No, because the rumor is out that Kobe and 'Nessa are working on baby #3 who, if male, will be the #1 pick in the 2033 NBA draft.

speaking of which, Arvydas Sabonis' kid Domantis is destroying the under 19 competition in europe

I'm wondering if he makes the kid follow his path & stay in europe until he matures or if he forces him to jump pond, he's only 6'9" but he's a rebound machine with a jumper

I would have preferred the good Rev to have posted the Kobe dunk on Dwight.

The next great athlete to fall from the Bryant tree will not be one of Kobe's...and it won't be a boy.

Doesn't Kobe have a niece who runs track?

Kareem has his way . . . until Wilt gets mad . . .

Dominance is shown when the powers that be change the rules in part to combat how great you are. That was very much Wilt Chamberlain (the only non-guard to lead the league in assists)

Well, that's a function of timing, too. It's like Jim Thorpe was the greatest athlete of all time simply due to what he did and when he did it. It doesn't mean that guys today aren't "better" than him today in any number of the sports he dominated during his time.

I will say that both Wilt and Kareem would be #1 picks and All Stars in today's league, but I'm sure Wilt would not average 30 rebounds in a season.

My overall opinion is Kareem was better than Wilt for a longer time but Wilt was probably the single most influential player in the shaping of how we play basketball today.

If I had to pick a center in their prime to build a team around, I'd still start with Wilt at center, MJ at SG, Magic at PG, Tim Duncan at PF and LeBron at SF.

No Larry Bird? or Pistol Pete? racist.

Earl Monroe in his prime.

Owlman · Post by **Owlman** » Sat Jul 27, 2013 10:41 pm

Larry Bird over LeBron @ SF? Earl Monroe over MJ @ SG?

AlabamAlum · Post by **AlabamAlum** » Sat Jul 27, 2013 10:58 pm

I was thinking Earl as the PG. And yes, I think he was a better ballcarrier, passer, and scorer than Magic for the three or four years he played PG. If his knees hadn't have been weak, I believe he woulda stayed at the 1.

I know Magic is the more popular choice, and certainly Johnson played longer...but I would take Monroe in his prime.

Owlman · Post by **Owlman** » Sat Jul 27, 2013 11:20 pm

Walt "Clyde" Frazier was the PG. Earl "the Pearl" Monroe was the SG.

That was with the Knicks. Before that, with the Bullets, he played PG for 3 or 4 years. IMO, his best years.
