He's top 5. I can see how someone can put him as 5 and I can see how he'll be 3rd.

He gets too much props for playing team defense.

Then you got a guy like Dirk who's team won 50+ games for like 12 years in a row. League MVP, Finals MVP as the MAN...some should call a trend setter. Garnett is an all time great like I said. Top 5 for sure but I'd have him anywhere 3-5 behind Duncan and Dirk.

KG is going to move out later on though. Guys like AD and LMA will pass him

I liked KG more for his defense and intensity.

He was never that alpha dog to me, tho.

For all the sneering & mean mugs, he hardly ever took the intiative to completely take over a game


like the other dudes on the list.

Always thought he could've developed a better post game, to.He had the footwork/coordination to do it, but maybe he was too frail to bang inside?

It would be hard for me to rank him ahead of Malone, Barkley, or Dirk

Exactly. Hes PER and wins were never that good. Not to mention he got bounced out the first round 6 times in a row. And he had solid players like Billups, Wally Z, around him. Hes #4 at best( If Dirk had some semblance of rebounding/defense KG would be behind him)

Its stupid as fukk.

On the back end of his amazing career, he moves to a different position to better accommodate his team. Is Kobe a Small Forward? No? Then Tim Duncan ain't a fukking center. :heh:

Its just so trifling to me.

Technically though..... He did come in as a PF. :lolbron:

I can't believe so many of you have Barkley ahead of Malone. I don't see that argument AT ALL.

1. Duncan
2. Dirk
3. KG
4. Barkley

It burns me to say this but I agree here. I wanna side with KG but Dirk didn't have to run to the East to get his chip, and he did it beating the NBA 2K Heatles in Miami :wow:
