The case for
  • Career volume among the very best ever — #7 all-time in points.
  • 2x All-NBN 1st Team: recognised as the best at SG in his era, repeatedly.
  • Won it all in 2027 (Memphis Grizzlies) — the winning-culture test.
  • Rate stats hold up too: RPG in the 96th percentile at SG — this isn't only accumulation.
  • 19 seasons at this level is its own argument for durability.
The case against
  • Never an MVP. Every case here rests on accumulation and team honours rather than being the best player in the league.
  • Below the top fifth of his position in APG (54th) — a narrower player than the totals suggest.
  • The counting stats outrank the per-game ones in Points, Assists — longevity is doing a lot of the work.
Both cases are generated from the career record, not an opinion — they're there to argue with.
