Who would be GOAT if MJ never existed?

Before MJ's reign the media was calling Magic as the best player of all time, Bird also had a share of his GOAT talk.

Kareem.

[Asukal]

Russell

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Kareem is always #2 on my all-time list. He is such an accomplished player. He has 19 All-Star appearances, 6 rings, 2 Finals MVPs (could've have had 3), 6 MVPs and has the most points in league history. He was a complete player, with 11 All-Defensive team selections to his name. He was also a 19 time all star and had a total of 15 All-NBA team selections. Kareem is also one of the best passing centers ever, having averaged 5 or more assists per game in 3 seasons. He was also a prolific rebounder and shot-blocker. Kareem would dominate in any era thanks to his great scoring and his unstoppable go-to move, aka the Sky Hook.

Kareem
One of the best prime/peaks ever, still dominated the league in his late 30's, has the most unstoppable shot in the history of the game and is an extremely accomplished player.

Wilt. Before Jordan, the emphasis on rings was far less severe. Individual achievement mattered much more, which is why Oscar was also always in the running for GOAT talk. Jordan pretty much changed the entire idea of what the GOAT player's career should look like.

Harold Miner

I don't know, but I do know Malone and Stockton would've moved up considerably in the rankings.

I wonder what would've happened if the Sonics won. Who knows what Payton and Kemp would do.

Kareem. Stats, longevity, championships and didn't play in an 8 team league.

Kareem or Russell. These guys were just as "great" for what they accomplished in their respective eras.
