Updated Top 100 NBA players of all time (slam magazine)

Chauncey Billups was better than Isiah Thomas. Better shooter, better defender, less turnover prone.

 

One guy that is high on that list (67) that never really stood out that much to me, despite winning a finals MVP (which Billups & Iggy also did, meh) -- Tony Parker. If you're one of the 67 best players of all time you should have been a franchise caliber player at some point. Was Tony Parker ever even a top 3 PG in the league at any given time?

 

Kevin Durant over Mailman, Dirk and even sniffing the top 25 is insanity. One MVP and a coattail riding championship? Dirk literally dragged the Mavs to a championship BY HIMSELF.

Durant and Steph are so overrated it blows my mind.

 

Pippen, Worthy, Rodman and Sam Jones were never franchise players.

He's a 6 time all star, and was a major player on 4 NBA champions including the finals MVP. All that winning carries a heavy weight.

 

And only 6 all star games? Yikes. Even less spectacular than I recalled.

 

Nowitzki in 2011 finals: 26 PPG on 53.7 TS%, 9.7 RPG, 2.0 APG, 0.7 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 16.6 GameScore, 21.8 PER
Durant in 2017 finals: 35.2 PPG on 69.8 TS%, 8.2 RPG, 5.4 APG, 1.0 SPG, 1.6 BPG, 30.3 GameScore, 32.6 PER

Dirk should be higher because he played 10 more seasons, but no reason to spread false information.
