He could have had an argument for real. The question is how to build around him. It's easier to build around Jokic. Embiid is a beast though

In the last 15 years or so, the old school top 10 list (likely some order of MJ, KAJ, Wilt, Russell, Magic, Bird, West, Hakeem, Oscar, Julius)

was invaded by LeBron, Shaq, Duncan, Kobe, and arguably now Curry. All with coulda woulda shouldas/meat left on the bone that could have improved or further solidified their perceived rankings.

Jokic, Giannis, and Luka also have more than enough years ahead of them to make strong top 10 cases by 2030. Each already with their own coulda/wouldas.

Ultimately most all-time talents can feel that way if they choose but no one tryna hear that ish. KD coulda/woulda been top 5 if certain ish went his way, but it is what it is.

He's not even the goat at trying to injure players on purpose. That title goes to Bruce Bowen.

Lol he wrote himself to french president Macron asking for that passport and of course at some point the french organization got tired of his b*tch-ass hesitating and told him you're in or you're out but make up your goddamn mind.

Talmbout the relation between France and Cameroon caused him frustration well why did you ask for french citizenship then :dead:

He'd have to have a Hakeem run which is unlikely
Yeah I don't think it happens either but it COULD. 2 straight titles and 2 Finals MVPS while dominating all his opponents could be done but at this point Philly will take a Conference Finals with him.
