Top 50 NBA Players all-time according to SLAM

[OG Hack Wilson]

Cant say I argue too much with it. I dont think Id have Shaq so high on the list, but definetely still a top 10.

i say swap Bird and Shaq

and maybe move Hakeem up a bit

of course u would. lol Shaq can be at 9, but I dont see Bird being ahead of Magic IMO.  Really, i would have Bird and Magic be like 4a and 4b. I dont really have one above the other.

i could see Bird above Magic for sure

as many could see Magic above Bird.  The two are forever linked, like no other players in basketball history really. When you think of one, you immediately think of the other.

LOL hands down the worst list I have ever seen!! 

Shaq #4 is a joke  and how the fuck is Reggie Miller not on this list!!  And also LOL at Nash and Rodman being in the top 50 haha

I don't know if I have ever seen a worse list honestly

[you gon always be my latin queen bitch]

well rodman was a one a kind type of player but nash?
theres gotta be a few players better than him
some of them espn cats say that miller was a great...makin it seem like he was top 10

lol i dont know about worst.  The top 10 is pretty legit except for Shaq being so ridiculously high.  Once you get past 15, there will always be a lot of debate. I would have Miller on the list rather then Rodman. Nash tho, in all honesty...back to back MVPs is not so easy to do. He's a good PG and I think ESPN had him rated as one of the top 10 PG's of all time a few yrs ago.

Reggie isnt top 10 but he is easily top 50

Rodman is a legit pick


Nash over Pistol Pete....not so much

[Don Jacob]

i love shaq, but i wouldn't go so far as to put him number 4, wow. definitely not above magic , no no no.

[Antonio]

I stopped after Shaq #4.

[thisoneguy360]

LOL@ Nash being on the list

[OG Hack Wilson]

LOL@ Nash being on the list

i think of any euro player Dirk belongs on the list...i dont think i saw him on there

[Chamillitary Click]

where would some people on this board put Shaq if he was still a Laker.

[.:DaYg0sTyLz:.]

If it were Laker fans making the list it would go something like...

1. Kobe
2. Magic
3. Kareem
4. Shaq
5. Laker
6. Laker
7. Laker
8. Laker
9. Laker
10. Jordan....maybe...

[Don Jacob]

laker, magic, heat, sun, cav, shaq is my all time favorite player but i'm not secure with him being number 4 on all time greatest players list...yeah i think he could have dominated bill and wilt, and for that matter kareem as well, he cut his teeth in the biggest big man era so i have no problem with people saying he's the #4 #1 option ever. but greatness is something different.....


jordan was jordan........that's your number one dude of all time


but magic should be number #2......9 finals appearances, dude played all 5 positions and excelled at them all. he was the greatest player ever until jordan can into his own. and that's all that really ever has to be said, in shaq's blurb it said that he always made everyone around him better....which has always been true, but the person that always did that the best was magic...magic was the ultimate player....like i said you have to look to jordan for a greater player


wilt should be number 3.....plain and simple he's the stuff of legend.....like i said i'm pretty sure shaq would make him look like greg ostertag , but he was the original and when you think about greatness and NBA it start and ends with wilt

Bill Russel should be Number 4 on that list, like wilt when you think of greatness and NBA it starts back in the day with wilt and you turn the page and you have Bill and his ring collection.

then i think once you get to number 5 that's when you start having problems and debate trying to rank players. the first four.....that's pretty much set in stone until either shaq breaks some rebounding or scoring records or kobe  lebron, or timmy wins a significant amount of championship hardware before they retire.
