The Over and Back Classic NBA Podcast returns with reaction to ESPN's recently-released #NBARank — a listing of the 100 greatest players in the NBA history. Jason and Rich discuss the #NBARank list, its criteria, notable placements for players and how their Top 100 compared with the 50 Greatest Players list we complied over the summer.
Side topics included the potential underrating of many players from the 50s and 60s and reasons why that may have occurred, players who made our 50 Greatest List but didn't appear in ESPN's Top 100 as well as discussions on many of the current players on their list including Steph Curry, Russell Westbrook, James Harden and Blake Griffin.
The show closes with a brief run down of Nylon Calculus' new player/season evaluation stat, HBox as well as Kevin Pelton's (ESPN) Championships Added.
