TOP 10 MONDAY: TOP TEN NBA PLAYERS OF ALL TIME.DOSE LeBRON MAKE THELIST?

     With every sport we always rank the top 10 of all time. For some reason when it comes to the NBA the list is a little harder to make. With the NBA compared to the rest of the sports leagues being pretty young and many people seeing there own way to rank the players. Right now im gonna rank my top 10 NBA players of all time......




10.) Bill Russell 
    The greatest champion of all time and arguably the greatest defensive center of all time. Bill Russell was dominate in his era. He was the leader of all those great Boston Celitc teams coach Red Auerbach. Russell won 11 championships in 13 seasons. Think about how today repeating is a hard thing to do and just think about 11 in 13 years. He even won as a player coach. His dominance is so respected that the NBA Finals MVP award is named after him.


9.) Shaquille O'Neal /
  Shaquille O'Neal better know as Shaq was the most dominate center in our generation. When Shaq was in his prime and in shape Shaq was a force none can stop. Shaq was a leader who always made his teams better. Made the playoffs every season but his 1st and even that year he led his Magic team to a 41-41 record. Shaq is a four time champion three with the Lakers and one with the Heat. He is a former rookie of the year, MVP in 2000, Olympic gold medalist,  three time all star game MVP,and a  three time finals MVP. Shaq has done it all in his career.


8.) Oscar Robertson 
  The man who I feel is one of if the not the most underrated player of all time. Oscar was the original Mr. Triple double. He was able to play three different postions he can pass, shoot, and get rebounds. He was able to do it all. The big O was great. Former MVP and Finals champion. Oscar Robertson never gets the respect he deserves. When you see great player get triple doubles and set records for them you still see the Big Os name right up there. That talks to the greatness of Oscar Robertson


7.) Kobe Bryant 
   Say what you want about Kobe but he deserves to be up here. Kobe is a 5 time champion and former MVP. Kobe has won championships with two different set of core teammates. He is the most clutch player we have seen since Michael Jordan, He is also the closest thing we have seen to him. Kobe is someone who expects to be great. He is also somone that isnt happy unless he is holding up the trophy at the end of the year.


6.) Tim Duncan 
   The greatest Power Foward of all time Tim Duncans greatness is some times over looked. He dosent do everything flashy he dose it the right way. He plays in San Antonio which isnt the biggest market. Yet Dancan has won 4 championships and is right up there with some of the greatest defenders we have ever seen. He is one of the few players in history to have a triple double in the clinching game of a NBA finals. Duncan is great nothing else you can say.


5.) Larry Bird 
   Believe it or not the Celtics werent always winning championships aand the NBA wasnt always popular. Thanks to Larry Bird both those things changed in the 80s. Larry helped spark the Celtics franchise and bring them back to there winning ways by bringing back multipla championships and MVPs to Boston. His rivalry with Magic Johnson also help make the game popular again. Larry is also one of the great shooters and trash talkers of our time. He will always be a legend in Boston which is saying a lot

4.) Kareem Abdul Jabbar 
   The man with the most un stoppable shot in NBA history the sky hook. Kareem has done so much in his career. Starting out with the Bucks and winning with them. Then going down to the Lakers and winning with them some more. This former 6 time MVP has done so much, but his most impressive acomplishment is that he played center for 20 years. Which for a big man is saying a lot. Just ask Yao Ming.


3.) Wilt Chamberlain 
   If you scored a 100 points in a NBA game your pretty game. Wilt was dominate. The numbers he would put up would be insane. He averaged 50 points in a season. Just think about that 50 points. He also led the league in assist at one point which for a center is saying something. If it wasnt for Bill Russell and those great Celtic teams Wilt would of won a lot more and could maybe have 10 rings.

2.) Magic Johnson 
   The greatest point guard ever and leader of the show time Lakers Magic was the right man in the right place at the right time. Magic can do so many things with the basketball he made everyone around him better. He had great court vision and passing ability. Mixed that with his size and speed you have something. He ever started at center in his rookie year game 7 of the NBA finals against the 76ers. Him along with Larry Bird brought basketball back to the forefront in the 80s. He won five Championships in his career before it had to sadly end because of the HIV virus. Non the less Magic is and forever will be one of the greatest of all time.


1.) Michael Jordan 
   Who else did you think it would be. The greatest winner scorer competitor you need it he was great at it. Michael was the most clutch player ever. He was a 6 NBA Finals winner and Finals MVP. Led the Bulls to two three peats. From now until the end of time, Jordan’s impact will be felt throughout the basketball world. There will never be another player like him. He took the sport to another level. He had it all. He can score pass defend anything you told him to do he would do it. He was gonna do what ever it takes to win. Michael Jordan is the greatest ever and for anyone to compare any other player to him is a otter joke.
