Brandy Rodriguez+FollowWas Wizards MJ Still a Top 10 Player in the League?Michael Jordan’s Wizards run (2001–2003) is often remembered as a footnote — but was he still among the NBA’s elite? At age 38–40, MJ averaged: 21.2 PPG, 5.9 RPG, 4.4 APG Made the 2002 All-Star Game MVP Dropped 40+ multiple times, including 43 points at age 40 (still the oldest player to ever do it). The Wizards never made the playoffs, but Jordan proved he could still hang with the best. So here’s the question: did Wizards MJ still belong in the Top 10 players in the league conversation, or was he more of a star name than a true superstar? #MichaelJordan #Wizards #NBAHistory #NBADebate #GOATDebate #Sports #NBA 71Share
Nicholas Buchanan+FollowMichael Jordan: The King of 25+ Point GamesMichael Jordan scored 25+ points in 73.6% of his career games — the highest rate in NBA history. And if you exclude his Wizards years, that number jumps to 78.8%. Consistency, dominance, and scoring at will — MJ set the standard for what greatness looks like night after night. #MichaelJordan #NBAHistory #GOAT #MyNBAGOAT #Bulls #NBAStats #ScoringChamp #Wizards #Sports 389Share
FromTheLand+FollowHow Good Would Jerry West Be in Today’s NBA?Jerry West wasn’t just Mr. Clutch — he averaged 27 points, 6.7 assists, and 5.8 rebounds across his career, made 10 All-NBA First Teams, and is still the only player to win a Finals MVP on the losing side. The respect he commanded went beyond his own era — even Michael Jordan openly acknowledged West’s greatness. That alone speaks volumes about his place in the game. With today’s spacing, three-point emphasis, and guard-driven play, West’s quick release, IQ, and two-way game would make him a superstar in any era. Where would you rank Jerry West if he played in the modern NBA? #NBA #JerryWest #NBAHistory #GOATDebate #MyNBAGOAT #Lakers #Sports 3929Share
Robert Johansson+FollowMost Rigged Title Ever?In the 2006 playoffs, Dwyane Wade shot 250 free throws — that’s 33 more than Shai Gilgeous-Alexander did this year. The whistle was on Wade’s side all postseason, capped off with the infamous 2006 Finals vs Dallas. Was this the most rigged title run in NBA history… or just Wade being unstoppable? #NBA #DwyaneWade #NBAFinals #NBAPlayoffs #Mavs #Heat #NBAHistory #Sports 4751Share
Nicholas Buchanan+FollowPhil Jackson in 1995: “Scottie Is the Greatest All-Around Player”Back in 1995, Phil Jackson had high praise for Scottie Pippen: “Scottie is such an unselfish player; he’s the greatest all-around player in the NBA right now... Now no one can score like Michael, and scoring is a wonderful thing to do, but it’s not the end-all, end-all.” Even in MJ’s shadow, Pippen’s all-around game — defense, playmaking, versatility — earned the respect of one of the greatest coaches ever. #ScottiePippen #PhilJackson #NBAHistory #Bulls #NBALegends #NBAHistory #Sports 90Share
Beth Holland+FollowRobert Horry: The Ultimate WinnerRobert Horry is the only player in NBA history to win multiple championships with three different franchises: Houston Rockets – 2 rings (’94, ’95) Los Angeles Lakers – 3 rings (’00, ’01, ’02) San Antonio Spurs – 2 rings (’05, ’07) Seven championships total, countless clutch shots, and a legacy built on always showing up when it mattered most.

Robert Johansson+FollowPenny Hardaway on LeBron James’ Legacy“He’s never cheated the game, never taken games off, and carried the crown since day one.” Penny Hardaway says LeBron James’ career isn’t just legendary — it’s a blueprint for the next generation. From fulfilling expectations as a No. 1 pick to sustaining greatness for over two decades, Penny calls it “ridiculous” how Bron has delivered on every level. Is LeBron’s career the ultimate model for future stars? #LeBronJames #PennyHardaway #NBA #GOATDiscussion #MyNBAGOAT #NBALegends #NBAHistory 3918Share
Beth Holland+FollowKobe vs Shaq in the West — Who Really Carried the Lakers?Forget the Finals for a second — the East back then wasn’t the real test. The wars were in the West: Kings, Spurs, Blazers. That’s where dynasties were either made or broken. Shaq was the unstoppable force inside, but Kobe was the one bailing them out with daggers, defense, and those killer fourth quarters. Without him, does the 3-peat even happen? In those brutal West battles, who was really the engine of the Lakers’ run? #NBAHistory #KobeBryant #Shaq #LakersDynasty #NBAPlayoffs #NBADebate #NBALegends #NBAWhatIf #BasketballDebate 3415Share
FromTheLand+FollowMark Eaton’s 456 Blocks — The NBA’s Most Unbreakable Record?Everyone debates Wilt’s 100 points or LeBron’s career scoring record… but what about Mark Eaton’s 456 blocks in a single season? In 1984–85, Eaton averaged 5.6 blocks per game while playing all 82 games. Nobody has come within 100 blocks of that in 35 years. For perspective: If Wemby averaged 4 BPG across 75 games, that’s only ~300. Eaton’s durability + rim protection was on another planet. Unless the NBA changes rules, this feels like a record that will never be touched. Bonus: Eaton once stonewalled Rex Chapman without even jumping. #MarkEaton #NBARecords #Jazz #Defense #Sports #NBAHistory 165Share
