Those are generally the Top-12...and then you can add Dr. J and Oscar, as well. Lebron is not there YET.

I had to show where I have LBJ though. Or else LBJ stans would rage

He certainly has the POTENTIAL to be there. But let's get real here...his CAREER pales in comparison to even West's at this point.

I took you off my ignore list to read this post. Now I realize why you were on it in the first place.

Let's have your criteria in selecting Bird over Wilt. Yes, he has a 3-2 edge in rings, playing on far more talented teams in his entire career...but after that Bird has virtually nothing on Wilt. Chamberlain went to more Finals, more Conference Finals, and played MUCH better in the playoffs AND Finals. Then, do you care to compare their regular season accomplishments? That would be truly laughable.

It must have just killed you to put Russell and Wilt in that list at all...

hard for me to rank them higher on my list due to competition when they played...and weren't there only 8 teams?
