here's what I think:
1950: Mikan
1960: Bill Russell- won 8 championships in a row
1970: Kareem Abdul Jabaar- one of the greatest scorers ever
1980: Magic Johnson-5 rings and 3 finalist MVP awards
1990: Michael Jordan- do I need to explain?
2000-present: I'd have to say... Kobe or Shaq. Kobe is one of the most prolific scorers ever but Shaq has won 4 championships, AND he is in the top 50 of the best players ever, AND he has won rings on 2 seperate teams, thats a hard thing to do espescially when its your first year there! I have to say Shaq.

50- i have no idea
60-wilt chamberlain (statistics shows)
70- kareem abdul jabbar
80- michael jordan
90- shaquille o'neal (best big man)- A.I. (best little man)
2000-2007- A.I. and i dont know LeBron
Tim Duncan is overrated he like a big gray wall that everybody dunks on a flies past he's a waste of my time
Kobe is overrated too he's a selfish player who is now reaching his prime he only has 2 scoring titles (05-06; 06-07) and some rings that belongs to Shaq if Shaq was still a laker Kobe wouldnt be nothing
