When it comes to G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) debates in the NBA, it often boils down to what the player in question was the greatest at. One could call Boston Celtics legend Bill Russell the winning G.O.A.T., Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James the longevity G.O.A.T., and perhaps Chicago Bulls icon Michael Jordan the composite G.O.A.T. just as a few examples.
The folks over at our sister site Hoops Hype recently put together their own G.O.A.T. based on the best five-year stretch of a player’s career. Using their own Global Rating Metric, H/H’s Frank Urbina and Raul Barrigon rate all the best players in league history.
