It was always going to be like that. LeBron winning the championship means ISH doesn't have to spend the offseason being trolled by Kobe fans... unfortunately, it also means LeBron fans will be all over the place trying to push their agenda.
LeBron is definitely top 10 now, and critically appears to be moving up the list rather than down, but let's not get ahead of ourselves shall we?

I'm not the one who put him ahead of the likes of Duncan, Bird and Shaq.
But I really don't see how putting him ahead of Hakeem would be blasphemy now. Hakeem was always the top 10 player who was going to fall out of it, whether to James or someone else. He was incredibly dominant for two seasons, but he wasn't considered the best player in the league as consistently as LeBron.

2. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
3. Bill Russell
4. Wilt Chamberlain
5. Magic Johnson
6. LeBron James
7. Larry Bird
Below this are arguable between Duncan/Hakeem/Shaq/Moses/Kobe.
So why isn't Russell #1, and where is Horry on your list?

Re: New Official NBA GOAT List
At worst:
1: MJ
2: Russell
3: Kareem
4: Magic
5: Wilt
6-7: Duncan/Shaq
8: Bird
9: LeBron
10: Hakeem
11: Kobe
I might place LeBron above Bird when I think about it.

Honestly LeBron is better than the #2 and #3 above him, but if we’re considering the totality of career accomplishments also, then I guess you can rank him as low as #4 or #5. Kobe was officially kicked out of the top 10 as of yesterday. Maybe you can argue he sneaks into #10 in place of Hakeem, but he’s no higher than that for sure. He’s either #10 or #11.

I don't get picked last at the park anymore
Re: New Official NBA GOAT List
I've never understood "official GOAT lists." For me, I just have a top few guys who I believe are interchangeable based on one's criteria.
Wilt
Jordan
Kareem
Russell
Magic
I don't like putting anyone on my "inter-changeables" until they have made it to the Hall of Fame (incase of any late career comebacks ala Jordan and Cousy.)
For me Wilt takes number one but I recognize the lack of reliability and validity of any GOAT ranking.
