I'm sure you picked the number 51 for unbiased and logical reasons which you can explain as opposed to vindictive, obsessive, and laughable reasons, as it may appear to some.
Right now...
Kobe Bryant, 35, 97.22%
Michael Jordan, 34, 94.44%
Jerry West, 21, 58.33%
Allen Iverson, 21, 58.33%
Dwyane Wade, 10, 27.78%
Reggie Miller, 7, 19.44%
Clyde Drexler, 6, 16.67%
Pete Maravich, 5, 13.89%
Bryant/Jordan/West/Iverson...One just doesn't quite seem to belong up there to me. Iverson tied with Jerry West?!?

...Now West was a bad cat(smooth as shot), but all the 4 above would have went batshit in West's era and no way he would guard them.

Shit I didn't think Iverson was either

One of the reasons he chose Wade, because of PER. Sometimes you have to ignore the trolls. He cant live up to his fathers expectations. So now you have to score 51 or more in playoff game to be great.
I disagreed with the order but the player listing is correct.
Easily the top 4 based on skill level and merited accolades.
Judging bball talent is not something Taharqa does well.
Same list i chose
This is why i think these debates dont work...Today's athlete would destroy in yesterdays game...
Much better than you. You think Carmelo Anthony is better than LeBron James. LOL.
Jordan, Kobe, Wade and West.

Pretty much. I'm trying hard to put the Pistol or the Pearl or anybody, but you're right. Just can't see anybody else on these guys level. the Answer is probably closest.
Jordan
West
Kobe
Iverson
Iceman
Gervin should be on that list
West
Kobe
Iverson
Iceman
Gervin should be on that list
Wow 2 pages and no mention of Oscar Robertson smh im out
I never said that.
forgot about the Iceman. Roger Brown too. they're just a little below top 3.
I thought the same thing, but OP put him in point guard category.

Pierce and ray Allen were on the same team and pierce was better and was finals MVP. If ray on p.p should be on.
Pierce played shooting guard about 6/7 of his career.
He played with Ricky, Eric Williams, Walter mcarty, and Gerald green and Ricky davis and the 3.

I've always heard him discussed as a point guard. You're telling me I'm wrong?
Jerry West- 44, 59.46%
Allen Iverson- 42, 56.76%
Dwyane Wade- 17, 22.97%
I like Allen Iverson but he is overrated as FUCK on here.

GOAT
Sheeeeeeeeeeit. Adjust Iverson's numbers for pace at least.
When we talk freakish size with ability it's Wilt, Shaq, and Lebron. Iverson's quickness was borderline inhuman. Think of his pace-adjusted numbers in West's era(not to mention less athletic perimeters). West was the better shooter, but Iverson's quickness at its peak was insane. And Iverson didn't even take care of himself. Drank like a fish. Smoked. And still was too quick for the modern athlete.
I never heard him really discussed as anything. He was so damned good that he played whatever he wanted.
