@@KSmanderes no it’s not it’s mad lame he don’t even debate he just hates lol….he a have a decent take every once in a while dude be in his feelings we all can see it !
The Beal vs AR take and Westbrook under lebron vs joker leadership were good takes, Brandon just too emotional to make his point clear. Definitely needed mccants today
@ that wasn’t the point.. lol the point was the how he handled the Westbrook situation. They had people calling Westbrook westbrick he a bum washed etc. he go to Denver playing amazing.
@ points to leadership as well. Which is the whole point of the subject 🤣🤣 jokic is putting faith in him give him room to play to his strengths giving him encouragement. LeBron made him a spot up shooter.. when the media put the blame on Westbrook bron didn’t jump to his aid.. and it was brons idea to get Westbrook. He didn’t fight for them not to trade him. Same as he does every player that’s been traded .. dlo,lonzo I can go on. Who has bron made better through his leadership?? Klove got worse bosh got worse Westbrook list goes on
So according to Gil a player’s value doesn’t change because of bad conduct on the players part but the value to the team during trade talks if greatly affected? Gil be just talking just to talk
Ok so i have a question, does gil pay lexie the same mccants get paid? She literally just sits there and get free money off them. She didnt actually start talking until Josiah ended the show.
I watched Shaq be dominant. I never watched Kareem. But this prime Jokic is more potent offensively than Shaq. I know different eras and Jokic has been dominating for 4 years yet he is more dominant this year wtf
This show is losing steam, I don't think Gil understands you need someone on the show at all times who has a different point of view (McCants might not be a great at debate but at least he throws out things that stir up the Arena) when it's K-Mart, BJ and Lexie the shows ARE REALLY DULL AND DON'T POP! Too much agreeing with Gil just to stay on his good side and keep the checks rolling in!
Just cause someone doesn’t have an opposing argument doesn’t mean they’re trying to stay on his good side……. That weird ass logic is what mccants use, “any opinion other than mine is hating” like grow up
I see you are a contrarian. You must be fun🤧 this is just your opinion you, you speaking on an efficient, a matter of fact.. just because someone doesn’t have an opposing argument. I’ll mean the show is dull. If you actually use common sense maybe that might imply everyone is making sense instead of someone just talking out they ssa for views🤷🏾♂️💯
@ and AI is unbiased. We all watch the game and have our preferences but that doesn’t matter when it comes to comparing players. You need to consider fact only fact and those fact are stats, and accomplishments, your emotions don’t matter.
@@AJKTSK fun fact, baseball the only sport that can be completely explained by a stat and record book game by game.. other sports are so dynamic with so many different factors because it’s a team sport of constantly moving variables depending on one another, there is no way to summarize the whole event by numbers. The end.
Man can we agree that at the end of the day all sports is about winning, being great and dominating ? So stats matter that’s why we have records and we applauds players when they break numbers so that matters. So yes there is many factors in the game but to know who is the greatest you go stats, accomplishments. If you have other criteria to consider plz do share
TOP 30 ALL TIME: 1. Michael Jordan - AIR. Black Cat. The greatest player and the greatest career in NBA history. Most dominant offensive force and one of the games best defenders. A literal, overpowered video game character. 6x Champ 6x FMVP 5x MVP 1x DPOY 2. Bill Russell - BILLY. Russell is the greatest winner and greatest defensive force in NBA and sports history. A legend on/off court. The key to NBA first dynasty. 11x Champ 5x FMVP 5x MVP 3. Magic Johnson - the great PG ever (so far…). REVOLUTIONIZED his position and saved the NBA. He has the highest assist avg. all time and went to the Finals 7/12 seasons between his rookie season and first retirement. Remarkable. Magical. 5x Champ 3x FMVP 3x MVP 4. LeBron James - the greatest longevity in sports history. One of the most dominant forces ever and top5 all round player. ALLTIME points leader and the only player to keep up this quality of play this late into a HOF/Mt Rushmore career. Still.. counting. 4x Champ 4x FMVP 4x MVP 5. Tim Duncan - best PF ever. One of the most fundamentally sound players ever. Played both ends at the highest level for 15 seasons. BIG Fundamental 5x Champ 3x FMVP 2x MVP 6. Kareem Abdul Jabar - owner of the most dominant go-to move on offense. The HOOK. The previous scoring leader and lead all points for 4 decades. The greatest BASKETBALL career ever. Prep to Pro. 6x Champ 2x FMVP 6x MVP 7. Kobe Bryant - see number 1 and dilute the athleticism and physical intangibles and that’s what you got. Arguably the greatest warrior in NBA history. Bean lead LA to 7 titles in his 20 year career and took 5. A gladiator, general, philosopher and true sage of the game … forever missed. 24everMamba. 5x Champ 2x FMVP 1x MVP 8. Shaquille O’Neal - the most dominant ever. The immovable object/unstoppable force. Shaq was the definition of dominance. Should’ve been the goat. Nobody was in better position to take the crown of GOAT from MJ since Shaq in 04’. Yes. NOT Kobe, NOT LBJ. DIESEL. 4x Champ 3x FMVP 1x MVP 9. Larry Bird - maybe the most legendary on the list. Precursor to Jokic but better. One of the most skilled & clutch players ever. In any sport. LARRY LEGEND. 3x Champ 2x FMVP 3x MVP 10. Hakeem Olajuwon - back to back. The best of the mid90’s and second best player in the era. Hakeem is like Russell but with AllNBA offensive ability. 2x Champ 2x FMVP 1x MVP 2x DPOY 11. Wilt Chamberlain - the games most prolific scorers. Arguably it’s greatest defender as well. The man could do it all. Even lead the league in assist at 7”2. Wilt IS unparalleled. GOAT athlete. 2x Champ 2x FMVP 4x MVP 12. Steph Curry - the games most prolific shooter and one of its greatest scorers. The only unanimous MVP and the first ever. The catalyst for the current style of NBA basketball. REVOLUTIONIZED the game forever. STILL GOING. Splash Bro. 4x Champ 1x FMVP 2x MVP 13. Isaiah Thomas - ZEKE. CP3 before CP3 but nastier and meaner. A warrior and one of the games greatest strategist and generals. Quietly a top5 passer. 2x Champ 2x FMVP 14. Oscar Robertson - the greatest all around basketball player ever. Could do everything at a AllNBA level. Changed the way players were interpreted and influenced generations. 1x Champ 2x MVP 15. Kevin Durant - the Slim Reaper is likely the most ideal offensive weapon ever. Can hit from anywhere, anytime over anyone. Hard to beat and impossible to match that level of offensive dominance. 2x Champ 2x FMVP 1x MVP 16. Julius Erving - The good Dr., the FIRST MJ (before Magic & Jordan), The icon and face of BOTH leagues that saved the game in the 70’s. Kareem was the best but Doc was a close 2nd. Underrated statistical brilliance. Was like a 6’7-6’8 Giannis but with a better jump shot. 3x Champ (1 NBA) 2x FMVP 4x MVP (1 NBA) 17.. Moses Malone - CHAIRMAN OF DA BOARDS. Arguably the best board getter… ever. Only Wilt, Russell, Rodman and Thurmond belong in the same discussion. Moses lead his people to the promise land more than once but was able to claim immortality in the early 80’s. His team lead by the dynamic duo of he and Doc dominated the league. Before Lakers v. Celtics it was 76ers v. Celtics-Lakers. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 3xMVP 18. John Havlicek - the GREAT one. MJ is 6-0. Ole Johnny is 8-0. The offensive force off the bench or starting that lead the dynastic Celtics to all 8. Early in his career he was akin to Jordan Poole role on Warriors 22’ team but better at everything but the 3 ball. Then in the late 60’s-70’s he sat in captains seat. His career is a unique mix. Played like Pippen with elite perimeter shooting/scoring, early career was early Kobe-esque, late career MJ/Kobe-esque. John’s game rose in the playoffs. 8x Champ 1x FMVP (likely 4x) 19. Giannis Antetokounmpo - it’s getting freaky… GreekMan is literally on the ride to potentially threatening Tim’s best PF title. If he can add a couple more rings to his already HOF profile he will likely be the new PF or TOP 5 player. Yea. THAT GOOD. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 2x MVP 1x DPOY 20. Jerry West - The LOGO. Steph Curry before Steph. The man that built the LA franchise along Baylor post Mikan era. Jerry West was the blueprint skill base for players like Kobe, MJ, TMac, etc At 6’2-6’3 he torched his opponents his entire career and dropped plenty of dimes. The ORIGINAL combo guard. So damn great he LOST and still won FMVP… case closed. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 21. Nikola Jokic - the Joker is no damn joke. Genuinely a candidate for potential GOAT if his career pans out in the extreme positive like that of the top 10. Jokic is in a unique place being the greatest passing big statically NBA history (excluding Magic). If Jokic finds a way to fit more jewelry in his fingers, we might have to have a real discussion about that greatest Center of all time discussion. Yes. Potentially a top 5 player alert. 1x MVP 1x FMVP 3x MVP (should’ve been 3 consecutive but you know 22. Rick Barry - The ACTUAL “White Mamba”. Just predated the black one… Barry was the answer up until 85’ when you asked who the best SF ever. His game was similar to West but 6’7 and a better FT%. Controversial, cerebral and iconic. Had so much game he had to share what was left with his sons… 1x Champ 1x FMVP 23. Kevin Garnett - The Big Ticket. The 00’ Giannis. In every way but he had a better jumper midrange and beyond. KG was a monstrosity on OFF/DEF in his prime much like his modern comparison. Led the TWolves to relevance and led the 08’ Celtics to a chip. Truly the BIG TICKET. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 1x MVP 24. Dirk Nowitzki - DIGGLER. The one and only. The German Bird. THE Maverick. Dirk is one of the most beloved, iconic and acclaimed players ever. The 00’s stretch big supreme. Dirk was able to take the Mavs to immortality over 11’ Heat in arguably the most surprising run ever. Only Dirk. Forever the DIGGLER. Arguably, the GOAT Euro player. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 1x MVP 25. Bob Pettit - Big Blue was the first stretch 4 in the games history. That’s for starters. Pettit was a tenacious rebounder and highly skilled scorer. He was much akin to K. Love of his era but in better shape and played defense. Think a smaller Dirk who grabbed boards like Love but in the 50’s-60’s era. Not only that, much like Dirk, Pettit lead a historic upset over Russell’s Celtics. A true champ. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 2x MVP 26. Dwayne Wade - The Flash. Wade County. The greatest Heat in NBA history. Wade is arguably the best defensive player at his position and easily too3 (MJ, Kobe). Led the Heat to a title in 06’ in historic fashion against Dirks Mavs. Then winning a couple more as LBJ’s Pippen. His career was like Kobe’s… in reverse. Wade’s early injuries reduced his maximum career output but yet here he is… says a ton. 3x Champ 1x FMVP 27. Elgin Baylor - The PROTOTYPE. Before West, Julius, Thompson, Wilkins, MJ, Hardaway, Kobe, Carter, TMac, Wade, Ant etc There was Elgin Baylor. The first Air, the first Mamba, the first Half Man/Amazing, Flash etc Baylor spearheaded an era that hardly wanted his talents there but had no other choice but to be in awe of it. Think Harden, in shape but not as good of a playmaker, twice the rebounder and a better defender. That’s Elgin. *left a season before historic LAL title win 28. David Robinson - The Admiral. The USA’s biggest weapon in the 90’s was also one of the greatest ever. Made the spurs relevant pre-Duncan and post. Has some of the greatest seasons statistically. Think Giannis but 7’2 with a lefty and 15 footer plus an even better defender. 2x Champ 1x MVP 29. Karl Malone - the Mailman was LBJ minus the handles and vision. King of the pick n roll. 1x MVP 30. Charles Barkley - The Round Mound of Rebound was the Tasmanian devil in a basketball jersey. Prime 25 5 13 guy. Impact everywhere he went. OG DREAMTEAM member by the way… 1x MVP 30 (?) Clyde Drexler - The Glide. One of the most useful all around talents in nba history. One of the greatest two way players ever. Helped every squad he went to become a contender. 1x Champ * HONORABLE MENTION: McHale, Nash, Harden, Parker, CP3, Stockton, Walton, Payton, Westbrook, Drexler, Ewing, Sam Jones, Cousy, Pierce, Iverson, McAdoo, Frazier, Unsled, Reed, Webber, English, A. Davis ^GIVE HONEST FEEDBACK CRITIQUE ATTEMPTING A PERFECT TOP30
K mart not falling for the asstin reaves bait, I’m not letting an undrafted, unathletic fraud run my team before a legit starting guard in Beal. Team gone have 7 wins and be bummy as hell reaves will NEVER average 30.
We don’t know what Beal can do at this point in his career either.. he averaging same as reaves and he’s always injured. So at this point in life I’m taking reaves
Brandon shouldn’t be able to debate on here until he get out his emotions 😂
Agreed
And I don’t get where the energy comes from
Literally bro be in his feelings like a mf !
It's good for viewership and engagement. He should keep bringing the bizarre takes & arguments
@@KSmanderes no it’s not it’s mad lame he don’t even debate he just hates lol….he a have a decent take every once in a while dude be in his feelings we all can see it !
Mr B cooked em with that austin reaves take lol, i wont lie...
Reaves better all time and now
Keep going I like everything bout the show be waiting for it never dull for me
Brandon listens to Carl Thomas to get ready for the show
Emotional Remix is 🔥
😂😂 u a fool
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 boy
Candle lit tub 😂😂😂
Brandon Whitlock
Love the show always gone be mixed reviews keep it goin !
Josiah -“is he wearing a headband or not “ 😭😭😭😭
Naw but either Nick or mccants gotta be on the show! Just ain’t the same.
He’s averaging more
“buT PEcEnTagE iS 3% hIgHeR 🥴”
If you go with stats, go with who avg more. Gil will do anything to try and win a losing argument
“My” top 10 has the top 2 players at every position and Joker hasn’t surpassed Kareem and Shaq…YET
Brandon talm bout “cuz i said so” man if yu don’t sit your ringless ass down
I was 13mins left from catching it live 🥲🍿 I’m here tho
Congratulations to Lexie on the new podcast 🏆
“Bradley Beal ain’t Bradley Beal right now..” 😂
Can we have a top 10 all time ranking nba
The Beal vs AR take and Westbrook under lebron vs joker leadership were good takes, Brandon just too emotional to make his point clear. Definitely needed mccants today
Lebron better leading and also handling a team
@ that wasn’t the point.. lol the point was the how he handled the Westbrook situation. They had people calling Westbrook westbrick he a bum washed etc. he go to Denver playing amazing.
@@theronhugginscause if u play like trash will call u trash
@ points to leadership as well. Which is the whole point of the subject 🤣🤣 jokic is putting faith in him give him room to play to his strengths giving him encouragement. LeBron made him a spot up shooter.. when the media put the blame on Westbrook bron didn’t jump to his aid.. and it was brons idea to get Westbrook. He didn’t fight for them not to trade him. Same as he does every player that’s been traded .. dlo,lonzo I can go on. Who has bron made better through his leadership?? Klove got worse bosh got worse Westbrook list goes on
@@theronhuggins no russ is not a good descion maker and shooter
So according to Gil a player’s value doesn’t change because of bad conduct on the players part but the value to the team during trade talks if greatly affected? Gil be just talking just to talk
Congratulations Lexi!!! 🎉🎉🎉🫶🏾🫶🏾☺️🥂🍾
Lexie 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lexie looking good omm ! 😍
U a simpleton
You se how Kenyon eyed her ?
Rashad Nick or both have to be on every show.
is it me or every 5 or so seconds the audios goes out n comes back?
Gotta give Lex credit she’s been cooking with a lot of her takes and pivot questions
B Jennings is the softest debater in Gils Arena history
Y they dont bring up westbrook being on the clippers? It wasnt lakers then nuggets
This show got the most diabolical player haters on RUclips smh
Who?
Ok so i have a question, does gil pay lexie the same mccants get paid? She literally just sits there and get free money off them. She didnt actually start talking until Josiah ended the show.
Why do you care? it’s not your money
Doubt it
Shut yo hating az up!!😂
She there for looks niggas be thirsty in the livestream comments
And every dude simps and drools over her the whole time In the live chat. They acting like she is a 10/10. She is a 6/10.
34:20 Brandon not being able to comprehend is very interesting😂. Slow down on the weed bro, I’m serious. Much love ✊🏽
What’s bol bol doing off the court that’s so wild?
They let Gilbert say anything
I’m glad they didn’t bring Sheryl swoops back
Oh we back 🤣🤣🤣
The players would say wemby is dpoy lmao not even a mention of wemby
Once u keep dissing the Mamba the show starts to be trash 😂love that karma
😅 So they don't know that these apps start to kick off and ban people who win to much, or they really don't know why they be adjusting they pick?
The thing is wemby chases pin downs too lol
I watched Shaq be dominant. I never watched Kareem. But this prime Jokic is more potent offensively than Shaq. I know different eras and Jokic has been dominating for 4 years yet he is more dominant this year wtf
This show is losing steam, I don't think Gil understands you need someone on the show at all times who has a different point of view (McCants might not be a great at debate but at least he throws out things that stir up the Arena) when it's K-Mart, BJ and Lexie the shows ARE REALLY DULL AND DON'T POP! Too much agreeing with Gil just to stay on his good side and keep the checks rolling in!
Just cause someone doesn’t have an opposing argument doesn’t mean they’re trying to stay on his good side……. That weird ass logic is what mccants use, “any opinion other than mine is hating” like grow up
Not losing steam to me that’s your opinion not speaking for me at all
they have almost a million subscribers and like every show they have boring moments. i still watch🤷🏾♂️speak for yourself
I see you are a contrarian. You must be fun🤧 this is just your opinion you, you speaking on an efficient, a matter of fact.. just because someone doesn’t have an opposing argument. I’ll mean the show is dull. If you actually use common sense maybe that might imply everyone is making sense instead of someone just talking out they ssa for views🤷🏾♂️💯
lol bruh you hatin 😂😂😂😂 bihh pickin up steam
I honestly skip every Show with Kenyon Martin his energy be off frfr . 💯
beal can move tf around he can be a number 1 option rn not 5 years ago and they both would still average the same
Exactly. Stats show one avg more but he wants to mention percentage that’s 4% off
14:42 somebody explain if Jimmy wants to leave why opt into the 52 if he can get 52 or more per year on a whole new contract
why not opt out be a free agent and pick your team so the team doest have to give up assets to acquire you
No one giving him that
Maybe not yet in top 10 but Jokic is in top 15
I take SGA over Trae. Once SGA gets stronger and starts averaging more assists it’s gonna b over
24:36 BRANDON. HOW DF JIMMY DO ALOT FOR THE HEAT BUT JAYSON TATUM HAS DONE NOTHING FOR THE CELTICS? WTF HAS HE DONE
Ngl I could’ve sworn jayson was a superstar and Brandon was, what.. never was?.. lol
C'mon man 🤦🏽♂️
You know damn well Brandon was an Almost-Star when he played
@@KSmanderesall star is mid, all nba is elite
@Valorant_Dem0n97 I said ALLMOST-star
As in, it didn't happen
Naw he not better than Shaq or Wilt , or Kobe
As soon as Gil said “ ethnic color “ and then you hear an aweeee shhhh 🤣🤣
Florida Evens one set me up 2:31:52
59:57 mf got fired 😂😭
I asked ChatGPT his top 75 according to personal and team accomplishments and stats.
And Kobe is 9 on the list and Jordan is first.
AI doesn’t watch ball nerd, certainly never played…
@ and AI is unbiased. We all watch the game and have our preferences but that doesn’t matter when it comes to comparing players. You need to consider fact only fact and those fact are stats, and accomplishments, your emotions don’t matter.
@ umm no… knowing how to watch basketball is everything. Stat nerds are clueless.

3x Champ 1x FMVP
27. Elgin Baylor - The PROTOTYPE.
Before West, Julius, Thompson, Wilkins, MJ, Hardaway, Kobe, Carter, TMac, Wade, Ant etc
There was Elgin Baylor. The first Air, the first Mamba, the first Half Man/Amazing, Flash etc
Baylor spearheaded an era that hardly wanted his talents there but had no other choice but to be in awe of it.
Think Harden, in shape but not as good of a playmaker, twice the rebounder and a better defender.
That’s Elgin.
*left a season before historic LAL title win
28. David Robinson - The Admiral.
The USA’s biggest weapon in the 90’s was also one of the greatest ever.
Made the spurs relevant pre-Duncan and post. Has some of the greatest seasons statistically. Think Giannis but 7’2 with a lefty and 15 footer plus an even better defender.
2x Champ 1x MVP
29. Karl Malone - the Mailman was LBJ minus the handles and vision.
King of the pick n roll.
1x MVP
30. Charles Barkley - The Round Mound of Rebound was the Tasmanian devil in a basketball jersey.
Prime 25 5 13 guy.
Impact everywhere he went.
OG DREAMTEAM member by the way…
1x MVP
30 (?) Clyde Drexler - The Glide. One of the most useful all around talents in nba history. One of the greatest two way players ever. Helped every squad he went to become a contender.
1x Champ
* HONORABLE MENTION:
McHale, Nash, Harden, Parker, CP3, Stockton, Walton, Payton, Westbrook, Drexler, Ewing, Sam Jones, Cousy, Pierce, Iverson, McAdoo, Frazier, Unsled, Reed, Webber, English, A. Davis
^GIVE HONEST FEEDBACK CRITIQUE ATTEMPTING A PERFECT TOP30
LeBron ain't better than Kobe bean Bryant
This last is ass
@@bedroombulliesbbs3665if there is one guy he's better than it's definitely kobe
Why did you put bill over LeBron but not over jordan
Honestly I dont agree with everything but the list is well thought out. Respect.
K mart not falling for the asstin reaves bait, I’m not letting an undrafted, unathletic fraud run my team before a legit starting guard in Beal. Team gone have 7 wins and be bummy as hell reaves will NEVER average 30.
We don’t know what Beal can do at this point in his career either.. he averaging same as reaves and he’s always injured. So at this point in life I’m taking reaves
@ that wasn’t the topic of the fuccin conversation, these are nba players talking basketball not fangirlies who love frauds
@@theronhuggins that wasn’t the topic of the conversation you fangirl 😂😂

Jokic can’t be top 10 , he ain’t black enough for Kendrick Perkins. 😂
LMAO JOKIC IS ALREADY TOP 10
Jokic not better than D-wade
You're right he's much much better
Wade is my GOAT, but Jokic gonna end up higher than Wade all-time when he retires.
