Yeah, what would your list look like?

Tony Hawk /MJ because of their overall impact to their respective cultures and making them both more popular than ever

Shane O’Neill / Kevin Durant since KD is just as versatile at scoring buckets as Shane is at getting tricks. They can pretty much do anything

Nyjah / Russell Westbrook and/or James Harden since they all do insane shit but are polarizing to fans because of their play style/personality

PRod / Lebron for being consummate professionals and at this stage in their careers they’re young legends paving the way for the next generation as they get older and wind down (but still killing at their age)

Ishod is Lebron

Your comparisons baffling . If anything Muska = Allen Iverson. And Tom Penny = Kawhi Leonard

Lennie Kirk - Ron Artest/Meta World Peace

Nice.

Johnny Layton - Greg Oden: If you know you know

Cory Kennedy - Kobe Bryant: Transcendent talent that always adds something new to their bag of tricks. Came in the game cocky as fuck and sometimes its annoying how manufactured their images are. We love them anyways because its must see when they are feeling it.

Ronnie Creager - Rod Strickland: Criminally underrated by the masses, but also a little overrated by the people who love talking about how underrated they are.

Mike Mo - Derron Williams: Early in their careers were seen as inevitable Hall of Fame talent then just kinda faded away.

Dill - Charles Barkley: Talking head thats 50% hilarious and 50% annoying as fuck and there's a generation of people that don't even realize how good they used to be. (Barkley's not as narcissistic though).

Johnny Layton one is hilarious. Could also be Eddy Curry in that case.

Dill is accurate.
