[Spursfanfromafar]

Here are the top 50 winningest players in the NBA who have played atleast 874 (regular season + playoff) games (thats how much Manu Ginobili) has played, a rough equivalent of 10 seasons including playoffs.

Haha Will Perdue actually made some sort of list, he is the reason why Michael Jordan is regarded as one of the best. Well him and Luc Longle.

I put this stat up because it is one of the most notoriously difficult stat to get online..

[spectator]

i would really like to see the breakdown of regular season vs playoffs as far as wins go. depending on how this season plays out, timmy may have a shot at top 3 most playoff wins IIRC. let's get the 5th :lobt2:spurs!

The Black Bean below Horace Grant. :lol

thanks for the new post - i guess timmy could finish top 3 in most playoff wins (HOF only). what an awesome career he has had!

[UZER]

Haha Will Perdue actually made some sort of list, he is the reason why Michael Jordan is regarded as one of the best. Well him and Luc Longle.


http://resources3.news.com.au/images/2007/04/07/va1237241446699/Luc-Longley-and-Michael-Jordan-AFP-5441785.jpg

Damn Michael has big hands. And you you what they say about guys with big hands?......they have better control with the ball.

Seriously though, ever wonder why jordans moves always look different than anyone we compare him to as for as athleticism? He was able to move the ball through the air so much because of how big his hands were.

[spurraider21]

wonder how much higher MJ would have been if he didn't play for the freakin Wizards

[Spursfanfromafar]

wonder how much higher MJ would have been if he didn't play for the freakin Wizards

MJ would have won 758/1109 games if he had retired with the Bulls. Good enough for 8th position below Rodman and one above Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

[hater]

howcome Big Shot Rob is not in blue font???? :pctoss

[bdictjames]

Great stat. Mindblowing, to say the least, how many Spurs we have on top, and how lucky this franchise has been.

[barakz21]

MJ would have won 758/1109 games if he had retired with the Bulls. Good enough for 8th position below Rodman and one above Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

And if he didn't retire. Twice.

[TampaDude]

Manu Ginobili 2003 2013 874 621 71.05
Tony Parker 2002 2013 1035 726 70.14
Tim Duncan 1998 2013 1381 968 70.09

Among currently active NBA players, the three players with the best win % are Timmy, Tony, and Manu. :hat
