Crazy that Hakeem lost in the 1st round that many times, yet you have some people here listing him over LeBron on All-Time lists.

You might be referring to me. If so, then you should know I have two lists. One is for all-time greats that is dependent on a different rubric heavily dependent on peak/prime years and finals and elimination games and another all-time list, which is dependent on total career performance that is more reliant upon longevity, accolades, and total and per game statistics.

For the second kind, I have LeBron at #2 and Hakeem is way down that list. But while we're on the subject of 1st round losses, then I have repeated multiple times, when you consider what happened to the demise of the Rockets' would be dynasty, then it becomes apparent as to why he had that many 1st round exits. After all, Hakeem was a phenomenal playoff performer, and none of what happened to the Rockets should be pinned on him.

There was an entire thread about it.

T-mac x8 if he counts

Huge Kawhit fan here, but top 20? He only got his first FMVP on the backs of Pop/Duncan/Manu/Parker. He can only win if there's a system already built for him and he can piggy back. Even if there's a system, he might choke like he did this year
