Another ball forum has Elgin Baylor ranked #33 All-Time
And the five players right in front of him:
28. Walt Frazier
29. Rick Barry
30. John Havlicek
31. Chris Paul
32. Clyde Drexler

Havlicek/Barry look a little too low on that list, Baylor certainly way too low and CP3 certainly way too high.

What was the reasoning behind the selections ? Or was it just a vote without explanation ?

Frazier is the most underrated player ever, good to see him get a respectable ranking.

Elgin Baylor is without a shadow of a doubt better and greater than all of those guys... Even Havlicek, who's the "closest" one too him listed in the OP. Nobody from that time period would have ever ranked Havlicek above Baylor, let alone Frazier. Only revisionist historians who roll with "rings" arguments or die hard Celtics fans might argue otherwise.
And Chris Paul!? Chris ****ing Paul? Makes me sick. What a ****ing joke, what the heck has Chris Paul ever done to show he's half the player Baylor was? Chris Paul is more like Lenny Wilkins level ...not even in the same stratosphere as Baylor

That's a joke and an insult to Elgin Baylor who top 20-25 all-time not 33.

I was exaggerating when I said Paul is Lenny Wilkins status, he's a cut above Wilkins. But he's more than a couple cuts below Elgin Baylor. He should be closer to Lenny Wilkins on an all-time list than he is to Elgin Baylor. He should be well below Elgin Baylor.
