I think the money trail story (which ran ever since s1) is some of the best things the series brought up.
Bubbles' arc in s5 (again like the money trail, the story began in s1) is one of the best things of the entire series. His NA speech is excellently written and performed.
Lester and Clay Davis' scene is one of my fave of the series.
Bubbles getting to the top of the stairs is one of my fave images of the series.
The fallout from Carcetti not taking the $ for the schools and his political games / maneuvering to get to the governor's mansion is one of the best stories in the series.
I'd also count the nod to the docks with the appearance of the homeless Johnny 50 and the Marlo-Andy Krawczyk scene.
I'm aware that my post isn't contesting your statement because you said "not the best anything" and none of what I list above I'd say is "*the* best" but "some of the best."
