Maybe. You need to remember J-Kidd, Magic, I.T. But certainly top 5. I think Magic is still the best.
i don't know how to link the chart but if there was a way to combine lowry and brooks charts we would have a bad ass point guard.
No doubt Magic is hands down the best overall. (Not even close imo) Second best player of all time I believe. You "could" make an argument that Nash is a better offensive player though. (Let us not get into that argument)
Aaron Brooks can shoot but he can't finish around the rim and doesn't really have vision...makes panicky decisions with the ball...given his current abilities he should really be a scoring guard off the bench not the starting PG. The one praise I will heap on him is that he's a very good shooter in the clutch and I think if anyone were to be chucking up long prayers down the stretch, it should be AB not Artest.
Yep. I also think Oscar Robertson is VERY underrated. He was LITERALLY a walking T.D. Love nash's game though.
I didn't see him play much but he's one of my favorite players of all-time. I've read a lot of stories about him and heard anecdotal evidence. He was stuck in a bad organization until late in his career so he didn't win as many awards and championships as he might have under different circumstances. The Royals were a joke.
I dont even understand why fanz here call him a good shooter or scorer. Are you guys smoking something?
They were. I didn't see him play at all but from the highlight and stories. I'd say he was the most versatile player ever, even better than MJ, Kobe and magic. He did win a championship with the bucks in the 70-71 season It's too bad ity wasn't celebrated because of the racist issues. Oscar Robertson and Abdul Jabbar should be considered one of the best duo's to ever play the game.
O was in the twilight of his career when he won with Kareem but he was still crucial to their success. The racism back then was a major issue, even within the league, including front offices.
He's a very humble guy too. All the suffering he had to through during that period and he's a class act.
Absolutely. In addition to the praise O got for his basketball abilities, everybody he ever came across talked about his humility and good nature. It's even more impressive that he was like that considering the nature of his environment.
He's a good shooter the only problem is he thinks too much on some of his shots and gets a conscious. Great shooters have short memory his is too long.
bcuz he is fighting with his incstincts. he is a sg turned pg we all know that, he is trying to do the right thing in this system and it is hurting him i think. sometimes when he shoots you know its going in and most of the time it does ( when he does not hesitate and just playes ). remember against nash and the suns when he was going back at nash. he didnt see any other rocket uniform outthere he just played 1 on 5 and he won the game for us we need that brooks in the playoffs
I just want him to attack more, screw waiting on the rest of the team, play your game and force them to catch up. DD
