E3 2018: How Could They Have Known NBA 2K19 Would Be the 20th NBA 2K?

First. Lebron to the Sixers, come on y'all.

Lebron really is the GOAT of basketball. I've mostly lost all interest in sports but I came back for the playoffs this year and watching him... It was something I will never forget. Mad respect for this dude.

Excuse me? The GOAT huh...

@xanadu: I mean, you can slice it so many ways. To me his skills exceed all the greats, even MJ. But yes, he will end his career with 4-5 rings. Is pure skill enough to ignore the ring question? In my opinion, yeah. But I totally accept the other argument.

None of the greats would ever beat fuckin Golden State without a superteam...

@lumpofdeformity: but even the last part is arbitrary because Jordan & Pippen played in the era of hand checking. Imagine how many more points Jordan could put up if you couldnt touch him.

If I can't make a goat in the create-a-character I'm suing for false advertising.

@xanadu: I think everyone being better athletes due to sport science and general training practices wouldve cancelled it out it in the grand scheme. I want to reiterate though, we're really talking about crazy hypotheticals here and there's no way to definitively prove or disprove any of the GOAT arguments. I may be super wrong on this, I admit that :P That's the problem with the GOAT question :P

I like how 2K only lets LeBron on the cover when he's a free agent. Can't do it when he's in Cleveland.
