Metta World Peace Ranks LeBron James As 9th Greatest Player Of All Time Until He Finishes His Career
Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

Metta World Peace, known for his ever-evolving opinions on basketball's greatest players, has once again adjusted his list of the top players of all time. In his latest ranking, he positions LeBron James at the 9th spot, deviating from his previous assertions that LeBron was the greatest of all time. 

In his current top ten, Metta World Peace presents a list dominated by iconic figures in NBA history:

Interestingly, Metta World Peace explicitly states that LeBron will eventually move up to the number one spot after his retirement, as he had done in previous rankings. 

Moreover, the puzzling aspect of this list is the decision to place Stephen Curry above LeBron, especially given that Curry is still an active player. 

Metta World Peace's previous lists have seen LeBron, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Tim Duncan, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar shuffled in various orders over time. World Peace's rankings continue to spark debate and showcase the subjective nature of determining the greatest basketball players of all time.

NBA Fans Are Done With Metta World Peace's Constant Changing GOAT List

NBA fans are growing weary of Metta World Peace's ever-changing rankings of the greatest basketball players of all time. The former NBA player has been notorious for frequently altering his list, with LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, and others shuffling positions. 

His recent placement of LeBron James at the 9th spot, along with unexpected choices like Stephen Curry surpassing LeBron, has left fans bewildered and frustrated.

One fan said that Metta is just drawing names out of a sorting hat.

A second fan questioned if Stephen Curry will be ahead of LeBron James if we use the same logic.

A third fan corrected him saying Jordan actually has 10 scoring titles.

A fourth fan added in saying any list without Larry Bird is highly questionable.

A fifth fan added in saying that we will be here for next week's list.

A sixth fan suggested Metta to put the pipe down.

A seventh fan added in saying what's the logic behind this.

Many find it challenging to take World Peace's rankings seriously, given the inconsistency in his assessments and the lack of clear criteria. As the debate over basketball's greatest intensifies, fans express a desire for more consistency and objectivity in Metta World Peace's assessments.

If Metta World Peace Wants To Be Taken Seriously, He Needs To Stop Changing Lists

Metta World Peace's constant reshuffling of his all-time NBA player rankings is starting to undermine his credibility as an analyst. While everyone is entitled to their opinions, the frequency with which World Peace changes his list, often contradicting his previous rankings, raises questions about the consistency and reliability of his assessments. 

If he aspires to be taken seriously in the world of broadcasting and analysis, he needs to establish a more stable and well-thought-out perspective on the greatest players in basketball history.

Fans appreciate authenticity and a well-reasoned viewpoint, but the rapid shifts in World Peace's rankings create confusion and diminish the impact of his opinions. While he is entitled to his own voice and opinions, maintaining a level of consistency in his analyses would undoubtedly enhance his credibility and foster a more engaging discourse with basketball enthusiasts. 

As World Peace continues to navigate his post-playing career involvement in the sport, demonstrating a thoughtful and steady approach to his all-time rankings could significantly bolster his reputation in the eyes of fans and fellow analysts alike.
