As a man, if you're not a fakkit, or his relative, how the fukk can you root for this dude?![]()
Jerry West was a top 10 all-time player up until Kobe's 4th championship.
All-time he's right behind Jordan and Kobe in the SG ranks IMO. Numerous scoring records, 14x All-Star, 10x NBA 1st Team, 27/6/7 career averages, Finals MVP, championship, etc, etc. Just has a resume that Wade IMO, can't match right now.

how can u match a full body of work when someone has played 8 years longer than you have![]()
He's a top 25 player of all time and the 3rd best SG of All time.
There was no 3 point line when Jerry played imagine his #s if there was8 seasons? Jerry played from age 22 to 35. If you think Wade can make up the deficit in 5 seasons, you have a lot more faith in him than me.
Besides that West was considered the #1 SG in the league for the majority of his career. To me, that is a big deal in determining all-time rankings across eras. Kobe, Jordan, and West all had 10 or more NBA 1st teams.
Top 5 SGs Of The Modern Era 10th Season Stats
1) Kobe Bryant 35.4 pts, 5.3 rebs, 4.5 assts, and 1.8 stls
2) Allen Iverson 33.0 pts, 7.4 assts, 3.2 rebs, and 1.9 stls
3) Michael Jordan 26.9 pts, 6.9 rebs, 5.3 assts, and 1.8 stls (17 game season coming back from baseball)
4) Dwyane Wade 21.2 pts, 5.1 assts, 5.0 rebs, and 1.9 stls
5) Clyde Drexler 19.9 pts, 6.3 rebs, 5.7 assts, 1.9 stls
Random.....I know.....but just wanted to rub in the fact that Kobe is![]()
Because I don't have watch every Jerry West game to know that he was considered the top of his position for the majority of his career. It's almost impossible to compare players across eras but you can measure how successful they were in their own.You never seen him play.
How is it possible to compare someone you saw play to someone you didn't see?
Because I don't have watch every Jerry West game to know that he was considered the top of his position for the majority of his career. It's almost impossible to compare players across eras but you can measure how successful they were in their own.
And Jerry was more successful in his era than Wade is right now. For the majority of Wade's career, another player at his position was considered by most fans and media alike to be the better player. That never happened to Jordan, Kobe, or West.
Career wise, Wade is solidly below those three IMO. And I don't see how its going to get much better with Wade's play declining year over year since the '09 season.

'09 Wade would probably bully the hell out of a prime West no question. But that's not how you rank careers.
Arbitrarily arbitrary, aren't we?
That's why Jerry West is better than Wade? A no defense playing caucasoid who underachieved with stacked teams?

Wade hasn't had a better career than Jerry West period. And he was considered one of the best defensive players of his time.![]()
