I wasn't around to watch Olajuwon in his heyday, but I've seen highlights and agree with Bill Simmons take that you'll never see a guy exactly like that again. Grew up playing soccer and was insanely nimble for someone that size.

 

[clyde the glide]

Iguodala

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I think KD is so smooth and fluid that it's easy to forget how tall he actually is

 

[earldagoat]

KD also shook off his achilles injury like it was nothing. That's bananas.

I'll throw Tracy McGrady's name into the ring. He was a monster in Orlando.

 

[MVP]

T-Mac and VC were cut from the same cloth. No moxie at all. Must run in the family.

And speaking of Zo...

Not at 1

Giannis is number 1 all time in the modern era just in terms of physical gifts.

 

[freeze]

Giannis more gifted than Bron? I don't see it.

 

[ballinsam23]

Can’t include KD without including Tmac.

 

[youngwolf]

She can't be my kids auntie

I wish she was my aunt.

They weren't in order.
I'd have to go with Bron as my #1 though.
The fact that he just now experiencing his first major injury in year 18 is insane.

 

[pums]

Giannis more gifted than Bron? I don't see it.

He’s not as fast or bouncy but he’s so much longer and might be even stronger.

Look how far Giannis has gotten with minimal “skill”

 

[ballinsam23]

If Giannis played in 60-70s he mightve been the greatest player ever. Wilt status.

 

[MVP]

Eh he got injured in 2018 as well

Lol same with Bron lmaooo

Giannis isn't stronger. I've seen Bron manhandle him the first MVP year.

 

[freeze]

Bron, giannis and Russ top 3 though.

MJ and pippen and David Robinson and Larry Nance sr and Ivo and Nique and Kemp and Larry Johnson all in the mix for top 10-15 tho fasho.

 

[D StaXX]

Oh yeah. I forgot about that. Still though.. no major injuries until his 16th year.
Still crazy as hell.
