    Just because there wasn't no 3 point line doesn't take away from their greatness. Russell and Wilt can play in any era and dominate. It's like Otto Graham, he gets so much respect still for what he did in the 50s and 60s with the Browns. Still always talked about in terms of being one of the greatest QBs to ever play the game [Top 10]. Otto Graham and Bill Russell are sport-counterparts.

    Honestly, I was trolling. I think he's the second greatest player ever, but he's still a snake. There's no denying that. My sports dislike for LeBron si similar to Brady... I sports hate him(not genuine hate of course), but I can still ackowledge his greatness.

    He's surpassed those guys for me, but Duncan really is underrated. Heis longevity and peak were amazing. I wonder how we would view him if he had a more colorful personality.

    I like the list, but I will put Bird and Magic in the top 5 because they played against a court full of HOF players when they won their championships and were unstoppable at that.

    Lebron should be tenth, Shaquille should be moved up to 7th, no one could stop him, if it were not for age and injuries, he was the most dominant player at his position since Wilt.

    I feel like I am disrespected Bird on this list. Magic and Bird should really be together because of how great they were and how they made the game great. Plus they played some great teams, especially Boston when they faced Houston with the Sampson and Hakeem along with the 76ers w/ Dr. J and even the Hawks and upcoming Bulls. Bird, still one of the clutchest players ever to play the game. Tough to make these lists for sure.

    Cmon man, that Tshirt is great, it's better than having his kids on it, like Curry would have done.

    Guy, they play a stupid game for a stupid trophy.

    If organized sports disappeared it's not that big a deal, people would find something else to occupy their time.

    no way. no one is allowed to have fun anymore. LeBron should've worn a collared shirt with suspenders and used the opportunity in the spotlight after the game to discuss important social causes. something cool like getting drunk and wearing an ultimate warrior shirt is petty and classless

    Lebron gave you 4 years of his prime. Put some respek on his name

    The trash talk was no where to be found they were getting whipped and down 3-1. I still blame Draymond Green. Green being out gave the Cavs confidence for the rest of the series. I still think they win if it weren't for his actions.

    There' nothing wrong with LeBron's trash talk, but if it were the Warriors doing it after winning the title again, they would have been bashed continually. It's a weird double standard.
