    Gil’s criteria for voting:
    Everyone is fair game. No grandfathering in. Original 50 out!
    Championships are TEAM awards. I’m looking at personal stats and championships are the cherry on top
    All NBA > All Star
    No predicting or fast-forwarding. No future success based on present stats. Stats are CURRENT stats.

    T-Mac was arguably the best player in the world for about half a decade. He was 7-time all star AND 7-time all-NBA, plus a scoring champ... That's not enough? I feel like being top 3 for 6 or 7 years is just as significant as being top 15 for, say, 12 years. In the same vein, one could make an argument that being an MVP -- i.e., THE (supposedly) best player for a given year -- should automatically qualify someone barring some extreme unforeseen circumstance (i.e., only having 2 or 3 healthy seasons before an injury). Anybody who's a multi-time MVP, it's a no-brainer.
    The argument for a dude like Mikan is that he was _far and away_ the best player of his era. It was a crappy era but he was clearly that dude. He shot 40%, sure, but _offense as we know it literally hadn't been invented yet._ People weren't even taking jump shots. Audiences were throwing batteries and stuff... games were played in _cages!_ If you're not going to ding guys for shooting insane percentages now when you can't hand check them, don't ding George for playing during an era where people could body check you and it wasn't even a foul.

    If Harden only average like 20 pts this season, it just proves that his stats are inflated due to the foul rules. Then he needs to go out. Btw the All-NBA are voted on by the media too so it's not more valid than All-Star. There needs to be a player vote list. A lot of players in the 60s and 50s have inflated stats too. If anything, gotta take stats and pacing into consideration.

      I hated Harden for a long time, but after those back to back dunks in Draymond's face during the playoffs, I can't deny his greatness anymore. I'm still not a fan (and never will be), but to deny his greatness is to expose your ignorance of the game.

    No player before the 80s should be on it. They wouldn’t even make a roster in today’s league. If you want to include them then do a 50 - 70s top 75, 80 - 90s top 75, 00 - 10s top 75

      Exactly. Ewing was better scorer and shot blocker. Also dwight played in an era when there were no bigs lol. Who the hell is Dwight competing against. Ewing had David robinson, Hakeem Olajuwon, Shaq, Rik Smits, mutombo, Alonzo mourning. Dwight wasn’t going up against any scoring bigmen in his prime. At one point his comp was Andrew Bynum 🤣🤣🤣🤣
