    Anywhere between 4-7. It jumps around too much based on how he plays sometimes. I cant stand the dude because he has the worst dickriders in the world and gets praised even on a 5-40 shooting night, but theres no denyin his offensive ability and ability to hit the big shot is second to only Jordan

    Co-Sign this also, Even Jordan himself says "Its hard for me to say im the best because i never got to play against some of the all-time greats that i looked up to" ..

    So it's tough , but i agree, you almost have to have seen all these dudes play.

    yea but what were basing it off is strictly accomplishments and numbers and based off of that you can get some what of an idea of who should be considered the greats in some sort of hierarchy

    If he can somehow get 2 more rings after this year, you gotta consider him the second GOAT

    Only reason I have him behind Magic is because Magic led a very underwhelming Lakers team to the finals that year they lost to mike and the Bulls I have yet too see bean do that without a top tier team.

    People overreact too much in the present.



    He's still the 3rd best player of this decade behind Shaq and Duncan, and winning another ring(only his 2nd as the #1) wont change that. It will only narrow the gap.

    Overreact i been saying this for years on series.. on playoff run is just addition to years of what he has done..

    If its any overreaction its to what these younger players have done. being in the league 6 -7 years.. comparing them to a player with a resume.. and videotape here.. to zamunda.. ? speaks for itself
