Here's a question that's certain to have strong opinions behind it, who is the Basketball GOAT? Of course, it's a hot topic, and many things play a crucial role in this discussion but first let's look at the most objective stats, which are the numbers.

His career average of 30 points per game was and has been the highest in all of NBA history. And then there's Lebron James, who stands with four NBA championships, four MVP awards, and the being the only player to have over 35,000 points, 9,000 rebounds, and 9,000 assists. Also, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, with his six NBA championships, six MVP awards, and the all-time leading scorer title, deserves a mention in the debate.
