Parade Magazine came out today with their list of the top ten all-time NFL players (in alphabetical order). I thought it might be interesting for us to list our top ten all-time NBA players.
Here's mine (in alphabetical order): Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Elgin Baylor Larry Bird Wilt Chamberlain Bob Cousy Magic Johnson Michael Jordan George Mikan Oscar Robertson Bill Russell I probably could really make a top 20 or 30 (or 40, etc). And don't give me any grief about George Mikan. He was twice as good as the next closest player of his era, which is a good way to compare players of different eras. There probably wouldn't even be an NBA without him. Yeah - I know a lot of you would put others on this list (Nate Archibald, Hakeem Olajiwon, etc.) but remember if you put someone else on, you have to take one of the others off. That's what makes it so tough. Oh yeah - I hope someone suggests Paul Mokeski just for fun. ![]()

I don't know who I would take off but, I would put Pat Riley on the list. Only reason is because he is from Schenectady, NY. (so am I)
![]() "Born in Schenectady, NY, Riley attended Linton High School where he became a two-sport star in basketball and football. He was a member of the Linton basketball team that beat historic Power Memorial High and center Lew Alcindor, who, as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, would later lead Riley’s Lakers to greatness. As a tribute to his accomplishments, Linton renamed its gym in Riley’s honor in 1997 and inducted him into its hall of fame in 2000." |

I was always a Manny Sokol fan. Not one of the great NBA officials- fer sure- but, man, was he funny to watch. |
