Answer 1

Top 30 at the most and he didn't take the Lakers to the Finals by himself. He obviously had Odom and Pau.  

Answer 2

-Shaq should be bumped up ahead of West and Kareem...Considering he has won yet another ring since 03'

-Duncan #55, he should be moved up! Shaq and Duncan have been the most dominate players of this era

Answer 3

Move Tim Duncan above Shaq up to 9

Reggie Miller jumps up to just below Gary Payton, new rank = 51

AI passes Hal Greer, new rank = 56

Kobe moves up to right below Moses Malone, rank = 18

Jason Kidd moves in under AI, rank = 57

Chris Webber does not pass anyone, new rank = 67

KG moves up to beneath Dominique Wilkins, new rank = 30

Alonzo doesn't pass anyone, new rank = 74

Grant Hill does not pass anyone and gets knocked out of the top 75

TMac moves in under Jason Kidd, new rank = 58

LeBron knocks out Grant Hill and moves below Reggie Miller, rank = 52

You have to do finish all the player shuffling before the numbers make sense but they do work out. I just commented on players rank changes in order of where they used to be ranked. So even though it seems weird for Iverson to pass someone and move down the ranking, its because he was passed by Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett, and Lebron James.

Answer 4

Thats crazy kobe has to be in the top 5

Answer 5

the Top Ten looks right but Bill is TOO low...

Answer 6

I like it..............did you make the list cause you did a good job!! I would put Kobe a little higher though, not much. I also would put Tim Duncan before A.I (I love A.I and all I think he is amazing and incredible but being a Suns fan I see Timmy a lot and how good he is, he is one of the best PFs that ever played). Steve Nash would be in the top 75 at least, people already rank him as one of the best PGs in NBA history so I'd put in on the list. Other than that is a great list!! In a couple of years Lebron should be on that list too but first he needs to win MVP or at least a championship

Top Ten are definitely locked!!!

Answer 7

I'd put Kobe ahead of Clyde...Even Portland fans ( I live in Portland) say that Kobe was far superior to Clyde.

Answer 8

Ratings Suck

Answer 9

I don't see how they could put Kareem 7th. He's got the most Regular Season MVP's of all time with 6 & the most points in an Nba Career. Also Moses Malone should be in the top ten for he won 3 Regular Season MVP's tied with Magic & Bird for 4th all time. Elgin Baylor should be much further down for he never won an MVP Award or a an NBA Championship. Willis Reed at 29, he won two RS MVP's, 2 Finals MVP's & 2 Championships for God's sake. Tim Duncan needs to be in the top 10 or 15 for sure. Kobe Bryant in the top 15. David Robinson should be in the top 20. I would put Bill Walton in the top 45 at least & possibly in the top 25. Anybody with an RS MVP should be in the top 50. Also you could easily put Kareem or Russell at #1 over Jordan & drop Wilt down to 4th. It's an interesting list. Would be interesting to see what it looks like when they update it.
