@sar8303 ... Wilt chamberlain dominated in an nba of the same fashion. So did jerry west (whom is white) and bill russell. yet all 3 of those are considered top 10 all time and jerry in that matter is the LOGO. go to the cincinnati royals team with the big o on it and if you can tell me with a str8 face that they were as talented as the celtics or sixers then i will back down on my statement... since i KNOW they weren't you fail. oscar is a top 10 player ALL TIME a trip double is dominant period

[MrBlackmambajr]

this guy was the greatest and best basketball player that has and will every play the game.

Grew up watching O, read his book, and met him once. It's sad that he's held all those terrible things done and said to him over the years inside. His book is a sad read; I hate to see the ignorance of those times still hurting him today. The greatest all-around player I ever saw, but I feel so bad that all that ignorance is still hurting him today.

@futureicon23 Don't forget there was no 3 point line before. Imagine how many points he'd put up with it

[futureicon23]

And very few know he missed averaging a triple double AGAIN by missing 0.1 in his rebounds per game average during the 1963-64 season. Not only that but 12.5rpg during 1961-62 season... by a point guard? Really? What do you about this Dwight Howard?

@ryanr20091 Lol, what are you the Jordan police? Don't get bent out of shape if someone thinks a player of Oscars caliber is the greatest. Your a victim of the times and you don't even realize it. Just wait til kids 20 years from now start attacking your praise for Jordan by telling you you've just "disrespected" a newer NBA superstar of that time by putting primitive old Jordan above them. It will happen. Maybe then you'll realize, even having one GOAT is childish, when many have deserved it.

[ryanr20091]

@ryanr20091 well you have to be accurate . you just cant make a statement, without it being factual . jordan is the best deal with the reality . stop being a fan and be realistic. Dont disrespect jordan bt putting oscar above, when you never even seen oscar play a game

[dantheman9758]

@ryanr20091 I don't care about GOAT nonsense. I said get a life because your having a Kanye West moment. This is an Oscar Robertson video and in came a fan of the Big-O who payed him some respect and admiration and you ruin it with your poorly timed Jordan comment. I just thought you sounded like a moron for rudely barging in on someone else's moment of respect. Ergo I barged in on yours.

[ryanr20091]

@dantheman9758 just stating facts. how can you make an argument for a guy with only one ring vs micheal 6. also jordan had wayyyyyyyyy more mvps . you cant possibly make a case for oscar being goat. maybe kareem , but not oscar
