Although many players could be considered the GOAT, Michael Jordan, LeBron James or Kobe Bryant are among those most often cited in this debate.
If the GOAT debate did not make so much noise in the past, it is today one of the most recurring topics of dispute among fans and analysts.
And while many agreed that Michael Jordan was the greatest player of all time in the 1990s, the emergence of iconic basketball players such as Kobe Bryant or LeBron James some time later reignited this debate.
This discussion is all the more talked about at the moment, with the numerous records broken by the King.
This is the same reason why some people consider him the GOAT.
Others are more seduced by the exploits of the Black Mamba or continue to think that MJ is the only one legitimately entitled to this honorary title.
And yet, former coach George Karl has a completely different opinion on the matter.
LeBron, Jordan and Kobe snubbed in the GOAT debate by George Karl!
I’ve been around basketball for 50 years and have seen many incredible athletes play, including Connie Hawkins, Julius Erving, Michael Jordan, Tim Duncan, Shaquille O’Neal, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Kobe Bryant and LBJ.
But at this point, I think Nikola Jokic might be the best player I’ve ever seen play basketball.
What if the GOAT was from now on Nikola Jokic, who beats the competition in the colors of Denver?
Currently, the Serb walks on water. After winning two consecutive MVP titles, last season he managed to take the Nuggets to the first coronation in their history.
He is trying to repeat this feat for a back-to-back this year, while he also has a good chance of being elected MVP for the third time. Despite everything, the majority of Internet users do not agree with George Karl.
Jokic is historically good, and he will be in the top 10 if he wins another title. But clearly, even Hall of Famer coaches are not immune to the culture of the moment.
Forget Michael Jordan, LeBron James and Kobe Bryant, because no one would ever reach the level of Nikola Jokic in George Karl history.
But despite his experience, there are very few fans who share the same opinion as the former coach.
