Top 10 NBA Player List: #3 of all-time

[Inspect Her Deck]

Inspired by my man @BmoreGorilla who did this sort of thing for hip-hop MCs in The Booth. I thought I could apply that same concept to here since we're always discussing GOATs in the NBA and what have you, especially in light of LeBron furthering his legacy by winning a championship for Cleveland.

So we just did the threads to determine the no's. 7, 8, 9 & 10 in our top 10 OAT. So far, we got:

10. Kobe Bryant
9. Tim Duncan
8. Shaquille O'Neal
7. Larry Bird
6. Bill Russell
5. Wilt Chamberlain
4. Magic Johnson

only 3 players left...who will make it to the final round?

--------------------------------------------

I will now go about establishing an order from 3-1. Today we are voting for the 3rd greatest player of all-time. YOU GET ONE VOTE.

Remember, this is the 3rd best player, not the best player so vote on who you think is the worst from amongst this list effectively.

This poll will only be open for 72 hours so get your votes in ASAP.

Kinda like Kobe is a wannabe MJ, right?

But you know what's the best part?

Kobe couldn't overtake his predecessor. LeBron already has, and his career isn't over yet.

At least the coli was right about #9 being better than #10.



Far as this thread...I can't call it. Kareem might be the best ever.

I mean the media darling was called King before stepping foot on the court. Ofc he's going to win more MVPs in an award voted on by the media.


And being a favorite in only 2 out of 7 finals, best player on the planet

Kobe has had better teams than LeBron has ever had, yes that includes Miami. Furthermore, he's never faced Finals opposition as potent as LeBron has, at least in the last two years with Golden State. Maybe the 08 Celtics.

LeBron being favourite only twice is not a knock on Bron, it's a testament to what he's had to come up against.

What if MJ came up against a team in the Finals that had Bird, Magic and Drexler hypothetically? His team wouldn't be favourite. Would you knock him for it if he lost? Come on now...

Things are getting spooky.

Might be the worst poll of all time

Could have been worse? Kobe could have finished 9th or higher...
