How would you rank these 3 guys?

[dankok8]

Nate Thurmond
Walt Bellamy
Willis Reed

Career-wise most people would take Reed first but in their primes how would you rank them in terms of who was the best player?

Daniel Orton????

Why is it cool all of a sudden to disrespect the old legends in NBA history? Do you f*gs realize that none of your fav players would be here without them? Sh!t is wild corny.

No disrespect to the old legends brah. Its just hard to put into context the game they played back then. Especially without video footage. I mean, without a 3pt line, with much different rules, and when most of the "pros" would be division 1 intrumural players at best in 2015, how can we even compare? Theyre simply irrelevant to today's game. Comparing modern basketball to the "basketball" they played back then is like comparing soccer to rugby; it's a different game with much different players and skill sets.

Yup. This is why James Naismith is the GOAT

Unseld played through the 79/80 season.

I don't know the proper ranking, the pics are to show they weren't smaller than today's bigs.
