There are many famous sayings that have been passed down in the NBA over the years. Among them, "If you have Joe, choose Joe, if you don't have Joe, choose Shark." I guess many friends have heard this sentence. This sentence means that when the team drafts, if Jordan is available, they will choose Jordan, and if Jordan is not available, they will choose O'Neal. If you choose one of these two, it will be a guarantee of winning the championship. One is the number one player in history, and the other is the strongest center in history. Whichever team wins them will definitely be happy. So if the NBA is great and there is neither Jordan nor O'Neal, who should be selected in the draft? The editor himself believes that there are 4 people who are most qualified to be robbed.
The first one is Kobe. Kobe is indeed not the No. 1 pick, and he is not the strongest shooting guard in history, but he is the strongest shooting guard since Jordan. Kobe knows all the offensive tricks, giving him unlimited firepower, and he can easily average 30 points per game. Kobe was not only an offensive madman, but also a great player on the defensive end. He was selected as the first defense 9 times in his career. Counting Kobe, only 4 people in history have done so. Kobe's gorgeous style of play has attracted countless fans, and his influence spans the world. Even if Kobe Bryant does not mean 100 championships, his influence and commercial value are enough for the team to make a lot of money.
No. 2 is the No. 1 pick that made the league crazy? Tim Duncan, who is also known as the strongest No. 1 pick in history. There are NBA champions every year, but there are still only a few who become talented. Duncan played for the Spurs for 19 years, and he brought 5 championships to the team. He is the cornerstone of a perfect team, he can integrate with any type of teammates, and he is also famous in history for his selflessness. Duncan's stability also leads the way, averaging 19+12 per game in 2019. His loyalty, stability, and team leadership abilities are enough to drive the team crazy. If you want your team to win at least 3 championships, you must choose Duncan. With him, you will never be disappointed. Popovich is called a god and GDP dominates the league. All of this is because of Duncan!
The third place is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. He is definitely the center with the most honors. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has played in the NBA for 20 years, and his peak period was very long. The oldest FMVP in the NBA is held by him at the age of 38. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is a perfect combination of offense and defense. He is not "scientific" at all. He is the mainstay on the court, and his presence is close to perfect. 6 championships, 6 MVPs, and 4 block titles. If Kareem Abdul-Jabbar entered the NBA in the 1990s, he would be the first of the "four major centers". With such a super insider, the team's guarantee is the finals!
Finally, there is the James we are familiar with. He combines all the advantages of a player into one. In terms of team leadership ability, he has entered the finals for 8 consecutive years. In terms of career data, averaging 27 7 7 per game, few people in history are more comprehensive than him. Whether it is health or dominance on both offense and defense, James is the strongest presence at the small forward position. Not to mention commercial value, the 35-year-old James already has a business empire. The team with him will not only be infinitely close to winning the championship, but the team will also make a lot of money from it. Having James is a guarantee of attention and box office, and he is also expected to win a key championship. Who wouldn't want such a perfect player?
