    Ray Allen, Reggie Miller?

    That's insane. Now, can he keep it up?

    Such a lazy game today. Ended up with nice numbers, because he was clutch, I'll give him that. With his usual game, we win by 15, but maybe he's just tired. This was a long trip.

    yeah, he looked disinterested for most of the game. i think when he saw that young was about to steal the game, he woke up.

    I love Steph so you would think Trae would be the same but man that dude pisses me off. Even worse then harden in some ways. purposely jumps forward to create contact. s*** is an offensive foul: rule of verticality still applies and a defender has a right to be a spot if he was there first

    I really haven't watched much Trae and yes, he's Harden level in terms of watchability for me. I found it incredibly painful to watch and have zero interest in tuning in to more Hawks games.

    can't be worse than harden. he's the main reason that this is starting to run rampant. anyone with any skill is now "wise" to just look for contact at all times instead of play the game.

    i like curry, too--they're not the same.

    D-Wade and Arenas both agree Bron is playing his best basketball right now.

    doncic has fewer votes than curry and jokic? his team hasn't been great, but he's been about as good as last year, when he was the leading vote getter, iirc.

    I'm disappointed our fans haven't got Caruso and THT in the top 10!

    I legitimately lean towards yes, he is already the greatest NBA player of all time. Based on talent, accomplishments, longevity, etc. Pretty much any metric you can think of, his career has the whole package.

    If he continues at this level for a couple more years and wins some more championships in the process, I'm not sure if it's even arguable. The more interesting discussion in that scenario would be if he might be the greatest professional athlete of all time.
