Good spot Boo, I see Garry Bush cashed too.

Carlo has timbered up a bit, he must weigh nearly as much as Chompy now.

I'm just scared she'll beat me up.

As to you, I assumed you were already a Senior. Even Chompy is a Senior these days.

Argue, whilst I have your attention, what's your view as to where Le Bron stands in the all-time NBA greats after breaking the record a few weeks ago?

Argue, whilst I have your attention, what's your view as to where Le Bron stands in the all-time NBA greats after breaking the record a few weeks ago?

Clear 2nd behind Jordan.   Longevity wise he could easily be considered the goat as he clearly has many years left in him and he didn't go to college so started in the nba at 18 whereas most all time greats did college and started in the nba at 22.   He will set all time records by the time he retires that will never be broken and no one in history has invested more in their body and looked after it better.   Will never be better than prime MJ for me though whatever he does.   Jordan 6-0 in NBA finals with 2 3-peats in a row with 2 years out to try to be a baseball pro.   Never played a deciding game 7 in any of his 6 nba finals.  The best clutch finisher in history.  Will always be MJ for me as the GOAT but Lebron is a mile clear in second for me.

One more thing, before we get in trouble for derailing the thread.


Have you seen the 10 part Documentary "The Last Dance"? Essentially, the story of Michael Jordan & the 1997/8 Chicago Bulls season.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_Dance_(miniseries)


Lots of 1 on 1 interviews with MJ, Scottie Pitten, Dennis Rodman & many others. What a character & player Rodman was.

It's on NetFlix, 10 x 1 hour episodes. I don't follow NBA but I watched all 10 x 1 hour episodes twice. I watch every sports documentary & docuseries no matter what the sport is, & I think it's the best sports docu I've ever seen, & it's not even close. It's stunning, & no punches are pulled in the interviews, including MJ's alleged gambling issues.

Here's a 7 minute trailer.

Yes its an amazing docu im biased because imo its the best team ever in my fav sport in the era of my prime as a player myself.   That bulls team were totally unplayable.  Steve Kerr the now coach of the GS warriors was a key role player on that team as well and had a full on fight with MJ in training.
