couple of days without you smearing my name

c'mon fam, you better than that (I hope)

what I said, and follow me here, I'm going to type it out

read slowly, I'm tired of re-explaining it

EFFICIENCY will be his legacy

if you PROJECT his career

he has A CHANCE at being

#1 in points, all-time
top 10 in assists, all-time
and top 20 in rebounds, all-time

add those up, and it equates to the most efficient player of all time.

in the era of analytics and stat geeks

that will be their case for Bron and GOAT (+ all the hardware, you are aware he's won about every award possible at this point in his career, including rings)

in case you aren't, here's what he's done at 30 Y.O.:

2× NBA Champion (2012–2013)
2× NBA Finals MVP (2012–2013)
4× NBA Most Valuable Player (2009–2010, 2012–2013)
11× NBA All-Star (2005–2015)
2× NBA All-Star Game MVP (2006, 2008)
9× All-NBA First Team (2006, 2008–2015)
2× All-NBA Second Team (2005, 2007)
5× NBA All-Defensive First Team (2009–2013)
NBA Rookie of the Year (2004)
NBA scoring champion (2008)

yes, rings may not be his legacy*

rings are Bill Russell's legacy, for NBA history

rings are MJ's legacy, in the modern era, based on his incredible runs

given that Bron will probably not execute 2 3-peats in his career

or win 11 chips

and I'll go out on a limb here and say NO ONE WILL

that will always give MJ the edge based on JUST rings <--- that's HIS legacy

now if we consider a player in his 11th season, playing in his 6th finals

I think it's safe to say he gets some more chips

how many...IDK

*but there is a possibility that he does end up with 6

an outside chance, but still a chance

so if he does retire ranked all-time in those stats I listed

the question is

not how many does he win

but how many does he need + the stats to be GOAT?

BYE!
