John Stockton
List ain't al that bad...only player really out of place is LeBron.
D-Wade
[QUOTE=DirtySanchez]List ain't al that bad...only player really out of place is LeBron.[/QUOTE]
Bron is easily top 15, sure he gets a boost because he just came off a title and FMVP ... I'd put him slightly ahead of Jerry West, maybe even Oscar. #12 or #13 is the correct spot for him.
Karl Malone is the most overrated of the players currently listed.
I got him at # 16 or 15 currently but moving up fast.
A ring next year for him would bump him to 11 IMO.
D-wade
Edit: Changed My Vote To Willis Reed
Allen Iverson
How about Patrick Ewing or Bob Mcadoo
[QUOTE=pauk]oh really? a ring next year would bump him into the top 10 knocking hakeem out of the way without any discussion.
Anyways my vote is Dwyane Wade.[/QUOTE]
How the hell would he knock off Hakeem when Hakeem has 2 RINGS, and all of them are more impressive.
lmao at no discussion, because you're right, Lebron won't have a discussion for being over Hakeem.
Wade
[QUOTE=iamgine]How about Patrick Ewing or [b]Bob Mcadoo[/b][/QUOTE]
How did this guy only make 2 All-NBA Teams?
EDIT: Forgot that there was only 1st and 2nd all-nba teams all the way up to 1987-88.

That and the center position was pretty much loaded with the likes of Kareem, Cowens, Walton, and Moses.
McAdoo also had a short prime, but a peak very much comparable to peak Kareem.

I am not really sure if you are serious? If Lebron gets another ring or has another similar year this is how his career will look like compared to Hakeem at the end of the upcoming season:
.................LEBRON............HAKEEM.......
MVP..............3-4.....................1............
FMVP..............2......................2............
CHAMP............2......................2...........
ROTY.............Yes...................No..........
DPOY..............0......................2...........
1st All-NBA......7......................6...........
1st All-Def.......5......................5...........
All-Star...........9.....................12...........
All-Star MVP....2.......................0...........
PPG...............28....................22..........
RPG................7.....................11..........
APG................7......................2..........
SPG................2......................2..........
BPG................1......................3..........
PER Rating.....27.2.................23.6........
Not to mention Lebron was the best player in the NBA for much longer than Hakeem, who was the best player in the NBA 2 times and won those 2 championships mostly because the actual best player in the NBA was on vacation.... Lebron didnt need that handicap, he chewed of everybodies superman capes to become the best and become this successful...
:confusedshrug:
What criteria could you POSSIBLY go after to devaluate such a more accomplished career?
I know Lebrons success in every facit of the game and so quickly in such a short time comes like a shocker to many of you, but you need to deal with it...

there would be a lot of discussing about that lol. another ring puts him in the conversation of Oscar/West/Moses Malone who respectively are 11,12,13 (in real life not ish). So another ring would at best get him the 11th slot and at worst the 13th. Currently he is somewhere around 14-16 and has a similar career to Julius Erving (yes i'm including ABA because there was two professional leagues back then).
I agree though that if he gets another MVP and ring, that he would automatically bump Hakeem. Ultimately I believe Bron will end up in the 6-8 slot, but if he just starts racking up rings galore or a bunch of mvp's then he will get that top 5 slot.
its hard to pick out of wade and stockton because Wade has that super duper star quality but stockton has stamped his mark on the league more firmly then wade.
Ima go with Stockton!!!!!
think about it like this, if wade retired today due to knees or something, this guy would not be remembered as much 30 years from now. On the other hand stockton would still be the all-time leader in assists and steals and that will be remembered. Wade should definitely get that 30th spot though.

That counts as a vote for Stockton.
BTW, Wade shouldn't even sniff top 50.
So far, don't like Garnett at 16( I'd put him closer to 18-21 spot), Dirk should be around 25th, not 22nd. Mikan's tough to rank because of how far back he played, so I guess you'd have to look at accomplishments. I'd put Pippen around 29th or 30th.
At first I didn't like Lebron at 11, and I think he catches alot of flack for the 2011 finals( on some level justified). But you can't deny that he's already got a career's worth of accomplishments in 9 seasons, or his overall dominance.
Anyways, I'm going to go with D-Wade at #29. Though that seems a bit low for some reason.....

I don't know how you put him over Stockton, Ewing, or Drexler.
DWade
OT - Who is the favorite for DPOY this season? Is it likely Dwight again (personally I don't have a problem with Chandler winning last season, but my vote was for KG)
Wade.
Ewing
[QUOTE=Raz]I don't know how you put him over Stockton, Ewing, or Drexler.[/QUOTE]
There's many picks I don't know about. Anyways, it's a random list by random people. Who cares? Ask me tomorrow and I'll probably say Stockton should be #29.
And out of interest, why do you think he definitely falls behind Drexler? Most people consider Jordan, Kobe and West the top 3 shooting guards. Do you believe that Clyde is 4th?
