i don’t think it’s ignoring data as much as it is prioritizing different aspects or stats
When people point out Jordan's "failures" in his first 7 years I feel like asking if Jordan was a better player his first 7 playoff years or his last 7 playoff years. I figure most people would say/assume the 2nd 7.
Are they right?

Re: Who is the GOAT
I'm not understanding the question. Are you asking how I feel about his first 8 or 9 playoff years vs his last 8 or 9? I'm not too sure because I am not as familiar with his playoff history but my uneducated guess is he was probably pretty close to being even.

What percentage of the tickets that were purchased were purchased by people with the intent to re-sell them? I am guesstimating at least 30%. I could be (and probably am?) way off.

Re: Who is the GOAT
Not too sure we can say definitively that the GOAT Basketball player was an NBA player.
What I think everyone can agree on is that Wemby isn't the GOAT. Yet.

Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

A KID who had a horse crap shooting night. Made two more FG in 27 minutes than I did.Back2Lawrence wrote: ↑Sat Jul 08, 2023 6:09 amYeah, he’s not in the GOAT conversation yet. He’s just a KID
2-13 fg 1-6 3pt
Granted, he did have 8 boards and 5 rejections.

Also, MJ is the GOAT. LeBron probably two. Lots of others close. And Kobe, at best, fucked women in the ass without consent.

Yesterday, as a shooter, he sucked as a member of the NBA.

Later today and after today, he may be fantastic member of the NBA. GOAT level fantastic.
P.S. If Wembey would have turned around he could have told us how Kai Jones nuts taste.
P.S.S. He proved he can't make shots wearing Spurs gear while UNguarded.
P.S.S.S He can/will defend tall players but expect to see a lot of this early in his career.

Haha. You dunked on my better than a Portillo’s sandwich ordered the right way. Speaking of which, it’s my turn to buy.
Re: Who is the GOAT
A volume shooter loving a volume shooter, no surprise.
Kobe and AI were great competitors and supremely gifted athletes who were both fun to watch but I put Kobe in Tier 2 of the GOAT debate.
