Has there ever been a NBA player to go out on top?

[TheGreatShowtime]

Jason Kidd went out in the second round with the Knicks.

Forgot about that

 

[Black_Panther_JS]

Kobe

 

[King Poetic]

David Robinson in 03

And on a lesser note Steve Kerr and back on top today

 

[premier58]

Bill Russell is the obvious answer..

 

[JAY?]

Jason Kidd went out in the second round with the Knicks.

As a Nets fan I refuse to acknowledge any involvement he had with that franchise

 

[ALonelyDad]

David Robinson? But he wasn't really the man in his final year i don't think. Don't even remember now.

Peyton isn't the man either, it was the defense..so David Robinson comparison is pretty fair

 

[BodieBroadus]

David wasn't no slouch in '03. Huge reason they chipped.

That walk-off.

 

[Made Myself A Boss]

Gary Payton, with the Heat

 

[LightSkinYeshua]

Marshawn Lynch duh


Edit: Just realized this said nba players... fukk

So david robinson

 

[SteelCitySoldier]

Magic?

It wasn't voluntary though

Naw he came back and played again in '96 I think and played horribly in the playoffs.

 

[Truefan31]

Robert Parrish with the 97 bulls lol

 

[Juggalo Fred]

Bill Russell

The GOAT

Lol, even if he didn't. He had HIV. IDC what he did in the NBA, theres no way you're going out on top if you retire cuz of that.

Duncan Da Gawd could have in '14, but the boy still wants more

 

[Cool Hand Luka]

The Admiral

What a guy
