Show your 5 Greatest of All Time Basketball Edition

[linkager007]

I did this in the hockey forum, so why not the basketball forum as well. This list is a little harder to find a top 5 that is more in common like in hockey so I used the Bill Simmons Pyramid (http://nbalegacy.blogspot.ca/2010/12/sports-guys-updated-hof-pyramid-2010.html) as my list (mainly as well because I don't think I will ever own a Wilt Auto). Here is the top 5:

#5 - Larry Bird

#4 - Earvin "Magic" Johnson

#3 - Kareem "Lew Alcindor" Abdul-Jabbar

#2 - Bill Russell

#1 - Michael Jordan (and my favourite card I ever owned, pulled, looked at, etc )

Thanks for the look. Would love to see others from the list if they are out there. With the list, looking to get Oscar Robertson and Tim Duncan to complete the first level without Wilt. I think Wilt will come in due time when I have $2000 to throw at one.

Will always trade basketball autos for hockey as well.
