    Default ESPN disrespected Bill Russell the most

    I don't see many people talking about how badly they disrespected him, 7th? are you kidding me? just further proves it was a troll listing.

    Russell is #1 based on being responsible for winning. If that's the heaviest emphasis than he's #1, period.

    If there are other things that come into play, like dominance and other individual accolades yeah sure, Wilt KAJ and MJ are the next 3 guys that are also "GOAT" candidates for their own reasons. Russell is at WORST #4 on any all-time list that tries to be collective about accolades and dominance, behind only them in any reasonable opinion and possibly still as high as #1 depending on who you ask.

    This list was just designed to get people talking, nothing more. It was a list version of Stephen A. vs Skip.

    Yeah, this list will be re-evaluated years from now and it will be quickly disregarded.

    That's what's confusing the criteria has been inconsistent, it's like rings has mattered for certain players, but level of play matters for others (see Stephen Curry), but if winning means anything I can't see why someone like Russell would be listed at 7. It's a bullshit list.

    Any list that has Lebron at top three and isn't referencing biggest finals chokers is a joke for sure. Russell, Magic, Shaq all got totally crapped on for no reason. They got 1 & 2 absolutely correct though
