Top-10 All-Time

[jlauber]

Just for the sake of controversy...

Here is my all-time Top-10 ... again:

1. Russell
2. Magic
3. Kareem
4. MJ
5. Wilt
6. Duncan
7. Shaq
8. Kobe
9. Oscar
10. Bird

Notables: D. Robinson, West, Hakeem, M. Malone, and Lebron.


Obviously I am basing MY picks on more than just individual brilliance. And, I would probably never argue with anyone would shifts them around. They were all great.

You'll get nor argument from me...except maybe on the Pippen pick. Pippen was a great player...probably top-25 in my book...but better than Oscar?

Oh, and Russell at #9?

and magic?

[PistolPete]

and magic?

Career cut too short in my honest opinion to put him in the top 10. I think we'd all have Magic in our top 5 had he not retired that early. A great player without a doubt, but I look at the overall statistics and longevity of career. He's just as good as those other players though.

[InspiredLebowski]

Magic played 12 years, not counting his little post retirement stint. That's too short to be in the top 10?

[EroticVanilla]

Magic and Bird both played 13 seasons, granted one of Magics seasons was 4 years after he first retired and he only played 32 games when he came back, so basically he played one season less then Bird and you have Bird at 4th, must have been a great season for Bird I guess.

Let me ask you this, from my top 10 list there, who would you take out to replace Magic with? Can't take out Oscar. Hard to take out West either. Magic's one of the 50 greatest players of all-time I'll give him that, but Magic had much more in the tank had he not gone out early.

[EroticVanilla]

Even though I assume your a Jazz fan (with the pistol pete screen name) Karl Malone should be moved for Magic, most people don't think Malones even the top Pf let alone top 10 player of all time.

[cookiemonster]

take out kobe easily.
