The information in this article is based on the blogger "Bowen Loves to Play", the big guy used a relatively objective formula to rank all players in NBA history, formula: Total Score = Achievement Points + Contribution Points + Ability Points + Record Points（accomplishment + commitment + prime + legacy）。
First, let's explain the significance of each data in the above formula.
Accomplishment: The core basis for evaluating a star's historical status.
Achievement points = (Individual Honor Points + Best Team Points + Data Ranking Points + MVP Share Points) * Team Coefficient + Team Character Points + Lore Classic Points + Anniversary Points。The data can be explained in more detail, including two wins of the same honor will be multiplied by the convergence factor, and personal honors will also include MVP, FMVP, DPOY and even POW (Best of the Week).
Commitment score: Evaluate the player's total contribution to the game and the durability of his career
Formula: Contribution points = total GMSC points in the regular season + total GMSC points in the playoffs + total WS points in the regular season + total WS points in the playoffs。This data can prevent a lot of "role players" from rubbing team honors to improve their individual rankings, and this more negative player is the seven-time champion Hori, who is just a role player, and his contribution to the team is actually relatively small, and he can win so many championships is actually a big luck component.
Prime: Evaluates a player's peak ability value and ceiling height.
Formula: Ability Points = Regular Season Peak GMSC Points + Playoffs Peak GMSC Points + Regular Season Peak WS Points + Playoffs Peak WS Points. This is easier to understand, many players may have a long career but the peak height is not high enough, but what impresses fans will be the stars and seasons with higher peaks, such as Leonard in the 2019 playoffs, the season performance of this star is also the wealth of the league.
Legacy: A record of a star who has left a mark on the league's history.
This has both a single-game record and a cumulative record, like Chamberlain's 100 points per game and James' upcoming 40,000 points, which will be added as a record score.
First of all, let's take a look at the top 50 of the history calculated by the data, and state that this is the statistics as of the end of the 22-23 season.
Today we will first analyze the two superstars of the "GOAT Controversy", Jordan and James. Judging from the data, Jordan is second in regular season points and first in playoff points; James is first in regular season points and second in playoff points; Jordan's points total is the highest.
Jordan, as the god of basketball recognized by most people, is actually the most difficult superstar to find faults, whether it is honor, statistics, offensive and defensive performance, or even off-court factors, they can stand the test. Major achievements and averages per game in a 15-year career: 30 per game in a career1 point, 62 rebounds, 53 assists, 23 steals as well as 08 caps.
He was inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame in 2009, won the NBA regular season MVP 5 times, was crowned an NBA champion 6 times, won the NBA Finals MVP 6 times, won the scoring title 10 times, was selected as an All-Star 14 times, was selected to the All-Star Team 11 times, was selected as the All-Defensive Player of the Year 10 times, won the Defensive Player of the Year award 9 times, won the All-Star MVP 3 times, was named the All-Rookie + Rookie of the Year team in 1984, won the steal king 3 times, and won the Player of the Month 16 times. 25-time Player of the Week, 3-time Rookie of the Month, 2-time Olympic Gold Medalist, two-time All-Star Slam Dunk Contest winner, and was named to the NBA All-Time Team for 50 and 75 years after retiring.
NBA commissioner Adam Shaw was a guest on the podcast "The Dan Patrick Show" and praised Michael Jordan. Xiao Hua: Jordan, as a professional player, he is obligated to play. The average person spends his hard-earned money to watch him play, so even when he has a minor injury and can miss a game for a valid reason, Jordan will play with the injury because he doesn't want to disappoint the fans, his team, and himself. "For Jordan, the weight of the fans is very important, and he is not only there for the fans in the stadium, but also in front of the TV. There were even a couple of times when the team doctor didn't want him to play, but he still played with an injury. Xiao Hua said. This is also Jordan's performance outside of the court, he respects the fans, respects the way to get honors, although he has been defeated by the Pistons for consecutive years, Jordan still insists on training to improve himself, waiting for his teammates to improve and finally beat the Lakers to start his own path to godhood.
James's honor is also excellent, some fans say that "Jordan is the highest mountain, James is the longest river", this praise is not unreasonable, James has played to the 21st season so far, still maintains a very high level, and is currently about to complete his "411" project, and there are countless records.
James' career championships: 4; MVP: 4 times; FMVP: 4 times; AMVP: 3 times; Rookie of the Year: 1 time; Best Rookie First Formation: 1 time; Rookie of the Month: 6 times; Player of the Week: 67; Player of the Month: 40; Best burst: 13 times; Best second formation: 3 times; Best three: 3 times; Best defensive team: 5; Best Defensive Second Team: 1 time; Top scorer: 1 time; Assists: 1; Eastern Conference Champions: 9; Western Conference Championships: 1 time; All-Star: 19; All-Star Ticket King: 10 times.
James's honor as a "deputy GOAT" is actually indisputable, but James may be the most controversial superstar, its "black spot" may still be on the sidelines, and the most controversial is the Big Three of the national live broadcast group, this move has greatly changed the basketball perception of veteran stars, in order to win the championship, can you still play like this? In this regard, O'Neal said: If the huddle can be unscrupulous, then I will apply for Jordan's Bulls, so it is difficult to accept this behavior for many original stars. The other is that James generally chooses to transfer to teams with the sequelae of winning the championship, and the sequelae of winning the championship is actually the salary tension caused by the large contracts of many players after winning the championship, coupled with the decline in combat power caused by the aging of players, like the Cavaliers after 2016 and the Warriors after Durant's departure.
James is such a superstar with mixed reviews, I don't know what everyone thinks? In this issue, we will discuss this first, and then we will continue to analyze other stars to appreciate the masterpieces of the big guys.
