    Magic and Kareem aren't even the best Laker ever.

    I heart me some Kobe, but I can't put him ahead of Magic.
    You just hate white guys.

    I for one was in awe in his performance the last 3 games. With those performances, He has moved to the number 2-A spot all time. I hate to be THAT guy who discounts the old timers talents. But if the 50's-60's era's greats had to go up against the length and athleticism of players in the last 30 years, they wouldn't be as dominating.

    I put Lebron above Bird, but side by side with Magic. At least for now.

    That was an older version of O ... and there were some dominant teams in the league at that time ...

    Biggest criticism of Kareem to me is that he never won without another alpha besides him ... he certainly isn't one of my favorites

    That and My 2 dad's said that He sometimes played aloof and didn't always hustle down the court and He really only tried hard come playoffs.

    Why don't you try dragging Bob Lanier up and down the court all night and then pop off?

    Duncan is already getting slept on. He dominated from day one and played at a high level until 40. He was an automatic 20 and 12 for years and always played better in the playoffs.

    I remember him regularly doninating the good Steve Nash Suns' teams.There was a large stretch where he was the best player in the league.

    Duncan was the best post player, maybe the best rebounder, and the best big guy defender in the league for a long time.

    Why Duncan is a top 10 caliber player ... but I have a hard time putting him in that Top 5 level ... but he isn't that far removed
