he leapfrogged every nba player then ... its steph then goatbe.
How when Curry leapfrogged that nikka on the all time list after his unanimous mvp year?
Counting high school on up through college and NBA, Kareem has gotta be the GOAT no question imo. Came through and accomplished damn near everything you can accomplish. Was the best center in an era with (older) Wilt Chamberlain, Nate Thurmond, Bob Lanier, Bill Walton, Moses Malone, Dave Cowens, and then STILL gave younger Hakeem and Patrick Ewing that work a decade later. I think while Magic (and then Worthy to an extent) brought the dynamic element a Kareem-based team needed, it can still be argued that Magic didn't truly take over and run the Showtime Lakers as we know Showtime to be until 1986-87. Meaning they still looked to Kareem first if they needed a bucket, outlet pass, board, or block until basically the end. Has his flaws but damn if the other guys in his stratosphere as NBA players don't too. Good thread.
Jordan for me but Kareem is solidly in second place and wont argue at all with anyone who puts him in above Mike. Drastically underrated when they talk about the Goa's but the man was putting up 20 a night for nearly two decades playing against the likes of Wilt and Hakeem and dominating or holding his own against them all. His beliefs are why he doesn't get his props but CAP could easily be considered the Goat.

Nike told you old heads Jordan was better though and y'all ran with it.

8 or 24 best player of the era
This might be the greatest thread of all time
Ain’t you the one who always shyts on Curry for being outplayed in the Finals/not winning any FMVPs?? But y’all callin some fraud who was the best player in only 1 of the 7+ Finals series he was in GOAT??
Old man played in an era so weak before Magic came and saved his ass he won one of those MVPs with a 40-42 record as he “led” the Lakers straight to the lotteryCalling this guy GOAT but he couldn’t even make the playoffs for 2 different seasons in his PRIME years from 75-79; and only managed a “GOAT” 1-2 record in playoffs series that he did manage to crawl into during that time. Then Magic got drafted, carried his ass to a ring winning FMVP his rookie year, all while feeding Kareem to his career high FG% for a season and 4 more rings after that.
KAJ ain’t even the best CENTER of all-time, don’t disrespect real GOATs putting him anyhwere near #1, shyt is insulting
