CBS Releases New Greatest 50 NBA Players of All Time (20 Years Later)

[Swagnificent]

Could say the same about Jordan(Paxson,Kerr shots) or Kobe(Fisher,Horry shots)

Duncan had 1 or 2 finals where he didn't even win finals mvp.

And how could you fault Lebron if he losses to this GS team ? They have two MVP winners and 4 of the top 20 players in the league

He's apparently the second greatest player of all-time. That should be good enough to beat Kevin Durant and overrated media creation Steph Curry.

Stop with this bullshyt of trying to build up the Warriors to protect LeBron's legacy if he loses. This Warriors team would get worked by the 2008 Celtics. By the early 2000 Lakers. By the 90s Bulls. Etc.

They are not an unbeatable team. They are just a team with one great player (Durant) and a good supporting cast.

LeBron has a better sidekick in Kyrie than Durant has in Steph.

The Cavs should win the championship if LeBron is as great as the media says he is.

[MJ Truth]

not sure about Dwight Howard in the top 50.

and Curry is not a top 20 player yet. Having him at 18 is a rush.

Having Curry that high is just to get people talking. Same shyt ESPN did last year.

 

[MJ Truth]

Not when he still hasn't seen the conference finals. Pip nearly took the Bulls to the Finals by himself.

No he didn't. Stop with the bullshyt. Y'all just keep perpetuating this. The Bulls almost made the CONFERENCE Finals that year.

lemme get this in before the Kobe stans come in here & have mental breakdowns...

Bron #2 fukk boys

 

[MJ Truth]

It's funny that LeBron is 2 miracle shots from other players away from having only 1 ring and being 1-6 in the finals. Ray Allen saved his legacy in 2013. Then Kyrie saved him last year.

Will be funny to see what happens when he loses the next 2 finals to San Antonio and Golden State. That would make him 3-6 in NBA Finals.

Pathetic posting.

Chris Paul and Steve Nash are so overrated. What the fukk. Chris Paul literally has done nothing in this league smh.

 

[stepbackj34spud]

This list had Pierce at 38.. espn had him at 45.. I feel like he's top 30 easily. Nash and Paul weren't better than Pierce FOH. My point is tho, they did the original list too early. You have some all time great players who I grew up watching who can't say they are among the 50est greatest ever. Bullshyt.

Just because Lebron is the 2nd greatest player doesn't mean he can do it alone.Teams win championships,not individuals.

The 2008 celtics had 3 hall of famers plus Rondo and Perkins.And no,I don't believe GS is unbeatable,but they're still the favorites.So it won't be a upset if the warriors beat the Cavs.

Lol at GS only having 1 great player.Durant's so-called supporting cast won 140 games over the last two seasons(70 win average) Curry is a 2-time mvp winner.He averaged 30 ppg last season and is averaging 25 ppg over his last 370 games(5 seasons).Durant's supporting cast won 70 games without him,how many games would Lebron's supporting cast win ?....40 games ?

How is Kyrie a better sidekick than Curry when Kyrie can't even make the playoffs without Lebron ?

That's my bad...should have explained. I don't think Indy stood a chance against Chicago if they faced each other that year (kind of like whoever survived a Spurs/Lakers series was likely to steamroll whoever was left in the West during the 2000s).

 

[Randoug]

These nikkas put Curry in front of Zeke,D Wade, KD AND CHARLES BARKLEY


THAT'S SOME HIGH LEVEL

They didn't do the 50 greatest list "too early". By your criteria you can never do a top 50 list because there'll always be more players entering who somebody "grew up watching".
