    When we talk about basketball history and try to compare the greatest scorers from different eras, it's often a difficult task due to many rule changes, differences in competition, and overall basketball evolution. In this video, we'll dissect the games of five of the best scorers that ever played in the NBA, explain why they were so effective, and then finally, we'll try to answer the difficult question:

  • @christopherdunlap7028
    @christopherdunlap7028 2 роки тому +226

    Durant is close to 7 feet but it isn't height that separates MJ, it's his leaping ability. While Jordan's height may only be 6'6 his ability to leap and stay off the ground made him impossible to guard. Couple that with his underrated strength and he was unstoppable. Even with the height advantage that Durant has, his back to the basket game wasn't nearly as deadly as MJ's and I have no doubt that if the 3 ball had been as prevalent in the 80's and 90's, that MJ wouldn't have created an ungaurdable deep shot to match.

    I'd say the title goes to the player who kept getting mentioned without having his own segment in the video: Wilt. The stat which made the most unguardable: 48.5 min/gm, he rarely took a rest. Head-to-head against Russell (about 140 games), Wilt averaged 29.9 points and 28.1 rebounds per game. When that's your line against one of the best defenders in NBA history, against the best team of the decade, it's the definition of unguardable.

    IMO, if you had to point out one huge advantage that Jordan had over every NBA player ever, it was his first step. I think I've only seen one video talk about it, but Jordan's first step is probably the quickest and most explosive I've ever seen out of any player. That's partly why he was so efficient at mid-range scoring; people had to respect his first step and his ability to just blow right by them

    • @cfl4286
      @cfl4286 8 місяців тому

      Being unguardable is also about mentality which is where MJ beats kd by a long shot. Kd was more physically gifted, but MJs mentality and sheer will as a scorer is unmatched. You can see it in the numbers. Kd has 4 scoring titles, MJ has 10. Kd averaged 30 or more twice, MJ did it 8 times. KD’s second highest scoring season ever is MJ’s career average. I truly believe KD could’ve eclipsed MJ as the best scorer ever, but he just doesn’t have the killer takeover gene in him that MJ had. You could be the most talented player ever, but if you don’t go out there and impose your will on the opponent, then you make yourself so much more guardable.

      It IS Jordan and it's not particularly close! And it's not just because Jordan has the highest career ppg average of all time. That actually should have gone to Wilt, but Wilt purposefully dropped his scoring to blend better on his team. No, MJ is the most unguardable player ever because he has the highest POSTSEASON ppg average of all time! Jordan increased his PPG average when competition got tougher, like in the playoffs. Wilt's scoring average dropped in the playoffs!

      That "age 40" stuff is somewhat overrated - there are a BUNCH of folks that were still playing at 40+, starting with every player that had 19 or more years in the league except Moses Malone (straight out of high school) - and MJ only managed 15 years by 40, Kevin Garnett (also straight out of high school) managed 21 and A LOT more minutes.

    Steph Curry should at least deserve an honourable mention, simply because, him being the greatest shooter of all-time, forces defences to sell out. People might think he's just a shooter, but, he's way more than that. Imo, he's a better playmaker than harden. Both are pretty equal as on ball playmakers, but it's off ball playmaking that sets Curry apart, Harden is absolute garbage, off the ball. Being unguardable isn't just about scoring.

      Also that should show how bad backcourt box outs were if jordan is getting that many offensive rebounds and before you say that’s how good he was, he’s actually just average amongst shooting guards of his era in offensive rebounds. So yea it’s more of just poor fundamentals of his opponents and a lower missed shot trajectory range (because barely any guy in the 80s and 90s can take a legit volume amount of 3s compare today) then jordan being that good because he wasn’t even on par to guys like Clyde, Alvin Robertson, Dennis Johnson in his prime, and Ron Harper in his prime, in offensive rebounds. Not to mention he just got less then 2 and generally hit 6 total for most of his prime, I don’t know how with less possessions he’ll get more total rebounds.

    Additionally when Wilt was playing they didn’t record advanced stats so they can’t be computed today.
    Lastly basketball was not as popular sport in the 1960s and 70s as it is and was in the 90s and beyond so there wasn’t as much film of Wilt as there is of these other players.

    What about Shaq? I think you said in another video that you needed two people to guard him and often that wasnt enough. How is he not on the list?

    You have to analyze postseason numbers. That's where MJ seperates himself from anyone else who ever played, including Durant.

      Not as much as you think - pretty much ALL of the true greats brought out their "A" game in the playoffs, and improved their regular season numbers.

      @@wanwanyinyang1568 Look at what I SAID and don't try to "interpret" it.
      I didn't say ANYTHING about MJ not bringing his A game in the playoffs.
      However, for one example of WHY I said what I said, Wilt's playoff numbers DROPPED vs his regular-season numbers - not a lot, but noticeable especially on the PPG in his early playoff runs.
      Are you going to claim Wilt wasn't an all-time great?

    Fail! The most unguardable player must be Bird. He would tell opponents the play and from where he was going to shoot and score and opponents knew it.

      Personally i think mj is the goat but if we’re talking about most ungardable then it is probably wilt or kareem even though they did in fact play in weaker eras they dominated those eras, and before you say there eras were just as good they weren’t but it’s not wilts fault that he played in a weaker era so you can’t take that away from him

      Grant Williams I respect that answer ngl and yes I do agree Jordan is the goat but if you take 7 foot tall wilt who has bunnies and enormously big hands that is what you would call Unguardable. He’s also extremely stronge and extremely fast for his size

    Wilt was a track&field champ and Harlem Globetrotter before the NBA. So, combine height, athleticism and skills, you've got a guy with 72 NBA records (excluding those not officially tallied then). MJ comes a far 2nd with 39 (with blocks&steals).
