greatest player ever in the NBA?
 

I got into this debate w/ my friend a while ago and then someone in OOT threw out an NBA player’s name as the greatest ever to play as if it were fact a few days ago. Are there any serious basketball fans in the house w/ an opinion? (I am a casual observer of the game but am opinionated nonetheless [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]).

Depends on what you mean by greatest. I voted Jordan, btw.

Won scoring titles, won championships, was a leader - took the big shots, generated excitement every time he played, increased the popularity of the league, seemed like a decent guy off the court, on and on and on..

The only choices that should be on this poll are MJ, Wilt, and Oscar Robertson. Having Kareem on your poll clearly makes it a joke.

Not even close.

I'd have to go with Antoine Carr. I swear to god I never saw him miss a shot, must have been like 38 for 38 while I was watching in his career.

that's like me and John Kruk. granted, he was a pretty good hitter, but, with me watching (on TV) I think he hit arouind .600 and slugged around 1.000. I swear he went 2-4 or 3-4 with two doubles every time I saw his games.

I'm a huge Magic fan and Wilt obviously has to be considered, but it's Michael.

Hehe Darko. I really liked those Blazer teams that Kersey were part of. They were pretty stacked with Clyde, Jerome, Terry Porter, Buck Williams and Cliff Robinson. Too bad Duckworth was such a headcase back then, or they'd have a couple of more championships.
