it's more like 1.magic johnson 2.jerry west 3.kareem abdul jabaar 4.kobe bryant 5.wilt chamberlain 6.larry bird 7.michael jordan 8.dwayne wade 9.shaquille oneal 10.ray allen
love what you did w/ wilt. if he's not the greatest he's 2nd i dgaf what anyone else has to say. i defy you to look up nba records...wilts got 70 of them...which is another record. 71 records!!!
Putting Bird in front of Russell and Kareem so horribly idiotic even a homer like Bill Simmons didn't do it. That impossibly stupid mistake makes this list completely worthless.
@Barachat First of all, really? There are better ways of expressing yourself.... second of all it depends on what you want. If you want scoring then of course you'd take Kareem first. If you want numbers in the 70's then yes, Wilt. But if you want the most confident shooter of all time, the most clutch player ever (barring possibly JWest and MJ) and THE smartest player ever to hit the hardwood, then take bird. He dominated everything and honestly struck fear into the greatest ever. I'd take Bird
@skarolaxify Not even! Are u joking? Wilt was playing against noobs and midgets, he was a giant in that era. Kareem had all around skill in every aspect of the game.
@tmsbsd Even at like 33 after blowing out his knee Chamberlain was able to block Kareem's skyhook. Head to head Kareem may have avg. more pts. but took more shots and didn't shoot as efficiently as Wilt. Wilt held Kareem way under his 56% career fg pct. They both belong in the discussion of greatest player but don't underestimate Wilt's awesome combination of endurance, strength, and speed. The guy was one of the greatest athletes in sports.
@Amick44 Anyone can make an argument for any player. Ur gonna sit here and say that Kareem doesn't belong up there on this list? Don't try and school me on basketball bro.
@tmsbsd As far as greatest player ever the 6 that belong in the discussion in NO PARTICULAR order are 1) Wilt Chamberlain 2) Lew Alcindor aka Kareem Abdul Jabbar 3) Bill Russell 4) Magic Johnson 5) Larry Bird 6) Michael Jordan KB is not even top 10. As far as shooting guards go 1A and 1B are Jordan and West and Kobe is a distant 3rd.
Respect to all, but in my opinion, Hakeem Olajuwon deserves to be in top 10. I respect Russell and Chamberlain, but if they play in 90-s, they wouldn't be so successful.
@2enchant Kid, Lebron can't be on that list because 1- he has never won a championchip even playing with 2 another all stars by his side, 2- Lebron has been playing in a era in wich defense is weaker in the NBA history and Lebron neeed to demonstrate lidership involving roll players. He is a very good player but to be compared to this 10 players he needs to improve a lot.
Your list is fantastic man. The only omission, in my opinion, thus being my opinion although I definitely respect your list, is DR. J. He would make my top ten, probably even my top five. Replace Kobe with Doc and it's a great list.
A fair list. My opinion is Wilt is the greatest "Athlete" to ever play in the NBA. He had an unlimited amount of talent. He would dominate both ends of the court even now. Jordan, although never the best player in the league was relentless and focused on winning. He had the ability to elevate his game in the playoffs like no one else. I always preferred Magic Johnson's game over Jordan's, but he's the only player I ever saw that seemed to have the ability to will himself to victory.
I wouldn't put Wilt, Russell, west, and Robertson in this list because because i dont think they played in a good enough era. My list would be 1. Michael Jordan 2. Larry Bird 3. Magic Johnson 4. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 5. Shaq 6. Kobe Bryant 7. Hakeem Olajuwon 8. John Stockton 9. Karl Malone 10. Julius Erving
you demagogues should shut the fuck up about the ABA shit. the guy who uploaded the video meant top players in American professional basketball. stop taking things literally
michael had nice teammates, wilt should be #1 be carried a bunch of fags and got 2 championships, bill russell had the best defense in the league should be #2 the magic j (dude he beat larry bird) then larry bird then MJ
@emotionaL2533 I agree with everything except the fact that everytime wilt went up against russel he came up short and thats why i would put bill at the top of the list you cant argue with 11 rings and i mean come on they even named the finals mvp after the man dont get me wrong wilt was without the doubt a dominating force who averaged i think 50 points in one season and still holds the record for most points in a game but bill is definitely my favorite player and should be labeled as the best
@BigTimePride against a bunch of unathletic and short centers. Whenever he played against russell, he got crushed. and russell was 4 inches shorter!! Wilt was good, but calling him the greatest ever is a joke. how the fuck can you saw someone the greatest who consistantly got beat by another player during his era??
@davidp899...Haha.,..Wilt was 36 and past his prime when he averaged over 20 rpg when going head to head against a prime, 25 year old Kareem Jabbar. Btw...He blocked Jabbar's skyhook 9 times in one game. Yeah, that same Jabbar 10 years later would dominate young, prime centers like Hakeem, Parish, Ewing etc...Here are a few guys Wilt faced... Bob Lanier, Walt Bellamy, Nate Thurmond, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Willis Reed, Wes Unseld, Artis Gilmore. Not bad huh? Russell won b/c he was on better teams.
@mcauliffe14 Wrong. He led his team to 2 championships. To to say he "never won anything" is silly. He also won 7 scoring titles. During those 7 seasons he averaged 39.47 ppg. MJ never averaged 39 in any season. Wilt led the league in rebounding 11 seasons. 23 rpg career. MJ career FG% 49. WIlt career FG% 54. Everyone knows he led the league in blocked shots many years though they didn't keep stats for that. WIlt even led the league in assists one year. A center leading the league in assists.
@reno93535 the league was so much easier to score on back then, now centers are not the leading scorers, wilt wouldve been clobered by dwight howard, shaq, n bynum
@fay4ever27 Shaq can't shoot outside of 5 feet and niether can Dwight or Bynum. Centers are not the leading scorers because these current centers aren't as good as previous ones, although Shaq was dominant and a monster scorer but is now past his prime. Shaq was much better than Dwight or Bynum, in scoring. Better than Bynum in rebounding. Rebounds vs Dwight about the same. Wilt at a lean 300 lbs was a combination of Shaq and Kareem. Much faster than Shaq. Stronger than Kareem.
@reno93535 half of wilts scoring ability came from the inside....the 3 second violation wasnt even applied at his time, n jordan invented the new basketball we see today.. he is the greatest!
@fay4ever27 dude stop looking up stats on google and then spitting them back to us like you know all this shit, the fact is wilt doesnt get the same credit as jordan and there are reasons for that..wilt was probably the most dominant player of his time but jordan truly took it to another level when it came to Winning..also the nba was a completely different league back then, all white boys, so it was easy for a giant athletic black man to dominate
Shaq is soooo overrated. Out of all the centers that played, he dominated the weakest era by far. His stats are overly inflated. Look at all the no namers he dominated.
Hakeem is above Shaq. I could careless if he has 4 rings.Hakeem had a better overrall all around game than Shaq.
@ALB2010 Oh yeah...definitely...I was born in 77, I started watching and playing hoops in the mid 80s...and even though Im a Knicks fan, Hakeem is the best big man I've ever seen!
@flight23magic32 I agree...he was great but people will probaly rate Shaq higher because of his 4 rings to Olajuwan's 2,I think Shaq was a more dominant player but Hakeem was more of an all around player
@ALB2010 Well if rings matter they shoulda put Tim Duncan somewhere in there He's one of the best I've ever seen.Not to mention Robert Horry!Just kidding about that,allthough he was clutch as hell.Anyway Olajuwon has maybe the best moves ever in the post.And I say maybe cuz I also think of Kevin McHale, James Worthy and Michael Jordan when it comes to post moves.TD, Ewing and KG too.All these guys could dance around the basket without traveling! Especially the first 4 that I mentioned...
@flight23magic32 true...I think he has better footwork then all of them but I think MJ could give him a run for his money,I think Kobe could too,as or Timmy Duncan I would want to put him in my top 10 but idk who I would take out
@ALB2010 Yeah...TD is a great player...and I would take him over Barkley if I'm lookin for a player that plays no more than 18 feet away from the basket...but if I want an all around player I'd take Barkley...besides that position has some of the finest bball players I've ever seen...like McHale, Karl Malone and Shawn Kemp. Chris Webber was great too and Derrick Coleman was a great all around talent...What do u think? And who would be your reserves?
@flight23magic32 I think Id take John Stockton,Kobe,Scottie Pippen,Karl Malone,and Shaq as my reserves I would consider takin Isiah Thomas as my backup PG
Good list but I would drop Wilt to 6, move Kareem to 5, put Russel at 2 and switch Magic and Bird. Wilt was just a 7'2" guy dominating tiny little scrubs, whereas Russel was an incredible defender/rebounder/leader that helped his team win 11 titles. Put Wilt in the NBA today and he's about as good as Andrew Bynum.
This video also includes, Michael Jordan, the number1 player in NBA history, and the world. Forget about the past, and think about the future, because he's the best to all of us. And every thing was for him. K.I.T. Michael. -JoEl8415
Your list includes "NBA" in the title, and if you just look at his NBA career, then I'm not sure Julius Erving belongs on the list at #14. If you include his ABA career, then no doubt he is in the Top 15 of all time. I watched alot of Dr J in the ABA, and he was basically Michael Jordan before MJ. Similarly, there is the case for Rick Barry if you include his ABA career. That sequence at 4:14 is some of my all-time favorite footage, being a big Wilt fan.
@ddenuci I agree with you about Erving, I was including his ABA career. (He was described as such by Bob Costas: "he wasn't just the best player in the league, he was the league!" But let's not forget how great he was in the NBA-he did only play 5 seasons in the ABA, as amazing as he was, whereas in the NBA he played for many years (and on some great teams).
@ddenuci And yeah, at 4:10 or whatever, when Wilt blocks Kareem. Here's a 7 foot 2 guy, at full extension, jumping into the air to shoot a hook shot, generally regarded as the most unstoppable offensive basketball move of all time. And Wilt Chamberlain just rejects it. Not once, but twice. That's how a player could average 50 points a game, by being that awesome.
@alexaadap I couldn't agree with u more dude! Hakeem is the best big man I've ever seen! And I happen to be a Knicks fan...and u know what that means with Patrick Ewing and stuff...
@Manx17 And in that video WIlt was past his prime. Amazing how any player ever could average 50 pts a game and not get the MVP. The following year in '63 he averaged 45 a game and didn't get the MVP. He would dominate the league today. Clearly the most dominate player ever.
Where are Olajuwon and Erving ????

This video also includes, Michael Jordan, the number1 player in NBA history, and the world. Forget about the past, and think about the future, because he's the best to all of us. And every thing was for him. K.I.T. Michael. -JoEl8415

Your list includes "NBA" in the title, and if you just look at his NBA career, then I'm not sure Julius Erving belongs on the list at #14. If you include his ABA career, then no doubt he is in the Top 15 of all time. I watched alot of Dr J in the ABA, and he was basically Michael Jordan before MJ. Similarly, there is the case for Rick Barry if you include his ABA career. That sequence at 4:14 is some of my all-time favorite footage, being a big Wilt fan.

@ddenuci I agree with you about Erving, I was including his ABA career. (He was described as such by Bob Costas: "he wasn't just the best player in the league, he was the league!" But let's not forget how great he was in the NBA-he did only play 5 seasons in the ABA, as amazing as he was, whereas in the NBA he played for many years (and on some great teams).

@ddenuci And yeah, at 4:10 or whatever, when Wilt blocks Kareem. Here's a 7 foot 2 guy, at full extension, jumping into the air to shoot a hook shot, generally regarded as the most unstoppable offensive basketball move of all time. And Wilt Chamberlain just rejects it. Not once, but twice. That's how a player could average 50 points a game, by being that awesome.

@Manx17 I think Hakeem was a much better player than Shaq. He should've been on the list

@alexaadap I couldn't agree with u more dude! Hakeem is the best big man I've ever seen! And I happen to be a Knicks fan...and u know what that means with Patrick Ewing and stuff...

@Manx17 What's the music for Bird ?

@Manx17 And in that video WIlt was past his prime. Amazing how any player ever could average 50 pts a game and not get the MVP. The following year in '63 he averaged 45 a game and didn't get the MVP. He would dominate the league today. Clearly the most dominate player ever.
