post your top 10 greatest nba players of all time. some criteria to consider, in no particular order:

  • accolades and championships
  • pure basketball skills
  • statistics
  • iconic moments, games, series, playoff runs
  • intangibles (basketball iq, toughness, clutch play)

10 points will be awarded to your #1 player, 9 points to your #2 player, descending all the way down to 1 point to your #10 player. if a player happens to be absent from someone's list, that player will receive 0 points from said list and it will count towards their average

after everybody's list is submitted, i will rank all the players by their average score and we will determine the sports bar's top 10. this will only work with serious lists so anything deemed trolling will be ignored

Only count guys from the 80s forward (not gonna count wilt, Russell, big o)

Jordan
Kareem
Hakeem
Bird
Magic
Shaq
LeBron
Kobe
John stockton
Duncan

I added Stockton to be a wildcard, he's a toss up for me between Barkley, dirk, Malone, drexler, Robinson

Stockton was tough enough to compete in the 80s game of giants and his game would be enhanced in today's spacing and three and d

***my list above is in no particular order except Jordan 1 and Stockton 10 and LeBron above kobe
