I was talking with my biological dad today, he is 66 (so he has seen it all) and we were talking about greatest players of all-time because of what LeBron has accomplished. He was telling me his greatest players by decade and he had,
60's: Wilt #1, Russell #2.
70's: Lew Alcindor (Kareem) #1, he couldn't give me a 2nd best because he thinks 3 or 4 different players could be there.
80's: Magic #1, Bird #2.
90's: Jordan #1 and that is all he gave me because he says there is no close #2.
2000's: He has Shaq #1 because he thinks Shaq was the most dominant player since Wilt was. He did put Kobe #2.
2010's - 2018: He puts LeBron #1 clear cut.
-The discussion at that point became where does LeBron rank? My Pops list is this:
1. Wilt, yes Wilt #1
2. Jordan
3. Shaq, He has Shaq 3rd. Many will disagree with this but he just thinks he is the closest thing to Wilt we will ever see.
4. Magic
5. LeBron - He doesn't even like LeBron but thinks he deserves to be in the Top 5.
-His list is really interesting. He likes Wilt and Shaq a lot and think both were better than Kareem because of their power.
