Give your answer to this question below!
I would prolly put Earl “the pearl-Jesus” monroe at 10, but thats just me.
To think that Kobe Bryant is not even in your honorable mention list had led to me believe that you must only watch fantasy basketball instead of living in the real world.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Larry Bird
Magic Johnson
Dominique Wilkins
Julius Erving
Jerry West
Wilt Chamberlain
Bill Russell
Oscar Robertson
Michael Jordan
These are in no particular order, except the first and last ones.
Others:
Kobe
Shaq
Connie Hawkins
Isaiah Thomas
Earl “The Pearl” Monroe
I can’t really think of any others.
Michael Jordan: This name had to feature in my list of top 10 NBA players of all time, forget Magic, Kobe and Lebron. Micheal Jordan was the most amazing player in the history of basketball. Every time Jordan came to the field he defied gravity with his trademark Nike Airs basketball shoes. He was one of the most decorated and celebrated player in the history of his game.
