Reported for being stupid?

Yup

[ImKobe]

Without a rookie Magic Johnson, Kareem's legacy would look vastly different. He's the most overrated player in the NBA history and it's not even close.

Carried Oscar Robertson to an NBA championship, had a title, a finals MVP & 5 MVPs without Magic, won a regular season and a Finals MVP(at 38 years old!) playing with Magic. 19x all-star, 15x all-NBA team, 11x all-NBA defensive team selections, 4x leader in blocks, all-time leading scorer. Dropped 22 and 7 with 2.5 bpg against arguably the greatest Celtics squad ever in 1987, at 40 years old. Overrated my ass, he barely gets mentioned.

Yup

I have an actual proof as to why Kareem is so overrated. It's not stupid, it's smart even.

2 FMVPs out of 6 rings, he's not that good bro.

I would argue that if you took away Magic from Kareem you would still have a much better chance of winning than if you took away Shaq or Pau from Kobe.

1. Michael Jordan
2. Magic Johnson
3. Larry Bird
4. Bill Russell
5. Tim Duncan
6. Lebron James
7. Shaquille O'Neal
8. Kareem Abdul Jabbar
9. Wilt Chamberlain
10. Hakeem Olajuwon

I suppose you honestly believed that everyone here would agree 100% with your list?

[Audio One]

If Hakeem's a top-10 player, than Elgin Baylor's the GOAT

If Hakeem's a top-10 player, so is Kevin Garnett, Isiah Thomas, Karl Malone

If not making it past the first round more than half your career makes you a top-10 player, than Chris Paul's a GOAT PG candidate

If highlights and fancy skills equate to a top-10 career, than Tracy McGrady > Earvin Johnson

I love the logic this website uses

[MichaelCorleone]

At the end of the day, we don't count rings (Horry has 7 so...), we count FMVPs.

FMVP >>>> rings

MJ has 6

Shaq has 3

Magic has 3

Lebron has 2

Hakeem has 2

Kareem, who should have more, has only 2. For all the greatest of all time talk, he really underachieve in the FMVP department. Skyhook one-trick-pony.

[ImKobe]

Here's the number (numbers don't lie):

MJ: 6 FMVPs out of 6 rings

Lebron: 2 FMVPs out of 2 rings

Kareem: 2 FMVPs out of 6 rings (lmao )

Kareem has ONLY 2 FMVP out of his 6 rings, he underachieved in his career.

Because he should have won every Finals MVP playing with young/prime Magic while he was way out of his prime? Are you serious? Dropping 22 and 7 against 1987 Celtics at 40 years old is nothing because he didn't win a Finals MVP at that age?

You weren't even close to being born when Kareem retired, you have no say in this.

Years from now, NOBODY will ever care to look up the stats, they'll just see Kareem has 2 FMVPs out of 6 rings and like me, assumes he's not that great of a player.

2 FMVPs out of 6 championships is just .

Whatever, hope you have more alts ready when this one gets banned.

I should be banned for having a reasonable opinion? At least I included the man in the top 10, and I put him at no.8 which is pretty good.

I love the logic this website uses

hakeem won two titles as the clear cut best player and dragged a team without any other all-nba players to a championship

in a single year, he won DPOTY, MVP and finals MVP

he easily peaked higher than all the names in bold

he is one of the greatest shot blockers and defenders of all time if not the best
