His name (even if it is a joke) should not be in this thread.

Yeah, thats the only ranking we can totally be sure of. Magic and Bird would be in my top ten but am not really confident listing the others.

Ya it's really hard to put them in order, I'll just go with what Jeffx said.

My top Kings of All-Time:
1. C-Webb
2. "Tiny" Archibald
3. Mitch Richmond
4. Oscar Robertson
5. Vlade Divac
6. Peja Stojakovic
7. Jason Williams
8. Mike Bibby
9. Brad Miller
10. Doug Christie

Others:
Bob Davies
Maurice Stokes
Jack Twyman
Sam Lacey

I know the list is way off but I'm not really familiar with the older players...

There was an NBA before Jordan. Can't put him above Wilt, no way.

This thread is a failure. Chris 23, sac-1, and FranchiseKing -- you three are idiots. Jeffx is right, there was an NBA before Michael Jordan. But most importantly, it's all our opinion. Two could argue day and night about who's better. Neither will win, neither will be right.

Oh, and in my opinion, Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time.

Wilt has 2 rings, not enough for the "greatest ever". Heres my list

1. Jordan
2. Magic
3. Bird
4. Russell
5. Kareem
6. Wilt
7. Oscar Robinson
8. Karl Malone
9. Shaq
10. Dr J
11. Moses Malone
12. Hakeem
13. Tim Duncan
14. Pippen (theres bound to be some criticism of this selection)
15.Elgin Baylor
16. Isiah
17. Stockton
18. David Robinson
19. Charles Barkley
20. John Havicek

Theres a few players close to selection from this current crop of nba players:
Garnett
Kobe
Iverson
Jason Kidd

But they need a few more years to solidify their positions and get some more accomplishments. I'm happy with my list at the moment.
