that won’t happen for a long time. We got lucky that the difference of passing the torch was not too many. Magic to Lebron, MJ to Kobe. But luck eventually runs out. Could be another 50 years until we see another Lebron or Kobe. If l live, then I’ll be in my 80s. I don’t think most of you will reach 60.


Magic to Lebron?

How are you comparing this to luck. Better players will always be coming along. The NBA is like 70 years old it's not going to take 50 years to see the next great superstar.

Trae Young, Luka Doncic or Zion Williamson. Those three seem incredibly special.

I think Trae Young has a chance at top 5 all-time greatness. He's fearless and has that Mamba mentality!

Trae Young records a new career high of 50 points, including 8-of-15 from 3-point range as the Atlanta Hawks beat the Miami Heat, 129-124.

I'll probably bandwagon the Atlanta Hawks for a couple years while the Rockets rebuild post James Harden era in a few years.



Trae Young's ceiling a smaller and worse shooting version of Curry and Curry will never crack the top 5. Curry isn't a good defender but he is much better than Young. Young is just awful on defense and that should be considered as well.

I think people believe that they are the center of the universe. That everything awesome will occur in their lifetime. But that ain’t the truth. For example, the roman empire existed for a thousand years, then we had the middle ages. A period of greatness followed by a period of shit. That can happen again. In boxing, there was the great heavyweight era. And now we have nothing close to that. And in baseball, how long did it take the cubs to win a championship? And how long has it been since Nikola Tesla’s death? There is no scientist in the world that is on that guy’s level. We want to believe that great talent comes often. But it simply doesn’t. And like Diablo 2, you can magic find great stuff for three days, then not find any shit for three weeks. Probability is fucked up. And we get accustomed for having it real good. But that is an illusion.

I see. But the numbers are almost even?

Also if the NBA is so rigged. You're telling me they didn't want LA vs LA in the conference finals? They couldn't have managed to "help" the Clippers not blow one of those huge leads?


No they wanted Nuggets vs Lakers

Buddy ur talking to a Toronto Raptore fan about rigged NBA refs lmfao. What a casual

Why did they want that? Killer ratings?

You are basically proving my point. NBA has only gained its popularity the last 40 years and look how certain things are no longer special the way they were thought to be. There will always be better players coming along. Its not going to take 50 years to find the next great all time player. In the next 10-20 years someone will come along to challenge for a top spot in the greatest of all time

People who are ignorant enough to believe they are literally the center of the universe are stupid so if you feel like a pariah for figuring out what stupid people can't then I got news for you
