You can tell how much SAS loves having MadDogg on the show. He’s always laughing and having a good time. Makes the show much better

They need to make Mad Dog permanent. The only person that keeps Stephen A in check and doesn’t defer to him..

[GerardoTostado]

Kobe’s has some of the absolute best scoring performances of all time in an era where some teams still averaged 90 points a game. Averaged 30+ 7 and 7 in the playoffs as a 21 year old

I gotta say, I respect Mad Dog's list. I don't fully agree, but I respect it.

[kristanfernando]

Mad dog is so funny, he and Stephen A have great chemistry, he should be permanent on First Take

[DaOtisElevator]

There’s no world where Pete is a better scorer than KD

[lavonhodges]

Mad dog yelling “LET ME FINISH” took me out 🤣🤣🤣

[alancyr]

Putting Maravich at #5 is a stretch but he seems to always be overlooked, largely for not being on winning teams. He invented showtime BEFORE Magic Johnson.

[kengy]

Props to his selection of Pete Maravich. He was a WALKING BUCKET.

[kingdruskii]

Love this take this generation needs to be reminded of their scoring impact at a time who barely relied on three pointers

[peatlow]

Thank you MadDog for including the whole history of the game. Not just 1992 and on. Some don't know the game had talent before the 90's.

[Iceman-xejo]

I can’t believe KD isn’t on that list. He is lethal. The most skilled scorer I have ever seen and I’ve seen them all. Inside, outside, mid range, long range, anyway you want it he will give it to you. Most big time scorers get their buckets by going to the line and he KD doesn’t need to.

[Bonzosbadgeholder]

Mad Dog needs to be on with Steve every day. They are a great duo like Michael and Scottie.

[billpap.]

Pete Maravich was great but not ALL time great, his prime was very short. KD & Lebron deserve to be on that list 100%.

[richardporter]

Jordan, Kobe, Lebron, & KD most versatile scores of all time. All them centers did was post up & dunk FOH

[Vincentdeoliveira]

Stephen A Smith & Mad Dog is the perfect duo in sports show.

[Crowmusic]

i get that KD hasn’t put up gigantic numbers like some of these guys but at some point being the most flawless offensive weapon on the court has to matter. nobody got handles, shoots, finishes, passes, FT, all while being 7 foot, KD gotta be a top 5 scorer bro

[outofnaija]

My list will be Jordan, Durant, Chamberlain, Kobe and Lebron. I see these guys are the most unstoppable scorers that play winning basketball. Curry is great but more stoppable than these guys in my opinion.

[arronjohnsepulvidaloveria]

I was surprised that Kevin Durant was not in his list for the greatest scorers ever

[colinforsecs]

Pete played 26 games for the Celtics in 79, in those games he averaged about 17 minutes a game, 11.4 points a game and was shooting 75% from 3 point line. He would probably shoot a 3 every other game, he wasn't jacking them up, but still that's impressive.
