NLSC Your source for basketball video games.
From courtside of the virtual hardwood, it’s Episode #609 of the NLSC Podcast!
During a recent podcast appearance, former NBA coach turned analyst Stan Van Gundy made some eyebrow-raising claims: specifically, that Nikola Jokic is the GOAT, Luka Doncic is the best offensive player of all-time, and that the best 20 players in NBA history have all played within the last 20 years. This week, we join the community in responding to these hot takes, as well as speculate on the motivations behind making them. There’s actually an interesting parallel with the basketball gaming community here! We also discuss a few other popular but nevertheless erroneous historical narratives that are about to complicate the GOAT debate, once fans and talking heads alike notice the contradictions.

SVG is a joke as a commentator and a former coach, and GM. He literally destroyed the Pistons when he was there. His trades and drafting were a disaster.
Completely agreed!
