    Anyone else find it astounding how frequent Chris Webber appears on people's list.

    I like him, too.

    No. This thread should be so miserable that we all start to sing:

    Tough list because is usually don't care about players unless they're on my team

    In no order, except MJ

    Jordan
    Payton - great defender and I liked his cockiness
    Richmond - great shooter and smooth to watch
    Mourning
    Tim Hardaway - "I got skills" , killer crossover
    Moses - yeah he played for HOU, but I missed most of his career. People don't usually like/respect players unless they saw them in their primes
    Ewing
    Mugsy - short and good
    Spud Webb - short with mad hops
    LeBron

    #1: Michael Jordan
    #2: Wilt Chamberlain
    #3: Larry Bird
    #4: Magic Johnson
    #5: Grant Hill
    #6: Dwyane Wade
    #7: Kevin Garnett
    #8: Penny Hardaway
    #9: Shawn Kemp
    #10: Chris Webber

    Honorable Mention: Reggie Miller, Shaq, Kidd, Chris Mullin, Mitch Richmond, Jason Williams, Pistol Pete

    I can't put any current players(exception prime Wade) because they are enemies, but i admit i love Anthony Davis and Steph Curry and they could easily bump Webber and Kemp off the list one day.
