My favorites thing when I get a new older player off the transfer list is seeing their extensive list of accolades and experience. I recently brought in Josef Baldacchino (48727667) whose player history shows 1 time MVP, 6 time all star, former U21 and National Team player.

It got me thinking about who is the best player in BB history, or even just the best you have ever seen?

Excited to see any responses!

Great question.

I think you will find that the NT coaches across time will best answer this question. Especially those NT coaches who coached their countries for extended periods of time and had the opportunity to see some outstanding monsters.

Like you, I look forward to hearing from some managers present and past on this topic.

Your first +1 for the question.

Yes, the only proper way to rank all time players is accolades. Cause ranking by skills, even if we knew them accurately, is too dependant on era in which they were trained and different builds.

during that time, China NT has absolutely dominated the NT field, winning all medals possible during his time and reaching many finals and also winning 2 World cup titles i believe


This Dinghui only won 1 WC, unless you count playing couple minutes in throwaway scrimmage, then it's 2. But B3 titles is more important for legacy, cause it's not dependant on NT strength

I checked the history and yeah, China NT in 50s was the most dominant team of modern BB. They won 3 WC's in span of 7 seasons. And they have multiple players who won all 3 of those titles (and some B3 trophies), just like Pelé in football :)

Here's the boy in all his glory ahahah
Although one could argue that during China's domination in the 50s the real MVP of those teams was Zheng Xiaozhuo (44026426) who was consistently China's top scorer in those seasons. His Palmares is slightly better in terms of National Titles, Cups and MVPs won, but he lacks the B3 trophies having just 1 to his name.

Here's Mr Xiaozhuo:

It would be fun to create a GOAT INDEX or something like that to see who's the most accomplished BB player ever.
Foe example these could be the parameters:

International Competitions

World Cup (NT / U21)
🥇 Gold: 10,000 pts
🥈 Silver: 7,000 pts
🥉 Bronze: 5,000 pts

European Championship
🥇 Gold: 7,000 pts
🥈 Silver: 5,000 pts
🥉 Bronze: 3,500 pts

American / Asian Championship
🥇 Gold: 5,000 pts
🥈 Silver: 3,500 pts
🥉 Bronze: 2,000 pts

African Championship
🥇 Gold: 2000 pts
🥈 Silver: 1,000 pts
🥉 Bronze: 500 pts

Club Level

BuzzerBeater Basketball Best (B3)
🏆 Winner: 10,000 pts
🥈 Finalist: 7,000 pts
🥉 Semi-Finalist: 5,000 pts
Quarters: 3,000 pts

Top Tier
Champion: 2,500 pts
Finalist: 1,500 pts
MVP: 500 pts

II Division
Champion: 700 pts
MVP: 150 pts

III Division
Champion: 300 pts
MVP: 100 pts

IV Division or lower
Champion: 100 pts
MVP: 50 pts

National Cup
Winner: 1,000 pts
Finalist: 700 pts

EXTRAS

100+ NT caps : +1,000 pts
5 MVP in top tier: +1,500 pts
3 consecutive B3 participations : +1,000 pts
All-time Leader for the NT in a category : +1,000 pts

Using these parameters Nan Dinghui's GOAT INDEX would be: 95'500
Meanwhile Zheng Xiaozhuo's GOAT INDEX would end up being: 89'550

So yeah Nan Dinghui is currently our goat ahah
Now, let the search for the most accomplished player on BB begin

Oh i know good old Amill, he grew up with one of my boys (Palmieri)
Skill wise he's beautiful but achievement wise he's not amazing cause Shohoku CB never won much
Amill's international career is definitely remarkable but his GOAT INDEX is just 46'600 (of which 40'500 are thanks to his NT achievements)

1st Player to reach +170 STH in the BB game 99,99% secure.

Amil is special he have 129 STH at 21 and stomp U21 and NT

In my team is to be difficult to pay 292.000$ of salary if i don't have a lot of money in the bank is for this reason that amil can't play in a big teams to play B3 finals or something. Bad economy for me.

My intention was do the best Spanish player in the history in his position.

He's training with all the staff full max (Palmieri the same) and at the age of 28 the player is do it.
