He has to be top 10.I'm always curious to see where people rank Duncan. Seems like he gets underrated a lot. 5x champ, 2x MVP, 3x FMVP, 10x All NBA 1st team, 8x All-NBA 1st Defensive Team, 15x All Star, and spent 16 seasons being a 20/10 at 55% from the field, and quietly leading his team to one 60-win season after another.
1- Wilt
2- Magic
3- Kareem
4- Kobe
5- Shaq
6- West
7- Baylor
8- Worthy

Thoughts on this Sherbros?

Dafuq is Rose doing there?1. Lebron James
2. Michael Jordan
3. Julius Erving (Dr J)
4. Kobe Bryant
5.Kareem
6. Magic
7. Wilt
8. Larry Bird
9. Allen Irverson
10. Derrick Rose
He's my favorite player. I'd have put him at number 1 lmaoDafuq is Rose doing there?
when the gameis over, who wins?Chamberlain over Bill Russell?
There's more to the game then points bro...
Kobe could actually be #2 on the list overall. Easily in terms of skill but also legacy and hardware. Nobody really compares to Kobe except Jordan tbh. I feel as though I'm just giving more praise to the older players than they deserve when it comes to them vs Kobe.
In reality and it sucks I'm going to do this, but Kareem was carried for quite a few years by Magic. Still amazing player, definitely top 5 still, but nobody carried Kobe. Stats don't lie, handling the ball in final possessions don't lie and out of the few random D-Fish and Horry big shots, it was always Kobe, never Shaq or Gasol.
Magic is honestly the only one I can say who can beat out Kobe for #2. It was always Magic vs Bird and Magic vs Jordan. He held his own and then some vs those guys. Magic has the hardware and averaged in the POs over 50%FG and a double double in APG 12.3 and PPG 19.5. It's tough to say, but most everyone agrees that Kobe is the greatest Laker ever so it edges Kobe out over Magic for the #2 spot (Greatest Laker ever > any other team).
Which leaves Bill Rustle. 11 rings is nice, but this is a era that was very very green. It's like comparing the Red Coats formation, marching attacks with Muskets from the American Revolutionary War to modern day Guerrilla Warfare with M4s and thermal sights. Bill's a beast, he was a beast in his era, but that era is the baby era of the beautiful game. Sorry, he's not doing what he did then vs 5'8 white guys who have blowslaugh and kirin level athleticism in todays age, in the 00's, in the 90's or even the 80's.

5. Wilt
6. Bird
7. Shaq
8. O-Rob
9. Rustle
10. Duncan
Also, Hakeem and LolBron are still battling it out for 11 and 12. Another Finals loss by LolBron might keep him out of the top 15 though because then it's just getting ridiculous. Also, Steff Curry is hot on the trails of top 25.
Celtics dominated the head to head in that era.when the gameis over, who wins?
yea because they scored more pointsCeltics dominated the head to head in that era.
No way, Allen Iverson should be on there too!Chamberlain over Bill Russell?
There's more to the game then points bro...
Pistol Pete
Isaiah Thomas
Karl Malone
Curry
Dirk Novitzki
John Stockton
Dr. J
Wilkins
Drexler
Steve Nash
There's your second team. If curry stays the same for 2-3 more years, he might make my top 10.
Got me thereyea because they scored more points
We talking about practice now? Not a game. Practice.No way, Allen Iverson should be on there too!
