Oscar Robertson:Arguably The Best Of All Time?
Would you say he's got a respectable case for the first spot?
Where do you have him on your all time list?

in terms of talent-skills-production-versatility and so on.... being the best all-round overall complete player ever....
i say HELL YES...........
in terms of career....
i say NO..........

Titles are overrated
Re: Oscar Robertson:Arguably The Best Of All Time?
I would not say he has a case...though I feel a bit odd about it because it seems every single one of his peers does.

Re: Oscar Robertson:Arguably The Best Of All Time?
His case is odd but he may have one

Re: Oscar Robertson:Arguably The Best Of All Time?
Strangely, I do see the case, a pretty low one though. Oscar is underrated on ISH.

i mean if you value an INDIVIDUAL PLAYER...... and dont give a damn about TEAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS.......... then yes.... he could pretty much be the GOAT........ but even then Wilt Chamberlain has something to say about that....

Based on all-around game, stats, individual play, offense.. and probably something more like all of his peers.

Re: Oscar Robertson:Arguably The Best Of All Time?
No. His numbers are great but I question his actual impact on games.. and his numbers need to be put in context as well. And I just can't consider someone to be the greatest of their sport with only one championship as the 2nd best player and leading his team to 50 wins once.

Re: Oscar Robertson:Arguably The Best Of All Time?
There are 6 players can be called g.o.a.t. and Big O isn't one of them.
Jordan
Kareem
Wilt
Russell
Bird
Magic

:-P
Re: Oscar Robertson:Arguably The Best Of All Time?
Personally, the only ones who I consider as arguable GOATs are Chamberlain, Russell, Kareem and Jordan, in no order.
I guess you could make a case for Big O, but I have him just a notch below those guys, in the same category as Magic & Bird.

Anyhow, I don't see him as underrated on ISH. A lot of people have him ranked in front of Kobe, others right behind him.

Jordan, Magic, Kareem, Bird, Russell, Wilt, Shaq, Kobe, and Duncan are better
