    When we talk about basketball history and try to compare the greatest scorers from different eras, it's often a difficult task due to many rule changes, differences in competition, and overall basketball evolution. In this video, we'll dissect the games of five of the best scorers that ever played in the NBA, explain why they were so effective, and then finally, we'll try to answer the difficult question:

  • @christopherdunlap7028
    @christopherdunlap7028 2 года назад +228

    Durant is close to 7 feet but it isn't height that separates MJ, it's his leaping ability. While Jordan's height may only be 6'6 his ability to leap and stay off the ground made him impossible to guard. Couple that with his underrated strength and he was unstoppable. Even with the height advantage that Durant has, his back to the basket game wasn't nearly as deadly as MJ's and I have no doubt that if the 3 ball had been as prevalent in the 80's and 90's, that MJ wouldn't have created an ungaurdable deep shot to match.

    I'd say the title goes to the player who kept getting mentioned without having his own segment in the video: Wilt. The stat which made the most unguardable: 48.5 min/gm, he rarely took a rest. Head-to-head against Russell (about 140 games), Wilt averaged 29.9 points and 28.1 rebounds per game. When that's your line against one of the best defenders in NBA history, against the best team of the decade, it's the definition of unguardable.

    IMO, if you had to point out one huge advantage that Jordan had over every NBA player ever, it was his first step. I think I've only seen one video talk about it, but Jordan's first step is probably the quickest and most explosive I've ever seen out of any player. That's partly why he was so efficient at mid-range scoring; people had to respect his first step and his ability to just blow right by them

    All great players on this list. But when the game has to change the rules because a player is so dominant (Wilt Chamberlain) I think that makes an argument in his favor for being the most unguardable.
    Additionally when Wilt was playing they didn’t record advanced stats so they can’t be computed today.
    Lastly basketball was not as popular sport in the 1960s and 70s as it is and was in the 90s and beyond so there wasn’t as much film of Wilt as there is of these other players.

      It IS Jordan and it's not particularly close! And it's not just because Jordan has the highest career ppg average of all time. That actually should have gone to Wilt, but Wilt purposefully dropped his scoring to blend better on his team. No, MJ is the most unguardable player ever because he has the highest POSTSEASON ppg average of all time! Jordan increased his PPG average when competition got tougher, like in the playoffs. Wilt's scoring average dropped in the playoffs!

      Wilt played more minutes in his career than MJ did - in fact, you have to pull out folks that played 3 OR MORE years (Elvin Hayes at 16, then you need 19+ year men past Elvin) than Wilt did to pass his total minuted played.
      That "age 40" stuff is somewhat overrated - there are a BUNCH of folks that were still playing at 40+, starting with every player that had 19 or more years in the league except Moses Malone (straight out of high school) - and MJ only managed 15 years by 40, Kevin Garnett (also straight out of high school) managed 21 and A LOT more minutes.

      @cfl4286 8 месяцев назад

      Being unguardable is also about mentality which is where MJ beats kd by a long shot. Kd was more physically gifted, but MJs mentality and sheer will as a scorer is unmatched. You can see it in the numbers. Kd has 4 scoring titles, MJ has 10. Kd averaged 30 or more twice, MJ did it 8 times. KD’s second highest scoring season ever is MJ’s career average. I truly believe KD could’ve eclipsed MJ as the best scorer ever, but he just doesn’t have the killer takeover gene in him that MJ had. You could be the most talented player ever, but if you don’t go out there and impose your will on the opponent, then you make yourself so much more guardable.

People might think he's just a shooter, but, he's way more than that. Imo, he's a better playmaker than harden.

      @@MrSlashblade Did you watch the finals? Most of the game I have seen one man play against one defender all the way to the paint as if you were playing a 1v1. 2P % has been going up as the rate of 3 pointers is causing the game to open up a lot. The fact that MJ averaged more offensive rebounds than players like LeBron who are bigger and more dominant in the paint in today's game as a SG, makes me feel he could average 9 rebounds.

      @@broken78 because Stephs off ball movement (the best in the history of the league).
      the second he starts buzzing around, you need to account for that and switch off at any moment. Something Jordan didn’t ever posses, which opens the game for his teammates.
      Also Steph had just 48% and 43% on FG% and 3FG% how jordan just shoots up to 65% is just you being a fanboy
      And for bostons side Tatum was swarmed and Jaylen was swarmed if you think you need more then one defender for a Marcus smart then man the 80s and 90s must really be trash.
      Also you do know Jordan played in an era (yea what a shock jordan played for more then 96-98) that had more possessions then LeBron on average. LeBron (even if you scale to the amount of years he had) has played in more nba seasons with possessions less then 100 then jordan.
      Also that should show how bad backcourt box outs were if jordan is getting that many offensive rebounds and before you say that’s how good he was, he’s actually just average amongst shooting guards of his era in offensive rebounds. So yea it’s more of just poor fundamentals of his opponents and a lower missed shot trajectory range (because barely any guy in the 80s and 90s can take a legit volume amount of 3s compare today) then jordan being that good because he wasn’t even on par to guys like Clyde, Alvin Robertson, Dennis Johnson in his prime, and Ron Harper in his prime, in offensive rebounds. Not to mention he just got less then 2 and generally hit 6 total for most of his prime, I don’t know how with less possessions he’ll get more total rebounds. So unless he plays Russ’ role then no he cannot get 9 rebounds. Especially since he’s never shown to get 9 boards especially even in just desperate playoffs series he’s hit 9 boards or more 3x in his entire career.

    1 on 1 no doubt it's Kobe he has the proof. But in a game it's KD. I wanna put Giannis, LeBron, Jordan, Wilt, Kareem, Tatum, Khawai, Shaq but KD is just the most perfect player I can think of. I would pick The Greak Freak second to KD
