The Greatest Basketball Player

Picking the greatest basketball player of all time is easy, because the greatest basketball player of all time is Michael Jordan. Its easier in basketball than in other team sports, because the positions arent wildly dissimilar as they are in football and hockey, and you dont have the scepter of the whole while were at it, Babe Ruth was an All-Star-level pitcher, too-argument hanging over the discussion as you do in baseball.

Ā 

For basketball? Its Jordan. Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell put up phenomenal stats in a different era that featured mismatched athletic and skill sets, heightened pace, and 40 percent field goal percentages. On the other side of that historical curve sits LeBron James, who is on pace to exceed Jordans accomplishments and supplant him as the best basketball player ever.

Ā 

I would have to include another one- Larry Bird.. Basketball assassin. The beauty of true power is not using it, but showing flashes of it on command.. just to let everyone know. McHale scored 50+.. Bird topped him the next night. And the reason he didn't do it more often was because he thought of TEAM first.

Ā 

Of the four (4) mentioned above, my personal fave is MJ.
