ESPN Top 100 list

[Mikey3148]

OK so now that ESPN has released the full top 100 NBA players of all time, I want to know how you guys feel about this. I feel as if a couple really big names got ranked to low and some players to high on the list. In my opinion LBJ isn't even top 5 yet he's number 3. Kobe 12 is ridiculous I believe too since I believe Kobe is better than LBJ and would take Kobe in his prime over LBJ. Allen Iverson was ranked really low as well (behind names like Bill Walton). So I just want to get your views on how this list is and who you think was out to high or low.

Re: ESPN Top 100 list

Do you have a link to the entire list? Without have to click through pages and scroll through multiple pictures.. Would be nice if we just had a simple list 1-100 to look at.

When I get home from work I'll make it and we can talk about it all here if that's cool rather than scrolling through thousands of posts.

Pierce above Iverson and Dikembe? Man...

Re: ESPN Top 100 list

The fact that Curry and Durant are already ranked so close to Dirk, Barkley, Stockton and Malone just feels wrong someone.

I think KD us somewhat understandable since he has been the best scorer in the league for 5 years now but I agree. They are a bit high up especially Curry. Don't get me wrong he's unstoppable but , he's only been this good for a year and a half now

Lol I stopped reading that list after 100. Judging by the post in this thread I am glad I did.

Re: ESPN Top 100 list

decent list imo

BUT

LBJ need to swap places with either Duncan or Kobe. Kobe needs to be ranked higher.

Iverson should be ranked higher

Kevin Love should not be on the list and neither should Harden..yet

.
Exactly how i feel. LBJ isn't top 5 yet and A.I is too low. And How is Westbrook that high? What has he done to be ranked better than some of these guys

Re: ESPN Top 100 list

Oscar Robertson and Jerry West NOT in the top ten????

I felt like this too at first. But really I think the top 15ish is the right guys. The order is just taken a little bit too literal. The difference between a guy in 10th place or 12th place, 5th place and 8th place, etc is probably so small that it doesn't really matter so much. It's just a number, they're all pretty much lumped at the same level.

I was more off put by Baylor being so far back, and behind Curry after basically just 1 year that even compares to Baylor.

Re: ESPN Top 100 list

Why do people have a problem with Love making the list but are fine with Rodman being basically middle of the pack.

Are people really suggesting Rodman is better than Love? Or quite a few other people. I realize he had a very successful winning career, and was a key role player to some really good teams, but that's not what this list is about.
