jordan #1 magic johnson #1a then koby,dr. j,the big o,wilt, kareem,lebron,bird,shaq,russel all great players (and team players.) and all could be percieved by their fans as the best ever.
Keep in mind that he was 7 feet (was actually a shade over 6'9):
1) Best footwork of ANY big man and most of the league (see '95 playoff series against SA and MVP David Robinson) 2) Could consistantly hit a mid-range and fall-away jumper 3) Most blocks in recorded NBA history and rarely would a player take it to the hole on him 4) Could always pass the ball but for years was surrounded by sub-par shooters 5) Averaged a double-double for his career (22 pts / 11 rbs)
All things considered, he was the best, ever. >>
Your joking right.
Id put these players ahead:
Michael, Wilt, Bill Russell, Larry Bird, Pete Marvich, SHAQ(as much as i hate him), oscar robertson >>
No I'm not joking but you obviously are by saying Shaq is better than Dream was.
Ha! You're funny. >>
shaq is much more dominent that hakeem ever was. Players are bigger more skilled and faster now and shaq still owns. And i hate shaq

How is Shaq more "dominent" (sic) than Dream ever was? Please elaborate because you have yet to say anything of substance to back your claim.
Can he consistently hit a 10+ footer? No.
Can he consistently hit free throws? No.
Can he make it through a whole season without being on the IR? No.
Oh and just in case you forgot, Dream swept Shaq in 1995.
So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts
Larry Bird was the best ever. Kobe Bryant is a chump. He will win nothing the rest of his career. He is a whiny piece of garbarge, who doesn't know how to pass or take no for an answer. By the way, Bill Russell had 11 championships in 13 seasons. Won an NCAA college championship and an olympic gold metal. Russell is the greatest winner and that is what sports is about.
