sure

here's my top five

1 - Michael Jordan
2 - Allen Iverson
3 - Isiah Thomas
4 - Kobe Bryant
5 - Stephen Curry

but I think Curry's really closing in on that 4 spot

that windmill 3 and corner fade he dropped in Saturday before last really wowed me

Jordan and Curry. Lebron just has a lot of muscle.

Really? I think one of the most alluring things about Kobe was that he wasn't really the most talented, but he was the most skilled.

Like I thought T-Mac and Vince Carter were more talented than Kobe, but Kobe was more skilled. Like even his trainer thought Kobe wasn't the most talented star out there. But he had the work ethic to overcome that. He taught him that talent doesn't mean a thing.

But it depends on how you gauge talent too. Like there's a difference between being a skilled, athletic or naturally be able to good at the game.

Anyway for me:
Wilt
Shaq
LeBron
MJ
David Robinson

Dr. J as an honorable mention.


Tim Duncan also started very late playing basketball too. He as naturally talented. I think he played at 16 or 17 or something.

LeBron is more talented than Wilt. I mean, he's a significantly better basketball player. Wilt might be better at track & field but I think we're talking about basketball.

You can be a better basketball player and not be more talented.

Lamar Odom had a lot of talent. He could've been better than what he was, but didn't. Same thing with Michael Beasley. Larry Johnson too. Penny had more talent than John Stockton, but he wasn't better.
