As I said, you can't judge a player's offensive game only looking at stats. Offensive is more complicated, it's not just PPG.

Umm, in judging the GOAT big it is. Show me another all time great big with Russell's pedestrian offensive numbers. Kaj, Wilt, Hakeem, Shaq. All dominant offensively.

Exactly! That guy is talking like he grew up watching Russell play live. Don't talk about shits you don't know.

Show we another all time great big with 11 rings.
We can make arbitrary criterias like these all day long.

And that's why when judging the GOAT, you have to look at the entire picture. Kaj won enough and was much more dominant offensively and played closer to the modern era when he talent pool was much greater. For me, Kaj clearly over Russell. If you disagree, fine.

Yeah, it's fine.
Before this discussion, I didn't know if you were a knowledgeable poster, I didn't know if your GOAT list should be taken seriously. And I didn't make premature conclusions on you. I asked you questions, I informed myself and now, after discussing with you, I can safely conclude that you don't know much. Your GOAT list don't mean anything and shouldn't be taken seriously.
It was nice discussing with you. Have a good time.

To me, Kareem is the best to ever play. Or Lew Alincdor rather.

He's a GOAT in my eyes. Very few arguments could be used against him.

what are the arguments against jordan?
it can't be longevity - he won 6 rings in 15 seasons - that's long enough... and his 6/15 winning percentage (40%) is the greatest of all time (besides russell ofc).
it can't be stats or accolades.
so what is it?
is it that he turned an ordinary 2nd round exit team into the greatest team of all time?
so when you say "very few"... i can't think of any.

And it was actually 1st round exit .
