Moving on.......
In a 3 on 3, in their prime, which squad is the best?

Re: Who is the GOAT
It's close between Red and Yellow.
Red has Harden so that's a black hole on defense and he might quit before you even start playing.
If Yellow could swap Kobe for Embiid, that's the one i'd go with.
I know Kobe is a stud on both ends of the court but in terms of team makeup, I want a big that can roam around the basket on defense and get boards and on offense create mismatches.
Steph is the greatest shooter ever in the NBA in his prime -- I want that on my 3 v 3 squad.
Green, even with Larry, doesn't quite make the cut here.

In half court?
Red. Not close.
In full court?
Yellow. Not close.

Re: Who is the GOAT
That said, peak LeBron I think could do a decent job defending Embiid.
Put Kobe on Jordan.
Steph on jerkmyheadbackatanyformofcontact Harden.
Reverse defense to offense?
Steph is scoring 50.

Re: Who is the GOAT
Doesn't Embiid have a winning record against Jokic? Maybe I am mistaken there, but I thought I saw that stat.
He sat out last night too....bringing him dangerously close to not being eligible for MVP and other honors.
I don't think he's "ducking" Jokic in Denver....and if in the past he's used it as a maintenance day it probably has more to do with the altitude than being afraid of Jokic.

Re: Who is the GOAT
JFC. I have a friend who has become a brainwashed cultist about many things. It's actually frightening to me.
Today he came out with this gem. He feels Durant should be ahead of LeBron on the list of best NBA basketball players of all time. I asked him to explain to me why he feels that way. My guess is he comes up with something completely ignorant. So far he has simply said - "it's my opinion".
If I said, "it's my opinion" Incarnate Word is a better historical basketball program than Kansas, does that mean it is and I'm right?

Re: Who is the GOAT
Came up in conversation today.
I have sat right near LeBron, MJ (in KC in 1984), Durant, Kobe, Steph, etc., etc. but this is by far my favorite personally "RECORDED" memory of a top 50 all time NBA player.
He obviously knew I was taking his picture. This was how he chose to pose.

Re: Who is the GOAT
I am confident that he was hoping you would snap a pic
Re: Who is the GOAT
I've never understood the allure of taking photos of celebrities.
WITH celebrities is better but still, man, for me it'd have to be natural, as in somehow I got to know them for a little bit and they asked me, hey, do you want a picture with me, or something along those lines.

Re: Who is the GOAT
Family friend played MJs grove 23 recently for the umteenth time with his friend that is a member....said MJ is just a regular dude....but last time he was there someone tried to take a pic of MJ while he was playing through and almost got thrown off the grounds.
I just look and think "hey there is so and so". I'm not asking for autographs or taking pictures or speaking to strangers. That's silly.

PDub was the GOAT. Or at least the best player in the world. For a season.

Re: Who is the GOAT
LeBron outscored the Clippers in the 4th Quarter.
GOAT or not, the Dude is the GOL25Y and still going strong.
Speaking of good. Is Luka the best player in the NBA today?
