who are the nba 10 best players?

1. Shaquille O'neal
2. Allen Iverson
3. Tim Duncan
4. Michael Jordan
5. Kobe Bryant
6. Vince Carter
7. Tracy MacGrady
8. Paul Pierce
9. Steve Francis
10. Tie: Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitski

 

You failed to do your research, you failed to see the obvious. With Hill and McGrady playing alongside each other, TMac was a better player. he's still a great player with Hill in the lineup. If you don't believe me, refer to the stats TradeMan posted above.

If anything, Kobe is overrated. Corey Maggette made him look bad the other night in the 2nd half, and without Shaq, he hasn't proven he can lead the team on his own.

 

Oh, and my top 10 list.

1. Shaquille O'Neal
2. Tim Duncan
3. Kevin Garnett
4. Paul Pierce
5. Tracy McGrady
6. Allen Iverson
7. Dirk Nowitzki
8. Michael Jordan
9. Steve Francis
10. Kobe Bryant

 

Dirk iks the best, he is the total package, a 7 footer with range, who can put the ball on the floor, He can play any position, and everyone will finally realize that he is the best player when LA can't stop Dallas this summer in the playoffs, because with Dirk at the 5, Shaq will be forced away from the basket and Samaki Walker can't cleanup down low if you take out 2 or 3 bad games this year, Dirk is up around 26 points and 10.5 rebounds

 

The way those Mavs played interior D against a weakened Spurs team in the playoffs last year sure must strike fear in those Lakers come playoff time

 

1.SHAQ
2.DUNCAN
3.MCGRADY
4.BRYANT
5.GARRNETT
6.IVERSON
7.PIERCE
8.KIDD
9.WEBBER
10.CARTER

 

With Dirk at the five he won't be able to guard Shaq, and will be in foul trouble all night, thus putting up sub-par numbers. It goes both ways.

 

My top 10:

1)Kobe: Offense, Defense, he's got it all, and he's only 23!
2)Shaq: Most dominant by far.
3)Garnett: Crazy skills for a man his height. And still young.
4)Duncan: Big Fundamental.
5)Iverson: Does things that a man that little shouldn't be able to.
6)Nowitzki: Same comments as for Garnett but not as freakish.
7)Vince: One of the best offensive players, and can fly.
8)TMac: Great skills, very young & cocky.
9)Franchise: Can do it all, and will get better.
10)Payton: Old but still does it all.

Alternate: Pierce or Kidd.
