Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 948960, member: 652"] LOL, your nuts. Magic played with Kareem, Worthy, Scott. Oscar played with Wayne Embry, Jerry Lucas, Jack Twyman. Oscar played in an era where NBA teams were only allowed 2 African Americans per team until Red Auerbach fought the unofficial rule. Oscar played in an era where their 80 more rebounds per game because teams couldn't shoot and he was by far the most athletic player at the guard position. Oscar missed the playoffs 4 times and only won 2 playoff series in Cincinnati. Magic even after Kareem was washed up in 1988 dragged the Lakers to 58 wins per season till 1991 and 2 more NBA Finals in an NBA era that was the most competitive of all time because their were only 23 teams and teams were stacked with quality players. Magic Johnson IS SO MUCH BETTER than Oscar its laughable you say their is no way you can put Magic ahead of Oscar. Jerry West evolved to being better than Oscar during Oscar's time in Cincinnati and when he was traded to Milwaukee Oscar had to ride Kareem more than Magic ever had to win a title. Don't give these stupid triple double arguments. If you stuck Dwayne Wade into the NBA in 1961 with 8 teams and teams couldn't shoot and the league only had a handful of athletic players capable of defending Wade like it was for Oscar he would average a triple double. Oscar is a good player a top 10 all-timer, but he is NOT a top 4 all-time player with only 1 TITLE, and HE WON IT AS A 2ND BANANA. Oscar had decent teammates the problem he is was such a giant AHOLE to his teammates they self-destructed because of Oscar's attitude. Magic Johnson is the greatest PG of all-time and won 5 titles in the NBA's Golden Era. [/QUOTE]
