Also Baron Davis made it past the 1st round a few times is he better than McGrady too?
Baron is no Melo bro plus baron was never 2nd place in Mvp voting and was never a scoring champ. T mac had good players too man like Yao.

Wilkins got disrespected in 96... there is no way he should have been snubbed off the top 50

Wow no Kidd or Nash? This would never happen, but if they're basically doing top 60, then some of the original 50 should go off the list.

Just watched the segment. They had to settle on Wade? He has a top 15 peak all time and they had to think hard and long about it?

Basically all the guys on the panel besides Thomas Barkley and Smith played against Wade. They know more than us.

After the first 3, it's really not numerical rank.

with God-given ass
Re: Open Court: NBA 50 Greatest & The Next 10
You can tell by the way they reacted that the true consensus was:
Duncan
Kobe
LeBron
Dirk
AI
Garnett
Wilkins
McAdoo
So that's the 8.
The problem is that the criteria is all over the place. Guys like Zeke put more of an emphasis on winning rings. But how does that weigh against a player who carried a franchise, while ending up ringless? The example was McAdoo who had the personal accolades, but he didn't win until he joined the Lakers as a 6th man. Is that so much better than, say, Barkley taking Phoenix to the Finals on his back and losing the Bulls? The other was Reggie vs Ray. Ray didn't carry a franchise as much as Reggie did. Ray has the rings, however as a 2nd, 3rd, 6th man type of option. Which one is greater?
Then there's overall talent and peak of the players. Shaq lobbied for McGrady and Penny with that as his support. Grant Hill is another name for that argument. Bill Walton is the example of that which made the 50 greatest.
Which criteria definitively makes one greater?
