The Top 100 Greatest NBA Players Of All Time According To ISH

[QUOTE=Stacey King]I'd like to see that list. Go ahead and type it out[/QUOTE]
Yes, put it in the shooting guards thread also.

someone should do this again :D

All in all, this list really isn't bad at all.

my biggest beef is David Robinson getting ranked too favorably, while I feel Chris Webber is tremendously underrated here. Prime Chris Webber could literally do it all (except win a championship, which he did all he could to achieve)

As for Dirk's ranking, I think he is right where he should be. Whether or not his various Mav's teams had good surrounding talent, he always gave them a chance to win.

good thread

lol no not rly, it came up in one of my google searches and i thought it was a great thread :oldlol:

would love to see a re-do of this list since many players that are up there have fallen off and some players have made a strong case to move further up the list

Bump

Kg at 37th when he was on his 31 .

That's example of how people can overrate a player with team success .

Now:

MJ
LeBron
Kareem
Russell
Shaq
Wilt
Bird
Magic
Duncan
Hakeem

creepy.. Samurai Swish mentioned this guy as good poster once, and this dude posts in the same style as Swish and seemingly has the same interests/dislikes.

I don't get the logic behind Russell and Wilt ahead of the four behind them.

Either your list is based on accomplishments in which case they are all ahead of Wilt (besides Hakeem), or it's based on a realistic idea of how good they are as individual players in which case Russell shouldn't be sniffing the top five (as much as I love him).

And at this point, Bird > Duncan is off. Duncan has 15 more All-NBA/All-D teams than Bird (it's really 17 bad as the All-NBA 3rd Team wasn't around in Bird's day I won't count it), and his prime #s are on par with Larry's (despite playing in a slower era and having to anchor a defense at the same time).

Bird's 11 Playoff runs: 24/6/10.5 on .551 TS%

Duncan's first 11: 24/12.5/3 on .560 TS%

Personally Shaq/Duncan/Hakeem are #5-7.

I pretty much just give Russell respect for pioneering/developing the game and particularly how defense is played. I think if i'm starting a team today I'd probably take a number of players over him (although i think he'd stll be a great player today)

Wilt is someone who'd probably translate to the better more dominant player today.

If I had to reorder by ability/ who id take in today's league:

MJ
LeBron
Kareem
Shaq
Wilt
Bird
Magic
Hakeem
Duncan
Russell

What's your complete list?
