    If Gilbert feel that the championship is going through the finish line…then that mean all these wanna b called greats that didn’t finish the race don’t matter…because they did not win a ring so they did not finish the race…now what runner you consider that great…magic Mike bird kobe type great but they didn’t even finish the race

    Gil is great. Why he has those fools, Saggy D and Mick on his show is beyond me.

    Lol Gil funny. He’s simple. No rings but it don’t matter cause he know a lotta πŸ₯·πŸ½ s wit rings cant guard him So he can debate why rings don’t matter. But if he ended up focusing during his career and put a play together to win 1? Bro he’d defend that shi to the death and nobody would be able to tell him nun 🀣

    Brown for Giannis

    Brown scores 22 per game, turns the ball over constantly, can’t dribble, and SOMEHOW has the biggest most ridiculous contract in the NBA.

    I would hate to debate Gilbert Arenas on the big stage we need more of him

    They need to do something they were about to be eliminated by knicks even before Tatum got hurt so they need to do something they ain’t gonna get better

    It’s a hard definition. The ring talk is really for the top of the heap, and it’s got layers. Dwight Howard took an average team to the finals. Does his loss mean more because he had less? I gained more respect for LeBron losing to the Warriors after losing Kyrie in the Finals and Love before that. TMac himself between Yao Ming and Grant Hill constantly injured his best years. MJ and Pip stayed mostly healthy the whole run, Tim Duncan had a HC and front office in line for years, also got drafted to pair with David Robinson(THAT SEEMED RIGGED LIKE CP3 getting KOd to the Lakers). GS drafted their core 3.

    PS. Magic played ALL 5 POSITIONS in the Finals that rookie year….just saying Gill acting like Magic didn’t deliver INSTANTLY. BEFORE Worthy and WITHOUT the MVP. Rookie year All Star STARTER and FINALS MVP game 6 that year played center for Kareem 42pts 15 rebounds 7asst . Sometimes I really wonder should THAT MJ be that far back of the GOAT conversation πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

    This is why Gil is necessary! No Chill and I’m here for it! I’m sick of seeing nobodies like Windy and Ramona giving insights and their opinions when they’ve never ever played this game!

    Man Molly need to STFU and let people finish talking, My GAWD! I hear someone making good points then she comes in sounding like a mosquito cutting them off trying to add some unnecessary nuance to what they’re saying. Anyway good talks tho

    My goodness! Le”Whine”….sorry LeBron done cunningly manipulate yall into arguement about “greatness with or without enough championship Rings”🀣🀣🀣cos he’s sensing that he might NOT be able to win another one. Time’s ticking on him!😫 Tho He has the most points but…people are still not accepting him as the 🐐goat over MJ 🀣🀣Lol…Kareem held that stats for ’bout 20 years but, never once worried about any goat conversation! SMH… ‘Bron wanna be that (#23🐐) sooo baad!
