They REALLY shouldn’t re-roll it from scratch. They should just add 25 new players. It’s disrespectful to knock someone off the 50 list.
I wonder if they're going to do some sort of dumbass ranking or if they're just going to say "here's our top 75".
Tim, David and Ice should obviously be shoe-ins. I can't see the small market Spurs getting 5 of the top 75 of all time, even though it's deserved.

I agree with you. Folks lose perspective if they haven't actually seen a player perform and players of different eras performed different functions TBH. Power forwards of the 50s and 60s were literally POWER forwards who were expected to do the dirty work inside, not space the floor with 3 point shots. Clyde Lovellete who? Bob Cousy invented ball handling maneuvers in the 50s that players today are trying to emulate, but who among today's fans have even a small grasp of how futuristic those moves were for his time. Already we see Oscar Robertson's career become a distant memory for only the few of us who saw him in person. (Some of us made a college roadtrip from NYC to Cincinnati one weekend to see him play against another powerhouse) Eventually, even the bright stars of Larry Bird and Magic from the later stages of the 20th Century will dim.
Why not just keep it to the top 50 players of the Century? There were plenty of wonderful players before 2000-- and there will be plenty in this century as well.
Manu just on his overall worldly basketball accomplishments. I believe he has 6 or 7 total "rings" if you count Euro and Olympics.
Westbrick is a perenial loser tbh...
The dress will get him in.
he deserved it as fashion icon and biggest stat padder of the century
Well, Manu at least made it to the commercial.
Really nice to see Manu included as he is definitely a legend. Cool to see him and KD joking around in the behind the scenes video. I think it would have been really fun to see Manu play on the same team as KD. I think they would have meshed great together. I'd actually still like to see it if he were to come out of retirement (I think he'd still be able to play).
Westchuck, Clitter Paul, Marshmallow Anthony.....
We better be prepared to roll with Parker and Manu maybe maybe not.
Manu is high to Spurs fans but doesn't have the stats or individual player NBA awards to make a case to be a top 75 player.
Spurs legend Demar Derozan sitting between Kobe and Lebron
I'd say KD needs a ring in Brooklyn to even be considered ahead of Hakeem.
That's the correct Top 10, but Hakeem should be up there before Durant.
Thats how close kobe and lebron will ever get to being MJ. Lebron has a loosing record in the finals.
I see David Robinson and George Gervin were listed in the first 25.
Putting KD in a Nets jersey, Shaq in a Lakers jersey, and LeBron in a Lakers jersey makes no sense at all. KD should be in a Warriors jersey and LeBron a Heat (or maybe Cavs) jersey imo.
doubt there was any thought put into what kd and lebron are wearing beyond just 'current team for current player'
always forget Moses has 3 MVPs
So Kobe is suddenly a top 10 player all-time because he died young?
Maybe they felt sorry for him cause he raped that broad. I don’t care that they got around to putting some Spurs on that list, its a bull list half the mother ers on that front cover happen to be lakers. GTFO.
Tim Duncan was just added to the list today. Obviously that was a given. Some of the new guys I have seen added so far is Dirk,Nash,CP3,AI,Giannis.
