Zogo posted:I'm specifically wondering if Giannis would have another gigantic series and be unstoppable again. He's only 27 and coming into his true prime the next few years. I'm skeptical anyone can stop him if he reverts back to his playoff mode from last year. Suns will likely demolish the west and run into the same roadblock as last year which is Giannis. Giannis with his newfound jumper efficiency and his pretty decent 3 point shooting makes him pretty much unstoppable. Suns don't have enough bodies on their roster to throw at him and Jrue and Middleton can keep up with CP3 booker enough for Giannis to make the ultimate difference... If he turns into Shaquille O'Antetokounmpo like he did last year idk how any team beats a full-strength bucks squad tbh

That being said, the all-time great at getting teammates undeserved accolades has got to be Bill Russell. The 1962 Celtics had almost their entire rotation get into the hall of fame. Cp3 not even top 5 in that discussion lo E: hell hes not even top 10 lmao Metapod fucked around with this message at 15:19 on Mar 31, 2022 |

Metapod posted:Lmfao at giving cp3 credit for the succes of Blake Griffin, James Harden, and that okc season CP3 absolutely deserves credit for getting that OKC team that looked like a .500ish team to a 50-win pace and a fiesty first round loss, but that doesn't make him better than Shaq, Duncan, KG, Kawhi or Giannis

It's a weirdly unique situation is the point I'm making. Nash is probably the closest comp I can think of. But whatever I'll take the apparent L and shut the gently caress up about it

If that true, point guards are pretty worthless when it comes to winning. You generally can’t even crack the top 5 at any other position without a title and MVP or defensive player of the year.

I have created a computer model for top NBA point guards that measures: 1. If Rose never got hurt 2. If Rose got hurt but then was Fully Back 3. If Rose was given robotic Cyber-Legs that would allow him to dunk even higher and theoretically play defense 4. If Rose was fully robotic and had a grappling hook that was legal for all referees except Jeff Foster 5. If Rose was allowed to ride a dinosaur onto the court 6. If Kirk Hinrich had every bone in his body replaced with a robotic endoskeleton and also we invented an illegal performance enhancing compression sleeve that would eventually be banned after it made him so athletic that he accidentally decapitated baron davis on a hard foul to prevent a layup.

I legit was just curious to see the debate play out. No doubt the guy is a beast, but hell if I'll even pretend to have a storied history of PGs in basketball.
