olajuwan is the greastes center of all time

I won't be responding to everything my opponent has posted, but I'll rebute some of his main points. "This strategy gives another unfair advantage because Kareem never had a season in his career in which he didn't make the playoffs racking up 97 more playoff games than Hakeem. "I think his statement speaks on behalf of my side. Every team Kareem has been apart of has made the playoffs, while the same can't be said for Hakeem. The reason I don't use per 36 minute figures is because 1) Longevity is vital when discussing best ever. This isn't a best in his prime resolution, its best overall debate. Part of being the best ever is the ability to compete at a high level for as long as possible. 2) Since Kareem played for so long, even though he played at a high level throught his entire career, his statistics have obviously declined when he was in his late 30s, early 40s. Therefore, per 36 minute figures give an advantage to Hakeem. "Kareem always had a running mate, and those running mates just happened to be the 2 arguably best point guards to ever play in Magic and the big O. Not only that but he had Bob Dandridge and James Worthy who are some of the best SF/PF to play the game. "I'm gonna keep it real, Magic Johnson helped Kareem when he was late in his career. However, even in the games Magic missed due to injury/rest, Kareem was still able to flourish. Worthy never really elevated Kareem or the Lakers until later in the Showtime Era. Dandridge isn't as good as my opponent hypes him up to be. Definitly not one of the best SFs to ever play the game. Lets not forget Kareem played against harder competiton(Dr J/Moses Malone let 76ers, Larry Bird led Celtics), while Hakeem played in a weak Western Conference during the 90s. Plus Hakeem had one of the greatest SG's ever, Clyde Drexler, on one of his championship runs. "Some of the players you stated in your arguement played in the ABA while Jabbar was playing in the NBA. By the time these great players came out of the ABA they were over 30 and out of their primes so your satement about Jabbar competing against them was false"Jabbar played against all these players either in their prime, or right after their prime, which is still a time zone in which a player can still play at a high level. "Instead of posting opioionated websites i will put up videos of some of the greatest players to play the game talking about olajuwan"Yes, because players talking about their favorite players certainly isn't opinionated. "but olajuwans per game statistics in the regular season and playoffs (when everything counts) Kareem came up short and Hakeem flourished"My opponent has given no examples on how Kareem "came up short" in the playoffs. In conclusion, my opponent failed to address Kareem's better career numbers on almost every statistic, Kareem's better percentage of shots made, making him more efficient, Kareem's greater amount of apperances on the All-Star team, All-NBA team, and All-Defensive team(despite my opponent calling Hakeem the greatest defensive center ever). Kareem's better statistics, better career accomplishment totals, and greater praise from basketball analyists show Kareem was the better center, negating the resolution.
