The game of Basketball has been my passion since I was 5 years old. I grew up as a kid watching my dad's recorded VHS tapes of playoff games through the 70s and 80s, and collected all the Basketball cards. Something about the game and what it represents just hooked me from a very young age.
My love for the game only continues to grow as time goes on. I love studying and analyzing the game, with an unbiased perspective. Feel free to subscribe, follow me on social media, and celebrate this amazing game and it's rich history with me!

Many players are incapable of entering the league at 18 now that the rule has been changed. And the different eras where in 60s/70s/80s entering the NBA straight from HS wasn't even really a thing players did. The video/rankings would be heavily skewed towards a few players.

I feel like so many superstars get passes for just scoring a lot of points without taking into account the efficiency, and efficient players don't get credited enough for it especially in high volumes

    Although this was a great video and I mostly agree with this list, I strongly disagree with 2013 LeBron James at #8. This was the most complete LeBron we've ever seen, he shot incredibly efficient, and he led the Heat to 66 wins and a 27 game win streak. 2013 LeBron was arguably the greatest basketball player ever, as he now had a good post game and an elite 3pt shot, while being at his athletic and defensive peak. And he was runner up in DPOY and a vote away from unanimous MVP. I think this season should've been at least in the top 5. Although I really did enjoy this video and I can't wait until you get 100k, which will be well deserved!

It's nothing like trying to find more full games by other greats.

And let's not forget he played against centers like Chamberlain, Thurmond, Reed and Bellamy. How can you not give him at least an honorable mention? He won 5 MVP awards and the finals MVP has been named after him.

    2016 Steph is definitely under appreciated. Absolutely agree with your placement. 50% on field goals for a 3pt specialist is an incredible achievement all by itself. 50/45/90 (not just 50/40/90) is historic by itself. Getting 50/45/90 AND being the only 50/40/90 season to lead the league in scoring is unbelievable. Regularly pulling up from 30 feet out and STILL maintaining 45% from 3 is unguardable. Add in the 3 point record on top of that, you absolutely deserve recognition as one of the greatest seasons of all time, especially with decent assist and steals numbers to go along with your game-breaking shooting. I think KD joining the Warriors and all the controversy there kind of made us forget just how unreal MVP Steph was. There’s a reason they won 73 games that year.
