That’s a straw man.

Not when you imply you have this great knowledge the rest of us lack.

ETA. "Zero knowledge"
"Don't understand"
"Ignorant people"
"Typical paper fan"

Just a few examples

No I said that if you didn’t witness a players career you can’t properly judge the player.

Just saw your edit and yes that one poster was very ignorant and hypocritical. Using matchups of a 39 year old Hakeem or Ewing vs a prime Shaq is intentionally misleading or ignorant. Not posting the drop off in production for Jokers matchups with quality interior bigs like Dwight Howard, Boogie Cousins or Embiid to hide that drop off is hypocritical.

If you really had you wouldn’t take the position you’re taking. Either that or you have a fandom bias. Put their skill sets side by side, Joker is the better passer and perimeter shooter, the other guys are taller, faster, longer, much better defenders and better 1 on 1 scorers vs other bigs and in traffic. This is why I framed the discussion for Jokers era. Can you imagine Hakeem in a 4 around 1 set being guarded by a 6-9 or 6-10 player who wasn’t developed to defend a post player? I’m not making an era argument but you’re failing to realize that those 5-6 big men during that era were an anomaly, we’ve never seen anything like them before or since.

See, you have nothing but personal attacks and deflections because you can’t address the actual argument. Typical of someone who’s ill equipped to make one.

Sabonis before his injuries would be on that list


Although I've only seen sabonis play post-injury, I would imagine pre-injury Sabonis' game looked a lot like jokic

He's Bill Walton with a three-pointer.


He wishes he had Walton's pre-injury post- moves and he would've liked to have Jokers range and 3- point shot but no big ( let alone big guards) had that back then.

Plays ZERO defense. Have to be be a force on defense at the 5 in order to be the best. He is top 3 offense. Not even top 20 in defense.
