I think Moses Malone truly underrated. He can be easily overlooked for a 3-times MVP winner because he changed teams so many times.
Dr. J actually doesn't need that much explanation. Before goat lists became this much complicated, he had a case for the goat. Because he was on that level. His ABA situation makes harder to rank him but I believe he belongs to the top 10. When you look at his career #s, after ABA there is a dramatic fall in his #s but before Moses' arrival he was still able to make it to the NBA Finals. He carried the Sixers to the Finals 1977(which his first year in NBA), 1980 and 1982.

Dr. J has no case for GOAT if you saw him play. He was great, but he wasn't the caliber of player that should get GOAT consideration.
He is harder to rank because of his ABA days, but just in terms of his impact I'd take quite a few guys in this era alone over him. Kobe, Shaq, Duncan, Dirk, KG, Wade, and Lebron are all players I think were/are better than Dr. J. Not that all of those guys should rank higher than him now, but I think all of those guys were better players.
As for the thread:
1. MJ
2. Russell
3. Magic
4. Wilt
5. Kareem
6. Duncan
7. Bird
8. Shaq
9. Hakeem
10. Kobe
11. West
12. Oscar
13. Moses
14. Pettit
15. Dirk

Who are the next 5?
1st of all... Kobe is not an undisputed top 10 player... Kobes place is at best #9... #10-#11 makes more sense....
2nd of all... Kobe doesnt belong next to Jordan or Magic... i dont even care if that is a random list....
As far as giving the answer on topic:
#1 - Jordan
#2 - Wilt
#3 - Kareem
#4 - Russell
#5 - Magic
#6 - Bird
#7 - Shaq
#8 - Oscar
#9 - Tim Duncan
#10 - Hakeem
#11 - Kobe Bryant
#12 - Jerry West
#13 - Moses Malone
#14 - Karl Malone
#15 - Bob Pettit/Bob Cousy/Barkley/Lebron/Dirk all debatable

Hakeem & Oscar dispute that #9-#10 spot very very thoroughly...... as far those other 8 guys mentioned above, Kobe has no place... only a homer would place Kobe over:
Jordan
Kareem
Russell
Wilt
Magic
Bird
Shaq
Duncan

Charles Barkley
John Stockton

Why is my post getting laughed at, when people are including Dirk at no. 15 and that's all good?
KG > Dirk

lol Kobe and Duncan are interchangeable.
Oscar?? Do rings not matter anymore?
I'm guessing if he wins 1 more ring you'll put him at #9
