ESPN Ranks Lebron as the best #1 pick ever. Do you agree?

[Jplaya2023]

for me i'll have to say no.

#NBArank's best No. 1 overall picks: LeBron, Kareem or Duncan?

I have to go with Cap #1 then, shaq, then dream, then magic, and then bron

 

[Dayco23]

It's obviously Anthony Bennett

 

[fifth column]

Can't be dream when the goat was #3

 

[He Who Posts Well]

Wade is the best number 5 pick ever.

 

[Tim2520]

Let's not overthink this it's clearly LeBron or Kareem

 

[Regular_P]

What the fukk is this "championships added" metric? Is there no end to these made up numbers?

 

[Newzz]

It's clearly LeBron.


LeBron did more in Cleveland than any other #1 pick has done for the team that choose them #1 overall.

 

[William F. Russell]

Bill Russell is the GOAT #2 draft pick

 

[AlbertPullhoez]

It's Timmy

5 rings all with the squad that drafted him

The growing consensus seems to be that he's 2nd all time behind Jordan. Based off that logic, that'd make him the best no.1 pick of all time. Now whether or not you agree with that is entirely on you, I'm just talking about the growing consensus.

You're changing the criteria of this discussion.

The question is "who's the GOAT #1 draft pick?"

Kareem, Magic, Shaq, Kareem, and Hakeem all beat LeBron soundly.

shyt, I forgot about Duncan.

 

[Remote]

I'll vote Cap since I think he's the greatest basketball player of all time. Ahead of Jordan.

But you can't go wrong with Lebron.

 

[William F. Russell]

And, FYI, Bron is NOT a top 5 GOAT player.
