Michael Jordan
Kareem abdul Jabbar
"Pistol" Pete Maravich
Jerry West
Charles Barkley
Bill Russell
Wilt "the stilt" Chamberlin
Bob Cousy
Bob McAdoo
Larry Bird
Kevin Mchale
Isiah Thomas
Oscar Robertson.
My favorite would be a tie between Jordan's flashy dunks and buzzer beaters, and Pete Maravich's STUNNING passes, shooting, and dribbling!

Wilt "The Stilt" Chamberlain
100 points in a game WITHOUT THREE-POINTERS and an even more incredible 55 rebounds in a game!! WOW! Also he holds the record for most consecutive field goals with 18! Look at these honors he has earned:
Elected to Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame (1978); NBA champion (1967, '72); NBA Finals MVP (1972); NBA MVP (1960, '66, '67, '68); All-NBA First Team (1960, '61, '62, '64, '66, '67, '68); Second Team ('63, '65, '72); All-Defensive First Team (1972, '73); Rookie of Year (1960); One of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History (1996).
He was the league's leading rebounder in 11 of his 14 seasons and led the NBA in scoring seven years in a row. He has had 118 games with at least 50 points. In one season, his FG% was 73%. Already during his rookie year, he won Rookie of the Year, All-Star Game MVP, and NBA Most Valuable Player. But to top it all off, he averaged an unimaginable 50.4 ppg in the 1961-62 season.
Not only that, but man HE WAS THE GAME! WOO!

Jordan was the best to ever play, hands down. IF you take him out of the equation, the 2nd best player is probably....
Bird.
I like Maravich, Dr. J, and Magic a lot too, but Bird made his mark without being the fastest, tallest, or best jumper. He had the heart of a champ.

bird, best white guy ever... and i like white basketball players because they are rare because they werent part of our selective breeding during the slave days, so it is very hard to compete with the large people that we picked out of the tribes in africa and then mated them together to make the strongest fastest and biggest, it is our own fault we manipulated their jeans, they should pay us not us pay them for reparations... now they are all the big football millionares and b ball.

Oscar Robertson was the ONLY player to ever average a TRIPLE-DOUBLE throughout an ENTIRE season, so that's who gets my vote!
