HALLELUKA: Luka Clinches All-NBA 1st team. 4th in 5 years

From Kevin Pelton Mailbag (ESPN):

Still, the Taurasi comparison doesn't seem quite as apt statistically as the one to James for a couple of reasons.



Ultimately, Taurasi isn't considered the WNBA's GOAT (rightly or wrongly) primarily because of her statistical production. That's more a testament to Taurasi's history of big performances on the biggest stages, including three national championships at UConn and three WNBA titles with the Phoenix Mercury. Despite his impressive track record of big shots by age 22, Doncic has a long way to match that.

Wait what? Who considers LeBron the NBA GOAT. I´d say there are FAR more people that consider Taurasi the female GOAT than LeBron the male GOAT.

Btw Taurasi also won six Euro League titles, about a dozen European league titles/cups and multiple MVP honours in Europe. When it comes to female GOAT discussions I only hear two names: Taurasi and Cheryl Miller, who couldn´t play professionally, cause there were no leagues.
