Awesome video, continue with this work man
Thank you for watching the video! 🙏
Hakeem Olajuwon is easily ahead of Durant and ITS NOT HIS FAULT HE LOSS EARLY IN PLAYOFFS HIS TEAM SUCKED I also think he ahead of Curry and Shaq he did most with less like look at his playoffs number from 86 to 95 ridiculous 9 year run
He competition was drunks and coke heads
Absolutely, over Durant and curry.
Moses malone, Kareem, Ralph Sampson, Charles Barkley, Kevin Mchale, Karl Malone, Robert Parish, Patrick Ewing , David Robinson, Alonzo Mourning, Dikimbe Mutombo, Arydas Sabonis, vlade Divac , Kevin Willis, Manute Bol, Cliff Robinson, Elden Campbell, Mark Eaton, Brad Daugherty, Jack Sikma
Were not considered legitimate competitors?? 🤨

This was a good list and breakdown. ❤❤❤❤
Enterteining video i watch it all the way you have perfect time to represent one player no to long no to short
Thank you for watching the video! 🙌
I can't be pleased with any list that doesn't include Larry Bird in the top 5. Here's the list of legendary players who named Larry Bird in their top 5 ever list: Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, James Worthy, Michael Cooper, Isaiah Thomas, just to name some
It's hard to put him above any of the top 5 in this list, but he should definitely be above at least Kobe, and probably Wilt too
@@michaelhays Nah, look at the list of basketball legends I mentioned who put him in the top 5 or top 3 ever. I'm sure those players know more about basketball than you and I
Great video! You forgot to mention that Jordan never resorted to conspiring with other players behind the scenes to create Super teams in order to have the best chance to win Championships like Lebron did who still failed more than not!
Havent watched yet but im excited to see where Bob Pettit, George gervin and hakeem Olajuwan land. They never get the love they deserve especially the dream.
My problem with ranking Bill Russel so high is that he won his championships in a league that had between 8-14 teams during this 11 rings. It was so much easier to win back then, his 11 rings would probably be worth like 3 modern ones. Yet no one talks about this.
Winnings winning
Less team also mean less chance to play in NBA. I think it wasn't easier in the 50s to be Champion than today for a regular men. Let's not minimize the old achievements and old folks.
His team won 3 of his 11 titles playing a grand total of 10 playoff games. He also had by far the most stacked team of the era in a time when there wasn't very many teams.
I'm watching the game since 1987. I will enjoy the list and maybe comment afterwards
Kulius irbing has 3 conference final, but have 4 trip to the finals? How could it be?
Wilt and Bill top 2 guys ever. No other player in history are greater nor bring more production at scoring and passing as much as they are greater and bring more production at rebounding and defense. And they did it in an era with the hardest rules, pace to keep up with, most competitive n hof legends at a single time etc….
Wilt
Bill
Kareem
Bird
West
Top5 ever objectively when it comes to what they bring to the table peak or no peak against any given comp under any given circumstances
Pretty good list but first thing i notice in mine opinion Kidd is way to low and harden way to high
Also Kevin Garnett isnt even the best Kevin that played PF for the celtics
The most precise
Thank you for watching! 🙏
am I the only one whos thinking "ok, the older generation players were good, but I would like to see them guard westbrook, kyrie, or doncic." they cant, but the older generations can be guarded by modern day players
Moncrief over Dumars is questionable
My top 5 most skilled players ever:
Pistol Pete: There are things that he did on the court with the ball that players today still can’t do. His ball handling, passing, and shooting was absolutely phenomenal and he dedicated his entire life to the game and did it all without a three point line. Averaged over 30 points for the hawks and still has the scoring record for college which will literally never be beat🔥🔫
Larry Bird: This guy could barely jump an inch off the ground and he still averaged 10 rebounds a game for his entire career. Won three 3 point contests and one of the most underrated passers and facilitators of all time. Only player ever to average 24/10/6. Hit a game winner over MJ and Scottie with a hurt back! This man was COLD 🥶 🦅
MJ: This man shows the difference between talented and skilled. He always had talent but had to develop his skillset overtime because he kept losing to the Celtics, pistons, and rockets. Once he mastered his craft and became the most skillful player in the game people feared him and he ended up three peating twice. The greatest two way player of all time. Showed off his skills multiple different ways by winning multiple different titles and people were generally afraid of being on the court with him. Averaged 30 points a game his entire career and would of been on 50% shooting if he didn’t join the wizards. Mid range was flawless and unstoppable 👌
Kobe: Nobody mirrored MJ the way Kobe did. He could score from anywhere on the court and his handles and passing skills were incredibly remarkable. Go look earlier in his career and you will see all kinds of no look passes, through the legs, 360 dunks, fake outs, ankle breakers, etc… Kobe had it all and almost three peated twice just like Jordan if it wasn’t for the 2008 loss to the Celtics. Mamba was feared for a reason 🐍
Kareem: The Sky Hook is the most skillful shot in the history of basketball and Kareem was the only one to master it fully. Nobody can stop it. He could do it with both hands from both sides of the key and even 20 feet out. Had the leading scoring record for nearly 40 years and he mainly used one single shot to make it happen. When people know what you are going to do and still can’t do anything to stop it that’s when you know you are skilled 🥽 🏀
Best skilled players with no Kyrie Irving ? FOH
It is not right to place Klay Thomas beyond Vince Carter. You should take a look to VC's career total points and games played. I am sick for over~ratings 3 point shooters even some of them are without any dominant career records, MVP or champ in these days.
I'm too lazy to watch this but I hope Bernard King and Calvin Murphy are here somewhere. They weren't in the top 75 selection two years ago
WILT CHAMBERLAIN!!! THE GOAT!!!l imagine him in his prime today! with modern shoes, trainingmethods, right food and so on.... he would by far be the best nba player today!!!!!
Giannis had one of the most dominant finals performances of all time as finals mvp.... 2x league mvp.. In a few years he will be cemented in the top 10. Guaranteed
Where does Neil Johnston rank???
No David Thompson??
Wade and Dirk should swap ranks. Wade was more productive as an overall player
Dirk beat Dwayne on top of building a franchise and being the influence of worldwide talent today. Where they don't know dwade they know dirk and dwade is a sussy dude 😢
What about Dikembe Mutombo? Easily a top 10 defensive player of all time
pretty sure he mentioned him
Duncan to low
The best player by year born like 1920-2000 Are Bob Cousy,Oscar Robertson,Walt Frazier,Julius Irving,Michael Jordan,Kobe Bryant,LeBron James,Devin Booker and Anthony Edwards
Pippen to should be top 25
The top 5 are the right people....just the wrong order
w video FIRST
but bron is better that jordan my opinion
Imagine putting john stockton over kawhi and harden pffffffff and cousy was npc guard
Isiah Stockton Drexler should be higher
Why nearly all of you place some shooting guys without any MVP or Champ over some big men with several DPOYs and a champ like Ben Wallace? I totally disagree this arrangement. But, noboby jumps out and think about this, strange!
Im sorry but if Steph Curry and Nikola Jokic aren't top ten then you need to rethink the list
dikembe is top 25 argue with a wall
Ok grant hill over chris bosh...
Im out
Russell way to high...
J.Butler don't need be on dis list, he gay! And D. Wade he a creep.
no KD's #2
Kobe at 7 is a sin.
Agreed. Kobe is way too high on this list. Shouldn't have even cracked the top 100.
Throw the list away
Duncan really bettee then malone or hakeem?
Shitted on lebron just to big up Jordan is crazy
LBJ is not #2 he's around 5 or 6
wat more he has to do lol. he has everythign to be 2 or even 1
@@footyroll8678 4 win's 6 looses N finals
4 1st 6 2nd. getting to finals is another reason why he should be 1 or 2. how tf yall take an achievemnt and use it against him its funny@@kennylynch8575
plus who even deserves to be ahead of him but jordan doesnt even make sense@@kennylynch8575
Yeah don’t ever talk hoops again lol.
kobe is above lebron hands down
Kobe fans are so insecure
You can put lbj at 30 and Kobe at 29 and he would be happy. It just shows how insecure they are
kobe fans...
exactly lol idk why kobe fans even comapre kobe to bron. bron is litteraly miles better and no bron fan even takes time to debate kobe vs bron. its like so far in the past and not worth it. its almost like a disrespect@@redbogaming6009

PS : For trophy which didn't exist or stat I calculated them forthe past in order to have the exact same number of point to share each year.
Sad list, though I appreciate seeing Russell near the top. Larry Bird at #8 :( Only player with 24-10-6 for a career. He is ranked 61st in Overall Defensive Rating in the history of the league (MJ is 110th ;). Both Bird and MJ came to bad teams their rookie year. MJ's Bulls won 11 more games with him his rookie year. Bird's Celtics won 32 more games his rookie year (an all-time record turnaround--that's GOAT impact--not to mention he led them to a championship his 2nd year). Bird was the first player to shoot 50-40-90--and then did it again the following year. Bird became the best by beating the best whereas Jordan never beat Bird (0-6 in playoffs), never beat Isaiah until that team was fractured due to the expansion draft, never beat Dr. J, never beat Magic with Kareem--never beat anyone his first 6 years--he was a non-factor. Bird is a razor-thin 2nd all-time in win percentage to Magic who had Kareem Abdul-Jabbar from the beginning on that rookie Laker team. Bird not only played through broken bones to hand, face, and vertebrae and intense back pain, he dominated. I guess you could say he is a better shooter than Jordan, better rebounder, better passer, better court-vision, better free-throw shooter, better 3-point shooter, better in the clutch, better playmaker, more impactful, and a better defender, better record against (both regular season and playoffs)--and Bird did it against the toughest competition and decade in league history--the 80s. Larry could do things on the court that players simply could not even successfully mimic. He would throw pin-point full-court inbounds 'baseball' passes after an opponents made FG to a streaking McHale or Parish, or even a shorter guy like Ainge sandwiched in a running double team for an easy lay-in and he did this at least once just about every game. One more thing--Larry Bird was so good he had a 32-10-10-9-2 game against Karl Malone's Jazz in Utah in '85 in 31 minutes--he never played a minute of the fourth quarter because they were up by so much and he didn't need the accolades of a quadruple-double--he was only about winning and being the best teammate. It is easy for some to get caught up in the Jordan or LeBron hype or any of the flashy dunkers. Most people don't know Bird was statistically a better defender than Jordan or that LeBron is the all-time leader in turnovers and not just because he has played so long (look at the average ;). If you don't know Bird is the GOAT, you just have more research to do. TH-cam is the place to do it, and Basketball Reference for the all-time rankings. Jokic will end up in the top 5 of this list, maybe at #2 when all is said and done--provided being a flashy dunker isn't a requirement to be the best.
bird is still not jordan bron level. i rate bird highly more than others but he really has nothing over those 2. It is not getting caught up in the debate its simply those two have the most accolades and stats
