The Over and Back Classic NBA podcast continues its offseason series looking at the NBA’s 50 Greatest Players in history, with a look at the career and Top 50 candidacy of Seattle Supersonics legend Gary Payton.

Jason Mann talks with Jared Dubin (@JADubin5) of Hardwood Paroxysm about the Top 50 case for Payton. They discuss his incredible defense and versatility, where he rates among elite all-time point guards, comparisons to Clyde Frazier, and his refusal to play for Jason’s 2004-05 Hawks. Jared also shares a couple of great Payton stories, including one involving a case of Gatorade and a Range Rover.
