The GOAT of every sport
[edit]Greatest player in every sport
[edit]There are many athletes in the world that play all different types of sports. Some are better then others, and some are better than anyone who has ever played their sport.
What determines who is the best at their sport
[edit]Statistics
[edit]The universal way to measure the best player in a sport is stats. Stats are a solid way to measure a players influence on the game and their team. This is the most popular method since numbers are hardly ever wrong. Although the level of play has to be at its highest for stats to matter. One problem with stats is that it is so broad. There are stats for every single play a player does while playing which could cause confusion.
Attitude
[edit]In this case attitude comes into play, some of the greatest players did not have the highest or best stats, but their attitude changed the game which made them iconic. For example Steph Curry changed the game of basketball simply by being an elite shooter from far distances. Since he was dominating teams started shooting from further ranges as well.
Influence
[edit]A players influence to the fans can really influence their great status. Great players bring more attention towards the sport due to their talent and hard work. This causes people to spread the sport through word of mouth that can get more eyes on the sport.
