they also played very different positions, you cherry picked stats, and those you used have nothing to do with
longevity.
13 years is a long career. i don't think anyone talking about who the GOAT is brings up longevity as an issue for Bird.

Michael Jordan played 13 w/the Bulls, Bird played 13. Both played long enough

They both played 13 years, yet MJ scored 11,000 more points, 1,000 more steals,

Its an issue when you're talking GOAT status. You can't be GOAT it you aren't

nobody is saying he's the actual GOAT. ribo said that he is his PERSONAL goat. big difference.

It's ok for him to be your personal GOAT. The case for him as GOAT statistically
