    Default Who are your top 10 rebounders in NBA History?

    My list in no order.

    Bill Russell
    Wilt Chamberlain
    Moses Malone
    Bill Walton (healthy)
    Kevin Garnett
    Dennis Rodman
    Charles Barkley
    Ben Wallace
    Dwight Howard
    Kevin Love

    This is the list off the top of my head. If I had to pick a player for #1 it would probably be Rodman. I think a healthy Bill Walton is an extremely underrated rebounder, he was probably the best defensive rebounder ever from the center position when he was healthy. You can argue Moses Malone is the best offensive rebounder this league has seen.

    Chamberlain is probably the best. After him it would be Rodman, Russell and Moses.

    It depends if you mean greatest rebounder or era-specific rebounders.....Some of those on your list are era-specific players that may be dropped for future players.

    The ones in bold are the players that I believe are Era-Specific players:

    Bill Russell - only successful in his era. Wasn't built very tough but a very good leader.

    Wilt Chamberlain
    Moses Malone
    Bill Walton- would not make a team today or at least the last 20 years of NBA history.

    Moses Malone
    Dennis Rodman- era-specific especially when a 6 feet 7 inch guy leads the league in rebounds.

    Charles Barkley- era-specific as well, no way a 6 feet 4 player leads the league in rebounds in the future. Tells you about the competition.

    Ben Wallace
    Dwight Howard
    Kevin Love

    Bob Pettit
    Dave Cowens
    Nate Thurmond
    Jerry Lucas
    Elvin Hayes

    Those also came to my head that went unnamed in the OP.

    Might take Hakeem, Robinson, Shaq, Duncan, or KG over some of them.

    The ones bolded are era-specific players/rebounders, in my opinion. They good for the era played in.

    The rest are good rebounders.

    Wow, I can't believe I forgot about Wes Unseld.

    Even along side Elvin Hayes for some seasons, still averaged a damn good amount of rebounds per game.
