I've been doing this

AND this
the entire thread.
Some of the arguments on here are beyond stupid. We don't know how good Jerry West is because we haven't seen on him on a nightly basis?
Players know are more knowledgeable than in his era heck even 10 yearsago? Kobe #1? Athletic players are better than non athletic players? Wow. If you can't see how the NBA right now is worse than just 10 years ago there is aserious problem. The players now have nowhere near the fundamentals nor the knowledge of the game that players in West's era had. All we have arespecialized players and superstars. It's hard to find BASKETBALL players. Hard. No one (for some odd reason) strives towards having a complete game. Tosuggest that Jerry West couldn't play in this era is crazy. If there is one thing I have noticed it is that athleticism means squat when you play peoplethat play the game right. Which is a great reason as to why the USA has been getting it's @#$ handed to them in international play. That's off topicthough. Jerry West should probably be #2 at this point right now....and I only say that because Kobe's career is not finished. #3 is his spot IMO. All thisother stuff is outrageous. Players now are easily the most athletic to have played but most talented? That I don't know if I can agree with. Athleticismdoes not equal talent and for some reason people seem to think that. I honestly think some of you need to take about a week and rent some old NBA films...thencome back. Let's see how drastic a change your opinion has.
