I disagree but your take is fine, just make sure there’s an asterisk in 99 and ‘12.
when it’s all said and done nobody gonna look back at the rings and care about an asterisk or not. Ring is a ring
Let the west catch up

Idk if I wanna say better everything besides defense bro. AD can score with either of them. But, they're probably more iso in getting their own buckets, while AD's, this year, has come mostly assisted.
Defense is a big deal
AD has a better motor too.

Yes, all lockout seasons would also have an asterisk since they didn't follow the sequencing of a Traditional season.Again, all an asterisk means is "See Note." (Different).
It doesn't mean Fake, invalid.

No asterisk in the history books. Only W's and L's.
Asterisks are for the fans to talk about in barbershops and around the water cooler. And there's a finite time for fans. The hate and love eventually dissipates as generation move forward. The love and hate for mj from the 90s has been replaced by love and hate for Kobe to love and hate for mj. Everybody has their own goat.

Those 3 are SO different that I don't even see the point in comparing.

I'm laughing at all the excuses. Especially the one where Embiid and Jokic are better bigs than AD.

In a vacuum, you could argue Embiid maybe.
But, Jokic better than AD?Where? How?

What world is Giannis a wing player? He's clearly a big based on his style of play on offense. he has the versatility to defend the winged players but an offense he's essentially a young Shaq.

Harden stats are better than Luka, he received more votes for all nba/mvp, and the eye test shows he’s better as well.
Please explain because I have a reason in mind...

Jokic is more talented and makes his team better. Has almost more wins, made the playoffs more in less games/years than AD.
I'm comparing it to AD's time as a Pelican. Playing with Bron is a damn asterisk.
You could argue AD played with better players too during his time in New Orleans.

Modern day Shaq. Yea you can put him in the big category. No argument here. Might as well slide AD further down.

While I agree with the first part. The numbers don't tell the whole story. Luka a better floor general I feel. It's not just the output but the mentality.

When discussing "talent" are you simply referring to Pass/Shoot/Dribble?
There is another side of the court as well that yall don't like to consider "talent."
