You have access to every player that started for Phil Jackson and Gregg Popovich at the earliest age they were available. So if you pick David Robinson it has to be the 1997 version, or Karl Malone the 2003 edition.

Duncan is a lock top 10, but who else makes the cut?

Assuming this means you get the portion of the careers that Pop/Phil was able to coach:

Top 4 are irrefutatable/obvious in whatever order you put them:

1. Jordan
2. Shaq
3. Duncan
4. Kobe

5. Going with Kawhi Leonard - no I'm not kidding
6. Scottie - full prime and then some
7. Tough choice, but I'm gonna go with Pau due to the age factor
8. Fossil Admiral - better than Pau of course, but in a draft age matters

9/10/11/12: some combination of Odom, Ginobili, Parker and Rodman. Grant and maybe Horry honorable mentions.

At LEAST 3 Spurs IMO.

2. Duncan
3. Shaq/Kobe (honestly can't decide)
5. Admiral
6. Scottie
7. Ginobili
8. Pau
9. Parker
10. Rodman

6-4. Not that lopsided.

Hmmm, good question.

As other mentioned the top 4 are easy (In whatever order you decide). Then it becomes a bit more difficult 5 through 10. Here's my list though:

1) MJ
2) Shaq
3) Duncan
4) Kobe
5) Pippen
6) David Robinson - 21.6/10.6/2.7 with 2.6 blocks and a steal in 97-98. Thats probably better than any version of Pau/Parker/Ginobili
7) Kawhi Leanoard - Likely to move up this list
8) Pau Gasol
9) Tony Parker
10) Manu Ginobili

Notable ommissions: Dennis Rodman, Lamarcus Aldridge, Lamar Odom, Horace Grant, Mark Madsen

Nowhere near as lopsided as I thought it would be

It's definitely lopsided when four of the top five are Phil's players. And those players are Jordan, Shaq, Kobe, and Pippen through each of their Primes. Ridiculously lopsided actually

Manu Ginobili being so disrespected in this thread thus far being listed after 7th, easily 7th over Gasol, 8th would be Tony Parker 9th Pau 10th Kawhi.

Kawhi over Pippen is just wrong as well.

Top 6 looks right for most but I go Pip over Big Dave due to Dave only having maybe 3 more very good yrs left after his '97 version.

Jordan
Shaq
Duncan
Kobe
Pippen
Admiral

Ultimately all opinion though and comes down to who guys liked best.

Manu is the best Spur outside of Duncan and D-Rob. Stop disrespecting the man.
The rest of the list outside those 3, is Jordan, Kobe, Shaq, Pippen, Parker, Leonard and Pau. So 5 guys for each coach. Phil's list is more top heavy though.
