The case for
  • 1x All-NBN 1st Team: recognised as the best at C in his era, repeatedly.
  • Won it all in 2024, 2025, 2026 (Philadelphia 76ers) — the winning-culture test.
  • Rate stats hold up too: PPG in the 99th percentile at C, APG in the 95th percentile at C, FP/g in the 98th percentile at C — this isn't only accumulation.
The case against
  • Never an MVP. Every case here rests on accumulation and team honours rather than being the best player in the league.
  • Rarely the consensus best at his position — 1x All-NBN 1st Team.
Both cases are generated from the career record, not an opinion — they're there to argue with.
