Thinking basketball podcast.

My name is Ben.

Welcome back to episode seven of our countdown of the greatest peaks of the 21st century.

We have to recap some stuff before we start today with what we're going to talk about.

I would like to start today's episode by recapping the best offensive players in this series thus far. Cody, how does that sound to you? Yeah,

let's do that. I'm trying to, I think I have my number one. Yeah, we'll see. Let's see how we

recap this. Yeah. Have you not been tracking this as we go through in your head? No, no, no, no, no. It's a lot

of vibes right now. It's kind of like

waiting till the end of the series and then once we have all of our discussions, because

here's the thing. Like, I have my thoughts. I see your thoughts. But when we have the

conversation, I have even more thoughts. So wait till the end of all that. Yes. Yes.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe the best offensive player we have encountered by my

valuations and by the discussion we had is Luca Donchich.

Yes.

Who we have at number 19.

Second to that, and not far behind, as we had a rich conversation about him him is James Harden. Yep. And as I said

during that show, if there weren't things that concerned me and have a repeated history of

occurring in the playoffs and as we wear into the playoffs and certain counters against him or his

lack of counters in the playoffs, I would have him as the best

offensive player of this series so far because in the regular season, he was just a marvel.

So those would be my top two. After that, I think it's Tracy McGrady, who we had at number 18.

I was going to say I'm interested. Because after McGrady, who we had at number 18. I was going to say I'm interested.
