Greatest Player

[Shortodie]

I want everyone to say who the greatest player in NBA history is?

[Shortodie]

Michael Jordan

[[lob]-Shy]

you're a fucking idiot this belongs in nba talk......idiot

[Shortodie]

i know but no one gos there much

[[lob]-Shy]

true, but still put it there, and my vote is chamberlain - scored more, rebounded more, and won more

[Shortodie]

but mj he is a 13 time allstar is considered one of the greatest players in history if he had the ability to come back he would and cham is know only for scoring in a game

i know but no one gos there much

Well just cuz nobody goes there doesnt mean this isn't supposed to be there. You don't post "The Pope Died" in the NBA Live 05 announcements section just because only a few people go in general talk.

wilt is known for playing shut down d and unstoppable scoring ability and 20,000 women....now thats impressive

[Shortodie]

jordan has scored the most points in the playoffs and led the bulls to 6 championships

[[lob]-Shy]

true

[Shortodie]

yup tats impressive

[[lob]-Shy]

but...Wilt Chamberlain was the only NBA player to score 4,000 points in a season. He set NBA single-game records for most points (100), most consecutive field goals (18) and most rebounds (55). Perhaps his most mind-boggling stat was the 50.4 points per game he averaged during the 1961-62 season--and if not that, then perhaps the 48.5 minutes per game he averaged that same year. He led the NBA in scoring seven years in a row. He was the league's top rebounder in 11 of his 14 seasons. And as if to prove that he was not a selfish player, he had the NBA's highest assist total in 1967-68. Most games with 50+ points, 118; Most consecutive games with 40+ points, 14; Most consecutive games with 30+ points: 65; Most consecutive games with 20+ points: 126; Highest rookie scoring average: 37.6 ppg; Highest field goal percentage in a season: .727. And with many of these, the player in second place is far behind. His name appears so often in the scoring record books that his name could be the default response any time a question arises concerning a scoring record in the NBA.

true but all his known for is records and mj was not only known for his records but he was popular throw out usa and he led team usa to victory in olympics

Ron Mercer

92 and 96 olympics could of easily been won without jordan on the team, and thats a well-known and obvious fact, the only thing jordan has is entertainment value in era of flash and color, but domination of stats still win in my book

[Shortodie]

true mercer isn't known for anything

[[lob]-Shy]

Ron Mercer

mercer isnt even more talented than some high school players

[Fitzy]

[Shortodie]

[[lob]-Shy]

[J@3]

You've started 4 topics... 3 of which were in the wrong section, and one of them I'm not even sure wtf was going on there. Post things in the right places, and yes, people DO go to NBA Talk... probably moreso than 2005 General Issues.

[Shortodie]
