Hall of Fame
I'll name a few for starters:
Kobe Bryant - I honestly have no idea why this dude is in the GOAT debate. He's won just 1 MVP in 20 seasons and placed in the top 2 only one other time besides the time he won. He wasn't even the best player on his team for half his career and his efficiency numbers and advanced stats are among the lowest compared to other players who are also mentioned among the top 10-15 all time. People say he's clutch but the stats show otherwise as Kobe's numbers actually dip during the finals and elimination games. “Best player since Jordan” when in reality he was never the undisputed best player in the world for even one season of his career. The fact that some ppl say he's the 1b to Jordan or is better than LeBron is laughable.
Bryce Harper - The media seems to view him like he's the second coming of Babe Ruth and he's always gotten more coverage than other players who are clearly better at baseball. He strikes out like every other AB, his averages/slashes are very mediocre and Philly played themselves giving Bryce this albatross contract for what 13 years (!!!!).
Phil Mickelson - It blows my mind that some ppl consider him Tiger's "rival." In tennis terms, Murray would probably have a much better claim of being part of the big four than Mickelson does at being Woods' rival imo. Dude's been the "best-man" his whole career, yet I’ve seen him ranked as a top 10 golfer of all time which is completely ludicrous and bottom line, if we're going peak for peak, they're at least 4-5 golfers right now that I'd choose over Phil.
Vince Carter - Sure he had awesome dunks in his hey-day but his career as a whole isn't nearly as glamourous as a lot of ppl think it is and overall, he's underachieved given his potential when he first broke through into the league.
The entire nextgen - we all know the story here
