I think he's going to be. If he retired today I think it would be tough to include him.

Not currently, but very well maybe after things are done

I'd give him Dolph's spot to spite JORR.

Yeah but he could have a really great "second phase" of his career like Ray Allen.

Have to figure out if I'm putting Kobe or Lebron number 1.

Give me three more years at a high level, and one more championship.

He's first ballot HOF right?

White Mamba should go ahead of both.

Scalabrine has become a caricature, but he actually could be decent sometimes.

Yes, Curry is a Top 50 player.

Let's be honest: You could take any five bench players in the NBA right now and they'd beat any players from the 60's and 70's straight up.

Bigger, faster, stronger and they put more hours into the craft than anyone before them.

Basketball was just something Billy Cunningham did when he wasn't at the discotech.

That's a bad take. Just to name five off the top of my head...

Oscar
West
Sam Jones
Elgin Baylor
Wilt

absolutely destroys the five best bench players in the NBA currently. It would likely be a 40+ point blowout.

Don't be upset. It isn't just basketball. It is the same in every sport.

I'm not upset. I just think it's an asinine opinion is all.

Top 25-30 probably just guessing off the top of my head.

Edit: Just saw the currently qualifier. Maybe around 40-50ish if he retired today.

Wilt averaged 48 minutes a game for a season. He was in far better shape than any player playing in the NBA today.
