Who's the best player in the NBA today?
I agree. You might want to help alphieb out on the word game thread. I don't think she knows who I'm talking about. You probably do.Originally posted by independent_thinker2002:
It seems to shift every year since MJ retired. I would have to say that Kobe is the best right now. I think in a couple years though it very well could be Lebron.

Did you think this before the 81 points.Originally posted by kal-el
Yea I agree here, I think now it is Kobe.

Navy Pride said:Keving Garnett is the best..............Kobe is a ball hog and a gunner.He hs never seen a shot he didn't like and has not even made the play off without Shaq Man..........
The best pure shooter is Ray Allen though...
independent_thinker2002 said:Garnett hasn't gotten the ring. He can't take the team on his back in the playoffs.
J.J. Reddick will be the best pure shooter when he gets to the NBA.

kal-el said:I'm not gonna even argue the fact that Kobe is a ball hog, but while we are on the subject of ball hogs, A.I. takes the cake. But KG the best? That's pure speculation, maybe the big "fundamental" Tim Duncan.
Probably, but I liked Dennis Scott back in the days with the Magic. 3D was always reining three's.:lol:
When did Shaq or KG score 81 points in a game?Originally posted by Che:
no just kidding. But seriously there isn't one best player. I'd give Kobe player of the month but Shaq or Garnett overall best 'cuz game after game season after season both remain dominant.
Navy Pride said:So you agree that Kobe has not seen a shot that he didn't like?
A.I. shots alot but he gets a lot of assists too.......
Duncan gets boards and points and has great players around him unlike Garnett ...
Scott was a good shot but I watch Allen every night and there is no purer of a shooter.................
Never, but that's because neither are gaurds. But scoring 81 points in a game is a one time thing it'll never happen again for him. Shaq and KG however remain constant.Billo_Really said:When did Shaq or KG score 81 points in a game?
Wilt wasn't a guard. He scored 100.Originally posted by Che:

He scored a 100 once. But he averaged 50.1 points a game for the entire season. Jabbar (a center) scored more points than anyone in history. Karl Malone (a forward) is second on the list. Wilt is third. I think Oscar is the only guard in the top ten at 29k.Originally posted by Che:
Yeah but c'mon that was once and you have to agree that guards usually have an easier time scoring.

Lakers are 8-4 when Kobe scores more than 40.Originally posted by Navy Pride:
If you shoot more then the rest of your team together your going to score a lot of points......
kal-el said:Yea, I'll agree with that statement.
What, he gets like 6 or 7 assists a game. I think Kobe gets like 4 or 5.
Hence Duncan has a couple championship rings.
Maybe, I haven't taken much notice to Ray Allen. But the Orlando Magic with Shaq, 3d, Nick Anderson, and Penny Hardaway kicked ass!

Navy Pride said:If there is any game you win as a team its basketball and Kobe is not a team player........Like I said if it wasn't for Shaq he would not even have a title....I watch him come to Seattle all the time and Ray Allen eats his lunch......
