NBA Draft Lottery Convo

Pat Riley called out Kareem in front on the team before game two of the 1985 NBA Finals after the Lakers lost to the Celtics 148-114 in game one. The Lakers went on to win the series 4-2. Kareem was the oldest Finals MVP at 38.

They said similar on the BS pod from last night.

That's why Kareem is the greatest basketball ever.

Must be a pretty poorly kept secret the Heat like Swain lol

 but, that’s be fantastic for Swain and Texas to end up a lotto pick

James Worthy is the only player who played against Larry Bird and was more efficient. That was the 1985 and 1987 NBA Finals. That's why he's known as "Big Game" James.

You beat me to it @jkates lol

Only draft classes better than this year are 1996 (Kobe, 13), 2003 (LeBron, 1) and 1984 (Jordan,, 3). The fact that Kobe and Jordan didn't go 1 tells you how stupid NBA execs are.

AI says Kobe at 13 is the greatest draft pick ever. Yes, Jerry West trading Vlade Divac to the Charlotte Hornets for the 13th pick to draft Kobe Bryant in 1996 is widely considered the greatest draft-day trade/pick in NBA history.

Kobe straight out of high school better than any player ever from the Big East, SEC, or Big 12. That leaves Kareem (PAC 8), Jordan (ACC) and Magic (Big 10).

[harveycmd]

Given that Kobe is universally recognized as the best basketball player in the world every year from June 2000- June 2010, he should have won MVP 2001-2010.

Who would you pick over Kobe, CJ?

[harveycmd]

No one in their right mind thinks Duncan, Nash, Rose or Nowitzki or Iverson was ever better than Kobe.
