    it's long forgotten now, but charles probably had the greatest "peak" of any power forward in NBA history, duncan included. by virtue of that, he wins this poll hands down as the best player to have never won a ring. people bring up stockton and malone in the same sentence because their story was tragic due to the longevity of their careers and the work ethic/discipline such a feat necessitated. but those guys were a tier below charles.

    Good post. Iceman, anyone? Nate the Great Thurman was, well, great. There are dozens.

    Dominique.

    The guy was unreal. Just too much Jordans Bulls and Birds Celtics in the east back then.

    The guy was simply electric to watch.

    If it wasn't for teaming up with Lew Alcindor and a good Bucks team late in his career, the answer would have been Oscar Robertson.

    Since Big O ended up getting his, the answer is clearly Vasileios Spanoulis, a.k.a. Kill Bill, a.k.a. V-Span, a.k.a. the T-Mac of Greece.

    Yes he did, but I'm pretty sure Jason Williams was the starter and Gary was coming off the bench.

    Why technically as if he was sitting on the bench?

    I remember he played a pretty big part in that championship Miami team as a backup PG.

    But, but, but, Kevin Johnson had a sick dunk on Dream, and ESPN seems to feel that's more important, so there!

    If Cleveland would have made the right moves during the trade deadline, they would be in the Finals. Lebron knows that being on the Cavs is closer to winning than being on the Knicks.

    You can't even compare Melo to T-Mac. How does Melo lack hunger and drive when the Nuggets got to the WCF. Yes, Billups played a part but like Karl said one individual doesn't make all the other guys play better. Melo was the only that showed up to play in LA and wanted to guard Kobe to help the team. Have you not seen Melo play during the Olympics/FIBA Americas Tournament, this guy is for real.
