401 NBA Open Court - 50 Greatest & the Next 10

short person Oda, loved this hello Bob, okay, I lost my vote when he dropped this old guy, okay, Jason Kidd unanimously, I'm going with Gary. paid, I received yes, he is Gary Pence or Jason or Gary Payton also in discussion it is unanimous know if it is not yet low not only is it honest it is not obvious Lynn I go with you I go with Gary Payton let me start I need hands or nods or anything without painting, no kid Jay Yuri, that's where we added Gary Payton unanimously, he's on my you're on my list now, some others are yours, I'm going with Jason, I'm going with Jason Kidd, okay? so he's so Payton, no you just finished unanimously, so just what weapon Durant is not my Kevin Durant, yeah, tell everyone Ming, first ball, hold it tight, first of all, let me tell you that Kevin Durant, a young me, it goes further now that someone I'm going to get hit, no, no, we have what my love, I know, but if we get four guys for the 10th spot, then we'll narrow it down.

Kevin Durant, Kevin Durant, oh man, you're right, okay, tell me, oh wow, no, your hand. up, eh, I'm like the coach, I want to hear more names. I mean, you know, Kevin Durant is very gamer, yeah, he's just on his own, don't even consider hot guys right now just as a way because then we'll say okay, look, we only have one place with you, so Kevin Durant is on the list. Well, now we will continue. Grant Hill, no more. and I just want to say about Grant Hill, we talked about Jason Kidd when Grant Hill was healthy to me, he was Jason Grant Hill was the first LeBron James, he was also a three-pointer, he was a reasonable adult, I think because Noah Grant Grant was fantastic.

Oh. full of bran okay 30 pounds heavier I'm talking oh you're triple double dominant dominating the game playing defense the guy did everything that's true but every year I see him at a big night event and no one did That before, well, Scott, a hole. bulls arena no Oh boy unanimous Jason Kidd this again will be for the last one it's not unanimous though okay it's not unanimous in Jason Kidd's lungs in the morning it's not unanimous Hall of Famer Steve Nash so let's talk about Steve Nash a while ago Steve Nash no, no, uh-uh, he has kryptonite, so people, what Payton was not unanimous, right, okay, we only have one, not Peyton, okay, there is no address on record for me, do you want someone who has bought animation?

We have Domini um Paul Pierce trying to get poked. You have to put Paul Pierce I think we have football Pierce Dennis Johnson on this list waiting for us, Dwayne Wade, how many did he get? How many browns? You know, we only have these here, isn't it way down? No, Machado will do it, yes. That wasn't you, I decided on a me for three guards and it was Ray Allen, we didn't talk, Ray Allen is with him now, but where are we? We gotta revisit Dwyane Wade, I mean we got a revisit, join me, visit for a well, how's it going?

Well, I'm cool with T Mac and Penny Dwayne, yeah, yeah, and someday I'll go with his analogy. I'm looking, I'm looking at his fingers, man, I mean, win, win, count now, here's an oh yeah, oh yeah. wait guys what happens when you got here he brought me here for Shaq he got his room and you're going to go get one when you think it's okay he made you bergüzar or dwayne cold to do this but he was out 35 I don't know ? that - I don't know him better - guys I'm with, I just have one question, if it was a five year period, you knew you had to go with this guy, he went for a championship, I think it's better than his championships because he still I give those championships on Dead, I mean, you can take it however you want, but they have the most dominant big guy in the game.

Well, what's up with the magic with Kareem? They're the same thing and James Worthy and like you said. five stars, so yeah, I mean, if that's the criteria, I mean you know you have music, yeah, um, so I mean, I mean your way to me, you know how to react, are we unanimous on the D mode, I think D weight? It should be that I already surpassed Penny and Fanuc, he absolutely absolutely won over that one, how about it? How about Vince Carter? If he wanted some championships, he would have had them, so that means no, you'll see if he'll keep talking about bishops. it would be Bill, what about the bad, it would be fine, so long, so we've been Bill, a great player and not having a championship doesn't really make you a great player, no, a great player, no, not having a championship, a great player. having championships, I have to take the great player to the west, okay, and otherwise, because they are the same, let's talk about a great player, I will say, let's see where Charles Reggie, they never won championships, okay, but what a great cape, it's okay, now great players, okay, they lost in the Western Conference Finals every year: you took a dormant Phoenix franchise to the finals, okay, on their back, lose to Chicago, make it to the Western Conference Finals NBA.

Eastern Conference Finals they lose to you and Kobe and they lose to Jordan in the Eastern Conference Finals and then they lose to. those guys, I mean, in Detroit, they mention that, they repeat that name, Detroit, no, we would have won, that's all I have to say, but you know, those three guys elevate it, that makes them great players because they were the carriers of some of these boys. talks about they made it but they were in the car some guys were just traveling in the car with you so you can't you can't talk about the big players and the same can't be read in India so that makes them Great because they got there but the Derby is hairy but the land carries dollars and they got there and they won so that's the reason why Turkey we were able to who is on those lawyers in that Uehara pile in Sacramento and is it possible that they all will we never be alive? help me, I'll do what I mean, oh yes, I'm totally convinced why wouldn't we discuss seeing the net over the earth, no, a year they went and did it right.

It would have been like now, I'll go see what, then. everything goes with D way over the penny, yeah, yeah, yeah, how about you wait? How's the injury? How about Paul? Probably just as well, that's why I think Paul has such a high regard for this highly underrated maroon guard. I don't like the count they have. cars, every American needs to have a Paul Pierce honorable mention in a blonde and purple mention, okay, so this is how I have it now, this is how I have it, wait, hit it to discard the truth. that's the truth yeah so I got it with 11 names here oh you gotta take lucam we slipped off the list I think down with you through Vince Carter we went we already went through Nash I mean I got you you develop. complaining Parker ex Tony Parker fonathon aside laughing Tony Parker is not there yet, I make a name with his name, she throws, it's me, Howard, hey girls, hey mondo, after we do this band show without making a video with YouTube, everyone needs to quit.

This will tear them from our city Oh, who's really going to help? It's really okay, so we should take a break and then come back with this list. He was our Chris Paul. It sounds like in our wonderful crystal idea how about Chris while we go to rest? while we go to break Chris Paul is going to break we will be back guilty bird Jackson why do you think they screwed you? Everyone knows you as a better player. I will say that they screwed me in 80, 89 and 90. I was the first team. All-nba and after that I was voted second team behind Stockton every year and I kicked all of you guys, you all thought I was hitting high, yeah I had the best record in the league, you know, it's all good, ya that we return before looking at the list. we have a motion on the floor to consider dennis johnson, the late great dennis johnson, will we get a unanimous vote on DJ?

I'm going to accept everything, honorable mention, I wasn't mature honorable, I didn't see it. there, but I was a kid when I was in Seattle, it was even better than if someone met a bad boy, he's a bad boy, a great creator, a great shooter, leader, I mean, hold that list when he hunts, when he chooses, you put you on the list, I mean, oh yeah, him and Gus Williams. I like this here. Gus Williams, one of the best back

court

s ever talked about. Speaking of list, here's our list Tim Duncan yes Kobe Bryant yes LeBron James yes Allen Iverson yes Kevin Garnett yes Dirk Nowitzki yes Dominique Wilkins yes Bob McAdoo yes Chris Webber yes yes that's 9 and now we have Kevin Durant and D, look, I think it's food, no disrespect to who gets 10th, but I think it's Kevin Durant, Chris Webber, no. going in order, you're not going to oh, I thought we were going, no, there's no order, right, there's no Kevin Durant, it should be, it should be like I'm fighting for the final 5, yeah, but you all share, it's just that That's what they said before.

Championships take the guy who killed the guy with the championships, what if I say hit me? No, it's not like those others. They show up, we have 11 names, Rent and D-wave, we have 11 names and 10 places, so someone on that list is. I'm going to have to step aside, yeah, so you guys, we have 11 anyway. I go with Kevin around Galu's word and he does it. Kevin Durant makes it through the D form. Yes, he was saying I will since they are still in the league. and you're talking about what they're doing and what they've done in this 10-year period and still in league one they're not out, you know, still in league one they've won three championships, three championships, three championships. others a zero I go with because when it matters I go with the guy who questioned Oh, what's the difference between Wien Kevin Durant and Bob McAdoo Bob McAdoo got a ring, he didn't beat the Lakers 2-1, that's okay?

He still has what I say, all those years he was leading the league and scoring. His teens weren't great, they weren't, but he did it for almost every member, but what I'm saying is that he was MVP the rest of the year. the rest is drugs, he won, he won the MVP and Bob nog, they want all those scoring titles in Buffalo and I don't hate Bob, but I'm saying his resume will be the same, right? I agree. I'm saying Bob McAdoo got out. on the Lakers bench, I'm just trying to make his point like Kevin Durant is doing exactly.

I bet if you look at the numbers given the red numbers, he's probably better than Bob McAdoo, so for me I have to give Kevin a little bit. credit, we can't have a little, you know, here it is, here's the credit, but I'm just saying he was winning camping for me, it's even harder, metal look, I was hard for me when he left, Bob didn't win his ship Sheppard, went to the The lake ended well, so those years he was waiting when one, all, I mean, all those when he won the MVP and was leading Lee again scored, they won a championship in Buffalo, so Reggie and I were Reading my mind because this is what I think.

This is the only fair thing we can do: We were trying to narrow this down to the

next

10. I think we have a list of 11 right here and when you leave the office today, you leave the studio today with your list of the 11 you can. cross out whoever you want and then you'll have 10 and you at home can do the same and you can decide because I mean, how do you exclude one of these guys at this point unless you think no, that's not a bad idea, the good one idea we should have is how do we adapt tenure or whatever good they can do, okay, okay, why? because we start to show that we surpass who we left at 50, okay, and we left the guys, so someone will stay.

Nobody's coming out, so we'll go over the list one last time. I'm just going to do this, we'll go through the list. I'll give you a hug, come here Einstein, okay, humiliate me, but get off the list because these heads because I had to be unanimous and now it's not unanimous on web viewing, that means K T and D Wade join the list of all ten of us, Edna, that's mine and you know what I think we had another great idea, actually, web. I am sir, sing, thank you. for phone that's all for this edition of the

open

report I hope you enjoyed it I'm glad we're at the end I say I feel a lot better about everything I did I have to put up with the bullies we're all thinking you guys took this bullet, but yes, yes, I didn't mean to say it staring, you bought when you took the bullet, yes, I agree with you, Reggie, we should be as one, we are already dead, we already hit or take off the net, no, he chose. that Matt got it, I didn't think they were going to pick him up, Nick, your mother is very modest.
