Let's get to the bottom of this, "best" vs "greatest" ever
What is the distinction between "best" and "greatest" ever?
I've seen these 2 words used interchangeably to describe Ronnie, for example Hendry and recently Higgins said he's the "best ever" but don't use the word "greatest", unless I'm wrong, I know Hendry has never used the word "greatest" to describe ROS, correct me wrong if Higgins has used it before but after the Players Champs win he said "best ever"
what is the distinction exactly? and if there is a difference what is it?
I don't get it if you're the "best ever" surely that's the same as "greatest ever" how can you be the best, if you aren't the greatest?
