Recently, in an interview with Lakers legend Michael Cooper, he talked about the topic of "who is the best player in history". He bluntly said: James is the strongest player in active service, but Kareem is the greatest in history in his mind player of. The details are as follows:
Why does Michael Cooper think that James is the best player in active service?
Before answering whether James is the best player in history, Michael Cooper first clarified that the "greatest player" is too broad. After all, every player plays in his own era. By implication, Michael Cooper believes that there is no way to objectively evaluate who is the greatest player in history. However, Michael Cooper stated exactly that James is the strongest player in active service.
There is no need to explain too much about James' status among active players. It is clear from the rankings of active players given by major media. For example, the well-known sports media ESPN announced the new season's top 100 stars list, James ranked first; and in the BLEACHER REPORT (stand sports report) announced the current top 100 stars list, James also ranked first in the league. Furthermore, the vast majority of fans have regarded James as the top two players in NBA history. Therefore, the remarks about James's current history as the No. 1 player have been blameless and have become a recognized fact.
Why does Michael Cooper think Kareem is the best player in history?
As mentioned above, in Michael Cooper's mind, there will be different strongest players in different eras, but there is no way to make an intuitive comparison. If Michael Cooper has to give an answer, his choice is Skygoal Kareem. There are four reasons: First, because of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's excellent dunk skills, for example, because Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's dunk skills were too strong, the NCAA league where he was at that time introduced a regulation: dunking is prohibited.
The second is that although Jabbar is a center, he has the same skills as a defender and can take the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt. The third is that Jabbar is facing the inside twin towers composed of Olajuwon + Sampson. The performance is unstoppable; fourth, the same center players, O'Neal and Chamberlain have poor free throw skills, but Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's free throw percentage can reach 72% (regular season) and 74% (playoffs).
What do you think of Michael Cooper's remarks about the best player?
Although Michael Cooper is a Lakers legend, he did not award the title of the best player in history to the Lakers star James, nor did he follow the trend to choose Jordan. As a star who used to compete with players such as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Johnson and Jordan, Michael Cooper is fully qualified to talk about the best player in his mind. The most noteworthy thing about
is that Michael Cooper, who has witnessed the great games of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Jordan and other stars, thinks that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is the best player in history. It is undeniable that Michael Cooper's remarks are just a family statement, but it is more or less better than some "professionals" who only use documentary highlights to measure the identity of the best players.
