3. I think he's the

best of Beckham's generation. I wouldn't say of all time because Pele is on an entirely different level.

4. Maybe of his generation

It is kind of the same with people of my generation say that Jordan is the greatest, but my father's generation say Bill Russell. All a matter of perspective.

7. For basketball

I think it's really between Wilt and Jordan. If your looking at sheer individual domination Wilt is the best but a player that could take over games and defined the "modern Franchise Player" Jordan is the best.

5. I've heard such a sentiment from others

Maybe not "the greatest", but among the top handful. What a shame how his career ended.

6. Zidane was the best player I've ever seen

and I've played and watched soccer for 30 years. What makes you question Beckham's assessment (and sobriety)?
