Episode Synopsis

The Athletic's NBA Deputy Editor, Rob Peterson, joins Press Pause (from chilly central Connecticut!) to discuss The Basketball 100—the definitive ranking of the 100 greatest NBA players of all time—and his role in bringing this ambitious 737-page book to life. Rob played point guard on this effort, collaborating with The Athletic's award-winning team of writers and analysts, including veteran columnists David Aldridge and John Hollinger. In this episode, he trades shots with Mark W. Wright, dives into the art of the ranking, explains why Derrick Rose (yes, D-Rose!) didn't make the cut, defends Draymond Green's inclusion, and much, much more.
