncan is better than Lebron James?
The answer is the minority. We acknowledge team greatness plays into winning championships until we start talking about Michael Jordan which is Nicks point
@UCPItZf7liabSel9cbkiV3Aw Lebron is a bad defender. Stop it. Everybody gets whatever they want vs him. They just hid his flaws. And he can't shoot much either. They got to space the floor and let him drive in an empty lane and kick it out to legendary 3 pt shooters cause he got limitations. They hide him on defense. You never had to worry about that with Duncan. For his position - he had way less flaws.
BUT tIM dUNCAN is better than Bron. That's the point
@@erikpuka2627 bro I honestly feel like you don’t watch basketball, if you wanna say that about his lakers years then yes, but Lebron was a lockdown defender in his time in Cleveland and Miami
@@erikpuka2627 Casual. Not taking away from Duncans defensive impact, he was a PF who anchored the defense. But saying LeBron is a bad defender is laughable. Sure, if you nit pick certain years and talk about him now when he's past his prime with the 2nd most miles on his legs of any player in history. There was a 5-6 year stretch where he was probably the best perimeter defender in basketball, 2009-2013, and even 2014. Finished 2nd in DPOY to Peak Dwight in 2009 and 2nd in 2013 to Marc Gasol (who didn't even make All-Defensive 1st Team, most agree he got robbed). He has a few other Top 5 DPOY finishes as well. You don't do that by not being an ELITE defender. All the film and defensive metrics back it up, he was a monster on that side of the ball. Elite perimeter defender, help defender, team defender, and solid 1 on 1 defender. Guarded 1-5 effectively for a few years, especially in Miami. Locked up elite PGs in the playoffs, D-Rose in the Conference Finals, Tony Parker in the Finals, did a good job on the best forwards in the league, and even managed to do a decent job on certain Centers. Prime for prime, LeBron was amazing defensively. And saying they had to "hide him on defense" is hilarious lmao. They never did that for LeBron, especially in his prime.
@@bigwill9910 data still says he’s a net positive on defense even on The Lakers lol.
Wildes has a point. It’s not about having more rings, BUT Steph would’ve won them “on Lebron’s watch.” Something to think about.
Good point. But I hold the Mavs loss against Lebron. The 3 losses against the Warriors in the finals. Not so much.
Curry finally the best player in a finals series 👏
bron is 37…
@@bb-lq6dm and '14 against the Spurs too.
I mean, when you create one of the top 5 teams to ever grace an NBA court, I think you have to win a couple rings.
There has only been 1 that was really on lebrons watch that he could've done something about, and that's this season.
The first one, kyrie and love were both hurt.
The 2nd and 3rd was one of the most talented teams to ever play on the court together.
I love it when Nick and Chris debate about MJ vs Lebron 😂😂
Antoine barely had Steph top 30 a month ago, so I think he should sit this one out
Hey man maybe with that playoff run and the title and Finals MVP....he MIGHT move him to 29 lmao.

@@cogginbenton so you think the 2x MVP, 1st unanimous MVP, 4x champ, 1x finals MVP, 2x scoring champ, 1x steals leader, centerpiece of a dynasty, and the best shooter ever is closer to 30 than 12? You are out of your mind.

Going down 3-1 in a NBA finals, and then getting one of the opposing teams starter suspended for game 5, and winning the finals by 4 points in game 7 isn’t decimating the team.

Love how the so called analysts always try to prop up Lebron. 2015 "Gsw win cause Kyrie and love hurt". 2016 iggy and bogut out with injury. Steph was still injured. "GSW meltdown". Funny how narratives changed history. We all saw the master of Fopping Leflop. We all saw the phantom fouls called on GS. We all saw Lebron throw Draymond down no fouls. We all saw Cleveland tossing around 100lb steph no fouls. We all saw the bogus suspension.
Wait, we really comparing bogut and iggy being out to kyrie and love being out?
@@jasperegan3625 go look at them finals again bogut was a terrible injury for lebron to win easy cuz no rim protector
The thing about Steph's injury is that while he did get hurt in the first round, he came back and dropped an OT scoring record against Portland and balled out against OKC in the WCF to close them out. He was definitely close to 100%
The league didn’t want the Warriors to be champs.. period.
@@hijodejames A sprained mcl is what kept kris Middleton out of the playoffs so no Steph wasn’t close to 100%

Asking Nick Wrong to show objectivity when discussing Lebron is virtually impossible lol.
If KD didn't join the Warriors Lebron would be sitting at 5 or 6 rings EASILY
Who cares, he still ain’t better bron.
Kobe better than LeBron anyway but Steph can become better than LeBron if he keeps winning and win more than LeBron
Explain to us why Kobe is better than LeBron as a player
@@tigerscott5929 He just has the killer instinct and will to win and more skilled and his game looks better than LeBron and he's more of a leader he just is I can go on and on but that's My opinion and you have yours but both players are great but if you ask me who I rather have on my team I'm picking Kobe everytime
@@timothybrooklyn3496 I don’t agree at all about him being more skilled and having a better looking game. I loved watching Kobe growing up and I have him in my top 5. But it’s just not true that he was more skilled or talented than LeBron. Kobe had the work ethic and the will to win. I’ll agree to that. But to act like LeBron doesn’t have the will to win either is a little off. And to act like LeBron isn’t the better overall player with a game and a skill set that we’ve never seen before and that we’ll likely never see again is ridiculous. The leadership aspect is up for debate but I wouldn’t mind anyone arguing for either person. But if I’m asked to select the better overall player for my team, someone with the more complete package and someone who can literally do anything you ask him to, it’s obviously LeBron. Kobe had scoring on LeBron but that’s really about it as far as game. LeBron is a better rebounder, passer, and he’s more efficient.
@@tigerscott5929 Is his defense better? Is he more reliable in the clutch? I definitely don't believe he's more skilled than Kobe. But I'm not a LeBron hater he's a great player I just don't believe he better than a few players
I stopped listening to AW’s takes ever since he said Steph is only in his top 30
That's high I have him top 100
he's never been anywhere closer to curry's journey, he just does have the same experience and views in terms of success, curry is so out of his league and he can never understand who curry is, how he did it, why he succeed.
@@Kobe8DaGreat24 I have you on my top 10 clown list
Nick is wrong. MJ actually has LeBron beat in nearly every advanced stat. So, the analytics aren't really favoring LeBron.
He was talking about Steph but mj has slightly higher stats against far worst competition not a good argument
@@taheemtownsend1003 I was referring to Nick saying LeBron has the best analytics in history, which includes MJ. And MJ did not do it against weaker competition. I don't know where you got that nonsense from. The East was the best conference during MJ's time, so MJ was going through the gauntlet every year just to make the playoffs and reach the Finals. But advanced stats are focused on the regular season, which is what Nick was referring to. Again MJ has him beat in most advanced stats. But I'd mostly like to know how MJ was playing worse competition in the regular season.
@@taheemtownsend1003 you definitely haven't watched ball past 2010 and it shows
@@sandman1008 lies lol MJ played far weaker competition in the finals than LeBron James. LeBron played KD and the warriors which were the greatest team we had ever seen assembled
@@mxybeyesterdaygrip2568 Notice in my comments, I specifically mentioned the Eastern Conference, and MJ having to go through the gauntlet just to REACH the Finals. I said it that way specifically because I agree in the Finals, LeBron faced tougher competition.
However, that was in large part because MJ would typically face his toughest competition in the East playoffs. Whereas LeBron had an easy ride through the East until reaching the Finals, MJ would have to face stiff competition in the East just to reach the Finals.
I am a firm believer that if LeBron had played in the West his whole career, he would not have made it to 10 Finals. I think he would have made it to 4 or 5 Finals. However, he would be 4-0 or 5-0 in the Finals. We don't have those same questions for MJ. For those 6 full seasons, we know that he would have gone to the Finals 6 times, and won all 6, regardless of what conference he was in.
We actually dont know if you can build a championship team around lebron because its never happened! All he's ever done is put together super teams.
Lmao
U should delete this comment
Yeah because the first 7 years of Lebrons career was wasted on the cavs who failed to put a championship roster around Lebron. Even with that being said he still dragged a bunch of bums to the finals.
The difference is steph won all of his while Lebron was playing at a high level. No one won more while Jordan played

That was a slick upper cut Nick wright through at Chris broussards take at the end of the segment 😂
"Dog doth protest too much, hit dogs holla."" 🤣🤣🤣
It hurts him now not later, this man is winning on LeBron James watch, and he's doing this with lesser talent than LeBron James had. It is impressive on all fronts. Stephen Curry also is a little man in a big man's game and he has out performed his contemporaries. It is allot to consider, and LeBron James ranking shouldn't be that high, when a contemporary has the same amount of rings and is quite likely to succeed him in titles. It must be given high regards and consideration.
So lebrons watch is his whole career? Mjs watch is only the 6 years he won?
You can see it written on all their faces 🥴 that was a mic 🎤 drop ending there by Nick! 😅👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Any statement that starts with "I don't care what he does, he will never be..." is purely driven by a preference instead of objectivity.
nah, is was not a mic drop...it was easy for Nick to say since it is a scenario that is really unlikely to play out, so he does not risk anything...
@@georgeth4421 if it was easy to say then Broussard wouldn't have done the opposite.
That means it’s too late. Steph went wrong asking kd to join and taking a backseat! He was supposed to comeback and take it from bron but it spelled fear begging kd to come tbh
Yea you can tell it's purely driven by preference rather than objectivity. The fact that they're saying (except for Nick) Steph can never move up past mj and lebron regardless of how much he wins shows they just want MJ to be #1 forever and maybe Lebron #2.
Nick towards the end is the only one being objective. If Steph ends with 6 or 7 and LeBron doesn't win any more, I think its only fair to put Steph ahead of LeBron AND if he wins final MVPs the rest of the way, ahead of Jordan too.
This segment was amazing!!! Very funny and entertaining!
Nobody ever brings up the fact that lebron was trying to recruit kd when he went to the warriors. Nobody wants to touch that
If Steph wins 6 rings in the modern NBA where the competition is absolutely insane with so many elite players, yeah he's absolutely in the goat conversation.
No he’s not cause it’s ring culture. lebron has been a far better player for longer w more all nba first teams and more FMVPs and regular season MVPS. Rings aren’t the only thing that matter but stephen a and other media heads have made it seem like that. Steph will never be lebron even tho they both top 10

wait chris really did expose himself saying if steph wins 7 rings he still won't put him ahead of mj. he's only got like 5 years left. if he wins 4 rings in 6 years after he already had 3, he should be the goat lol
He’d certainly be in the top 3 convo with Jordan, Lebron, Kareem for sure lol. That’s unlikely but it’s fun to speculate.
Fmvps,rbds,Defensive teams etc
It's only about rings for mj in a good way .4-6 to descredit LeBron
He got on a plane to get KD. LeBron disqualified for the same reason. He called wade. Competitive spirit matters. He was scared of a healthy cavs team.
If he wins 7 i'd easily put him close or even equal to MJ as the GOAT. But won't happen.
@@thelight3547 Let's not do that because I'm sure had LeBron known that Wade's injuries would keep him in and out of the lineup that may affect the decision to go. We know the Cavaliers front office isn't the best, and there was no Pat Riley or Phil Jackson. Secondly, recruiting to Cleveland is hard..no one wants to live in Cleveland as opposed to some of these other organizations.
Chris been killin' Nick, and Rob ...I mean more than usual lately 😂😂🤣
Stephs doing it in an era where free agency is at its greatest and players are actively teaming up or signing vet minimums to get a ring. Obviously he benefited from it as well, but if he ends up with 5 or even 6 during this era of talent, he deserves to at least have a seat at the table
Mmm yea but Steph ain’t have to play any of those teams this ring
Boston arguably had the harder path and looked gassed at the end HOWEVER! Steph did beat all the young top up and coming talent and teams that will be getting rings and that’s arguably more impressive because the league is so much more than just a top heavy league now
Now he's *arguably* top 10, *definitely* top 15. But if he happens to win one more, he's *definitely* top 10. It's that simple
Nah to be fair you talked down this era on the “teaming up and signing minimums” (which I understand) then brushed pass him benefiting. Literally no one was beating KD steph Klay Draymond in the finals. NO ONE EVER. They were selfless played good enough defense and obviously had lethal weapons 1-5 (wiseman) with that being said you gotta take away the two rings he got with KD. So Steph has two and we will see if he can win 3 more lol

Jordan just has a greater resume than James

Yeah in the 90s lol
Jordan also has better advanced metrics and classic 8 stats as well.
Walker and allot of players like him are hating they are bigger stronger faster and still aren’t half the player Curry is
Preach
The real question they should be debating is we're. Do the warriors rank on the greatest teams of all time
Having a rival match/surpass you in rings doesn't look good in your GOAT case. Michael never allowed his rivals anywhere near his ring count, that's why he's the GOAT. He dominated his competition.
This is my favorite argument, do people realize MJ played 15 seasons in the NBA but only has 6 rings, what do we think happened the other 9 times?
@@jamesadegboye7378 adding to that, its funny the 80 was the better decade, he wasnt doing anything, and 90s, when players openly admitted, and there are written records in newspapers, that it was weak diluted era due to expansion, he started winning then

Steph did it on his own team. LeBron did it on everybody else's team. That's the difference, nobody wants to play for ol' James anymore. The media circus that surrounds him, people want to play with "easy going" Steph. LeBron is about Hollywood, one man show. Steph is about Basketball an team work.
More difficult to win with a variety of player combinations than it is to win with the team you’ve played on your whole life. Chemistry is not guaranteed unless you’re great.

@@rollandcurtis874 I completely agree. I was just stating that in the context of today. MJ is the goat. He is the standard of greatness. He is the true NBA logo over Jerry West.

Nick suffers from recency bias. It’s what he saw, so it’s all he really knows. He wants to say he was there and saw the best ever in real time.
I’m a Steph fan, but they both are great. Do people realize that since 2011, last year was the only year that the Finals didn’t feature LeBron or Steph. Why is Toine Walker dismissing Steph like he’s average. He has No objectivity, because he said no matter what Steph does. No objectivity.

@@Davidm-ou5mo and he definitely right
2021 finals no Lebron or Steph
@@Davidm-ou5mo There'll be such discussion *IF* Steph wins more than Bron. Whether you like it or not.
Steph isnt even close to Lebron. Any kind of argument that tries to insinuate so is absolutely absurd.
If you took out Curry and replaced him with Lebron on the 2021-22 Warriors team, I don't think they end up winning the Championship this year. I think a Lebron lead Warriors team would have lost to the Grizzlies or the Mavericks.
Well I think it's an interesting subject, especially as it was brought up to begin with? I think the conversation is going to be getting started in that trajectory. You can't compare the positions, or the power, though the accomplishments and the way in which they're achieved can definitely be something that can be spoken about. We're talking four rings now in 8 years, and Steph looks great still. Who's going to really completely challenge and knock them off in the west next year? The East is going to be wide open, with everybody healthy, on all the previous teams that played this year as well. Giannis will definitely have something to say with Middleton healthy and anyone else they add during the offseason, etc etc. Miami Heat will surely do something to help out Jimmy as best they can. Philadelphia absolutely has to make a hard move this upcoming season for obvious reasons. It's not going to be a given that Boston will not only be there, take the whole thing as well?
Great take on a very possible future outcome.
Chris just proved everyones point lol If Curry wins 7 rings and 3 to 4 finals MVPs and you still say he isn't better than Jordan or Lebron. That's the type of Bias stuff that irritates people suddenly rings wouldn't matter because He would have more than MJ is what Chris is saying . Chris wants to be apart of Michael Jordans media Entourage so bad lol
For me Bron and curry are at the same level now, if curry wins 5, then he jumps one and the conversation will be who's better Jordan or Curry, if he wins 6 or 7 we're getting into Tom Brady's territory. Which won't happen because of free agency, but funny idea tho.
Chris has never just made the rings argument. Only Skip makes that argument in the major media. It's a combination of things that in my opinion make MJ the GOAT. The winning is just part of the equation. MJ has more MVPS(5-4-in 7 less full seasons played), finals mvps(6-4), titles(6-4), DPOY's(1-0), scoring titles(10-1), steals titles(3-0), PPG, FT%, PPG in playoffs. Lebron is 2nd on my list behind him but he is hurt by a couple things(that awful Mavs series), and his free throw shooting in clutch situations.
@@phillipgoat00 People will still diminish Curry's 2 rings with KD for being a superteam. But for some reason, Brady with arguably the best offensive weapons ever assembled and a top 10 defense gets a pass with that 7th ring. I don't think the difference between 6 and 7 is much when you have players from various sports with more (Russell with 11 nba titles, Richard with 11 stanley cups).
Because he isn't he's always had 4-5 all stars that okay really good D out him on an average team dude never wins anything. He's a great shooter that's it .
@@phillipgoat00 u don’t know basketball lol
This isn’t even a conversation
The issue is Lebron isnt in the convo with MJ or Steph, Magic or Bird as Championship Team Leaders. The problem is Lebron leap frogged a lot of players when he needed 2 allstars to win rings and easy eastern conference and if his finals opposition was a better TEAM he gets excuses. Lebron is a great player. His legacy is durability and longevity NOT being a CHAMPION.
oFc, if Lebron was Steph he would have trade himself away from GSW after that KD and Klay's injury
Not in the conversation?! You just described literally every person who has ever won multiple titles. It baffles me that people say that LBJ needed two other all-stars, but everyone else in history needed at least two other all-stars to do the same thing. You don't win more than one title without consistent all-stars. Ever. And I don't know who you're talking about as far excuses, but LBJ is far and away the most scrutinized player in history.

Exactly! MJ, Pippen, and Rodman are 3 Hall of Famers that played together. Didn't Steph meet with KD after getting smashed by the G.O.A.T.

Man we’ve seen some great players, BIRD, MAGIC, KOBE, SHAQ, CURRY, DUNCAN, KD, ETC, but the fact of the matter is that both MJ and Lebron dominated the sport at a level that none of these other guys can even touch.

@@camdonking1919 if that’s the case then for Mike was a loser 9 out of the 15 seasons he played. If you’re only dominant 40% of the time then are you really dominant? See how stupid that sounds

You Got To Like Nick Wright The Man A Flat Out Genius, I Agree!😅

It Jordan was limited to doing that only with Pippen. Without him Jordan couldn’t make it out of the 2nd round. This is such a fact that though Jordan signed a bunch of one year contracts, to keep,winning he kept resigning with Pippen. WHENEVER Jordan played without Pippen, relative to the finals, Jordan couldn’t even qualify for the Finals much less play in them and win. Lebron on the other hand is not limited in such a way.

And you say steph is the “king slayer”? Bro 3 out of the 4 finals matchups steph had the better team. The only time it was an even matchup was in 2016 and Lebron beat him.
