Derrick Rose pretty good, huh? I wonder if he will be the next Kobe. Never be like Mike - no one is - but maybe the next Kobe?

...never be another Kobe.

Nah, never be another Jordan, Bird and Johnson - the three greatest in history - noted in ESPN's greatest 50 of the last century. Yeah, you could put Russel, Chamberlin and Abdul Jabaar on that list right behind the aforementioned.

Kobe will knock some of those guys out of the top 10 when it's all said and done. Id put Kareem ahead of Magic and Bird. And Russell is not top 10 IMO.

Hmmmm. No. You are obviously a Lakers homer, so picking Kareem ahead of Bird and Johnson maybe shouldn't surprise me. ESPN rated the top three as Jordan, Johnson, and Bird, respectively.

As far as Kobe, he's a legend in his own right, but he ain't up there with those three ^

Why would putting Kareem ahead of Magic make me a homer?

6x champ
6x MVP
19x all star
11x all defense
Most points...ever.
3x NCAA champ.
Arguably the greatest college player ever.

Kareem eclipses everybody but Jordan IMO.

Magic is my favourite player after Kobe and D-Fish. There is no homerism in putting Kareem above them.

8. Duncan9. Olajuwan are so far from the logo its funny you better you tube the great j west are something... again an era thing j west played in the none 3pt era and with the lack of no hops played big vs some of the greats of all time theres a reason he is the logo no one could guard j west and just think of some of the guards he played against...

Reputation defines my self-worth!
I can't agree with top 10 greatest NBA lists that include guys who have zero championships (Malone), just as I can't agree with top 10 greatest NBA lists that omit guys who have 11 rings (Russell). The total number of rings isn't the defining factor for ranking players, but it's akin to putting Dan Marino as a top 10 all time player, or leaving Marciano out of the top 10 all time heavyweights.

1. Jordan
2. Magic
3. Robertson
4. Russell
5. Chamberlain
6. Bird
7. Kareem
8. Shaq
9. Duncan
10. Bryant
