Top 20 NBA Basketball Players of All Time

Dirk is not good well he is but not Kobe of Michael Jordan good. He is like top 75 not 1. Where did you people get this information.

You got to be kidding me he is not in top 20 he is not even in the top 100

The guy who ranked these has got to be from Berlin. Dirk cant even hold Jordan's jock.

this is ridiculous dirk will never even be top 20 of all time never ever. this is a joke right? if not then you dont know anything about basketball absolutely nothing.

Dirk is barely even In top 20

DIRK IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE #1!!!!!!!!

This is a joke right!!!!!

dirk nowitzki is not that good he is good but not that much he wont be remembered like paul pierce rondo and kevin garnett

THANK U!!!!! SOMEONE WHO ACUALLY FOLLOWS MY LOGIC!!!!

Nowitzki is not even close to number one.

nowitzki will never be the best player.

is this a joke?

grossly underrated, he would have even stopped Jordan

the worst to ever be considered great.

mike's #1 Dirk isn't that good

He's #1

hes #1

Won with several different cast of supporting players. The greatest of all-time indeed.

HE IS #1 ···········

the greatest he was, the greatest he will be. How are the people so blind to think that a lebron james can reach his level... he was so good no one will reach his level, definitively

Jordan best player ever to play not even in question.

Michael Jordan is the beast No matter what He has the best career points

Jordan is the best

Do you even watch basketball no offence but MJ is THE BEST

michael jordan is the best basketball player to step on the court not 2

MJ is #1

Number 1 period. Most people ranking these players were not even born when they played. Again Jordan is number 1. Just like Barry Sanders is the best and number 1 RB in NFL history.....

Although Jordan shouldn't be this low, this is a much more realistic ranking than the "Greatest" one on the first page with M.J., Kobe, and Lebron ranked rediculously 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.

he should be #1 not 8

there is really no greatest player

Best ever. KB24 will never surpass Mike regardless of rings. Mike's stats trump Kobe's it's not even close. Stats + Rings = MJ as King

Magic was the best in his time on the floor!

NOT ROOKIE OF THE YEAR

Who needs a ROY trophy when you manage to win the Finals MVP in your rookie year? When you earn the most prestigious indivdual award in the first season it's clear that you are in a different level than any other rookie... that's why he's "Magic".

Ya pippen was overshadowed by Jordan pip was the second best player in the league at the time

sure he wasn't rookie of the year but he help lakers win the championsip without kareem at game 7 at his rookie season

Magic was definitely, without a doubt, the greatest basketball player ever. Not greatest scorer, or greatest rebounder, or greatest athlete but greatest basketball player. No one could do as much as good.

Magic Johnson was NOT the Rookie of the Year. Larry Bird won the award that year in a landslide.

he good

He wasn't the biggest or the tallest. All arguments against him are ignorant. If he played today he'd still lead the league in scoring, rebounding, blocked shots and yes, because he actually did it when it was asked of him, assists.

If he played in the league now he would be getting 20 ppg and his career high would be like 31 he is completely overrated for that stat if it was Jordan he woulda droped 150 and 80 a game

That hundred points should not count he was the biggest and tallest not to be racist or anything but he was one of the only BLACK people in the league KB24 all the way

Great player but not number 4 he should be in the mid teens

he wasn't a good player,thisw spot should be kareem abdul-jabbar

never heard of him

ibaka actually jumped behind the frrthrow line

Will to win

he is better than james and ai there good but not that good larry bird should have number 4 or 5

allen iverson sucks!

He is no doubt top 10 and don't try to tell me he isn't better than Oscar Robertson

who ever put ramked this is a total dumbass.larry bird and isiah lower than lebron and iverson WTF.lebron never won a ring ,A.I sucks i don't know why people put him in the ranks of top 20,he should be in top50 or 100.

Nice try guest but Magic was the greatest all around player ever.EVER.

Larry Legend= the most indispensible player of all time

Celtics' record in 1991 & 1992 with Bird= 77-28 Celtics' record in 1991 & 1992 without Bird= 30-29 There's other player with THAT level of impact oh his teams' winning & losing. He and Magic are the only 2 players whose teams won 60+ games per 82 games played------and Bird went to the worst team in the NBA (29-53) in 1980 to start his career (Lakers were 47-35 before Magic, 60-22 with him). Jordan was on 5 teams that didn't have a winning record, took 7 years to get to the Finals and never was on an 'above .500' 'team without Scottie Pippen.

Celtics' record in 1992 with Bird= 31-14 Celtics' record in 1992 without Bird= 20-17

Celtics' record in 1991 with Bird= 46-14 Celtics' record in 1991 without Bird= 10-12

Celtics' record in 1988 with Bird= 57-25 Celtics' record with same team in 1989 (but without Bird)= 24-28 before trades were made

Celtics' record in1978 & 1979= 61-101 Celtics' record in 1980 with Bird= 61-21 (Bird only change to starting 5)

Sure Kobe has 5 rings and LeBron has one and yet LeBron is 11 spots higher.

king james got the ring now id put him top 10 cuz hes the most talented player ever to play and now hes got a ring so anybody tht says he choked just watch the 2012 nba finals and wat u gonna say then

he is mean dwayne wade used to get 30 something points the most in the nba in 2010 when lebron james come he now gets like 10 points in a game 2012 see the connection lebron does not pass it to anyone he acts so cool hes mean

lebron is da best he choke last season because he found out his best freind was f****** his mom

if he could finish he would be the best ever.

No way top ten now get back to me in 5 years IF he learns how to finish

yee! everybody that thinks lebron is better then kobe is wrong, kobe is mr. clutch, i havent seen lebron win a ring let alone 5 rings! lebron is still really good, but not top 15 now, later on maybe, i dont like his decision to go to miami, if lebron is king, kobe must be GOD

hes good but hes not there yet hes been choking every since he went to the championship hes the choke artist of the decade sorry LeBron KB24 all the way

No way is he a top 10 all time player right now. When it's all said and done, most likely but now.....HELL NO!

Greatest defensive player of all time and best team player of all time as he won 11 NBA titles in 13 years. Revolutionized the game with defensive prowess and rebounding. Dominated the league without scoring a great deal (15.1 ppg in career). I rank Bill number one of all time!

he is a legend celtics wouldnt have this much championships actually the most he is awesome he deserves number 4 or 3

He's a good scorer but just about the worst team player you will find. Plus he thought he was better than he was

love the Celtics baby

you meen kareem

Wade is good but he flops like crazy along with James and bosh so I hate them all

WADE IS THE BEST

Karl Malone was perhaps the greatest forward EVER to play the game. He de-thrones Micheal Jordan in 1997 to be MVP. He then lead the Jazz to a better record then the Bulls in 1998 were his stats were actually better then in 1997. The Jazz were robbed in the finals Jordans last shoot was a offensive fault and the serious should have gone to the final game.

Rings, Rings, Rings

whatever kobe has a lot of assists

Are u out of ur mind Kobe is a all time top ten player period. He has 5 rings and 11 first all nba team nominations.

Bryant is a great shooter but he is to much of a ball hog. He gets more points than people like Lebron or Melo this season because he shoots more than both of them

are you kidding me! kobe is one of the best players of all time, nobody can guard his jumpshot, and he will pump fake and go by you and dunk in your face

kobe will be the best ever and lebron is not the best in the league hes going to play for another mans team just to be the sidekick and he wants to be like kobe

Rated way too high. Magic, Bird, Kareem, Wilt and Russell should all be higher than Kobe. Sorry to all of Kobe's 13 year old fans but he isn't a top 5 all time player let alone #2.

mvp 2014

kevin is the bomb!!!!!

Is my favorite player

fricken awesome

back 2 back scoring titles and he is23 yrs. old

yah I got his autugraph

THIS GUY SHOULD BEEEE HIIIGHER!......... ya

Ok he's good but not this good maybe early 30s too late 20s

but they lost

he is the most valuable player in the entire nba!! he is the best shooter and blocker and passer along with tony parker and manu ginobili,.

The best in the W E S T !!!!!!!!!!

the spurs have won 5 nba finals and all those finals guess what, tim duncan was in every single nba finals that they won. he has the ability to dunk and shoot free throse

he is the gratest, best, most awesome, super cool, rad bakeyball player of all time, who would not think that tim duncan is the best player. he has 3 mvp awards, 5 nba finals mvp awards and has a great coach

tduncan is so awesome and he is one of the best players of all time in the nba, he is awesome at shooting and blocking

The twin towers are Yao Ming and Shaquille O'Neal

Never heard of him

He's the all-time NBA 3-point scorer...

Right as I passed over his name a commercial comes on and guess who's in it... Charles Barkley

its Charles Barkley

thats no even how you spell his name

awesome player especially in 2008 he is the truth lol he is going to be in NBA history he will be remembered even if he retires or "goes up to the floating basketball court"

Should easily be in Top 10.

Needs to be way higher. The made the NBA logo out of his image for goodness sake.

higher really your talking about MR.CLUTCH

good shooter

Who are you kidding putting John Stockton at number 30. He is the all time assists leader. He is also the all time steals leader, The guy was BETTER then Magic Johnston.

I meant to say 41 points against the Heat in 2011-12 A M A Z I N G

Wow just wow

ibaka can block him any day of the week ,ps.weekends too

First 2 games of 2012-13 season averaged 41 ppg

Probally the greatest player not to win a championship

he is hairy

Steve Nash shouldnt even be on this list

HE IS WAY BETTER THAN THE 35-48

ya seriously he should be in top 25 atleast geez he is leading the warriors they gonna make it to the playoffs this year and he is boss at threes

He's already on the list. Vote for the higher one not this one

i loved carter in his prime. best dunker but not a all time great player

agree

yea he can dunk but why is he on the list

he is half white dumb ass

not true he could beat you so your a nerd

he is awesome

he is terrible, no not terrible, just defintlyy not #34, maybe in the 50's-60's, maybe..

i know him

Jimmer is just a super awesome three point shooter but not top 55 not top 400 yet but he has potential to be top 50 if he becomes like Steve Kurr

Grandpas will tell his name to grand children.

It's Rudy not roody

hasnt done anything in the NBA

He played football dummy.

This guy played football not basketball

this guy played football for the 49ers,Raiders and seahawks.(go SF)

ummmm mayb u shud watch some football

adam morrison was the best player in college but ya he was a stud on the lakers even though his average playing time was2 mins.. go GONZAGA

really...how about gasol
