I have studied college and NBA videos til my have eyes turned a burnt red. I have witnessed at least 2000 high school, college and NBA games and have kept as a cache, leading to my personal sports prognosticating, deciphering the best players from the rest of the so-called, greatest.

In other words, I am supremely confident I can pick the top 15 basketball players to EVER play basketball. Bar-nun.
Now, I want to educate the doubters; the way too young and inexperienced members, who simply do not yet have the needed years of accumulation of basketball knowledge, to even try to pick the very best player to ever play. Just forget it!

However, I am going to share with all members--including the ineligibles above I mentioned--and give you the greatest single player of all-time. You can thank me when you age another 20 years.

To be crowned the greatest, the GOAT, that man must blessed with certain intangibles only a very few ever had. I think 7 individual skills are a standard, to be among that top 15.

1. Courage/toughness
2. Elite basketball skills
3. A proven winner--without any doubt
4. One who does the winning things needed in the final minutes of a game, to salvage a win from a all game, considered already a lost cause.
5. Absolutely no weaknesses are found in this choice, that would ever be considered to be a glaring handicap, leading to him losing games.
6. This is my number 1, and I see it as the utmost importance; he will have the best-all-around fundamentals/skills/smarts, needed, to not only dominate the basketball game, but to set almost unbeatable NBA records that make take a generation or two to break?
7. And for this man, he will need a resume of NBA championships. There will be no excuse for not winning an NBA championship.

* A do not ever forget one important aspect of any man's career in basketball. We look at this special basketball player, and judge him only, while/when, he, is or was, playing with near perfect health, and at the same time, meanwhile, dominating the game. Something those "same members" above overlook so very often.

No surprise to a few member's but a shocking surprise to the others, but his initials are....LB.
** Two videos that may influence the gullible's above, or, might even convince others to open up those closed minds as to who is the genuine GOAT?
