[Wade's Rings]

Mike of course is on there but who are the other 4?

Kareem? Bird? Magic? West? Duncan? Shaq? Hakeem?


Wilt?

[JT123]

I have Lebron at number 2. Wade is somewhere in the 50s...

I didn't ask about Wade or anyone lower than #5

You actually have a list going to the 50's?! Impressive stuff.
As for my playoff performers
1. MJ
2. Magic
3. Shaq
4. Bird
5. LeBron
It's pretty close between Bird and LeBron, but I gave Bird the nod based only on how I'm feeling right now

[Fallen Angel]

such a small sample to choose from.

Just give me:

Michael Jordan
Shaquille O'Neal
Magic Johnson
Larry Bird
Tim Duncan

Was just throwing some names out there, you don't have to only use the players I said.

So there's 40+ players better than 23/5/5/1.6/1.0 on 48% in 152 playoff games with 3 titles and a FMVP?

I'd love to see that list.

[TheMarkMadsen]

how does somebody who got swept 6 times make this list

[Fallen Angel]

I don't like judging players solely on the postseason, the sample size isn't large enough for me.

I just threw his name out there, I don't have a list.

This is strictly based on Post Season play, not All-Time rank.

Bill Russell has 24.9 rebounds, 16 points and 4.7 assists per game, in 165 games, with a few more titles, but no FMVPs.

Havlicek had some numbers in the late sixties and early seventies that were otherworldly, like 27.4, 8.4 and 6.4 in 72. He also won more than a handful of rings (literally).

But I forgot, when we say GOAT, that means greatest since 1980 or later, depending on when folks were born.

[Mr. Jabbar]

lebron has played in the worst conference ever, he shouldnt be mentioned here sans his finals. and we know how those went

Russell has no FMVPs because it didn't exist when he played, however they named the award after him because of his postseason play.

MJ, Russell, and Magic are top 3. Jerry West is probably top 5 as well.
