Julius Erving (Dr.J) Lists his top 10 players of All Time

[Hey_zeus]

Good list from his point of view.

 

[Black Lightning]

Putting Karl “The Pedo” Malone in your top ten over Bird is insane.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Karl Malone is interesting, which makes me want to deep dive on a topic I don’t think I ever heard discussed

Is the 4 the weakest position in terms of talent in nba history?
Like the top five power forwards may be weaker than the top five of each other position

 

[Gritsngravy]

How many hall of fame 4s compared to other positions and what was they careers like

 

[Sire366]

interesting. Mine would be

Magic
Curry
Isiah
Oscar
Nash [maybe Russ, Chris Paul, Kidd, Dennis Johnson]

Jordan
Kobe
Wade
West
Iverson

Lebron
Bird
Dr J
KD
Pippen

Tim Duncan
Barkley
KG
Dirk
Malone [Rodman, McHale, Pau maybe]

I'd say PG is the lowest in terms of depth. You fall off quick after 4 to guys who never won titles, or guys who were never the best on their team...

Id go:

Magic
Oscar
Curry
Paul
Nash

Jordan
Kobe
West
Wade
Harden

James
Bird
Durant
Erving
Baylor

Garnett
Nowitzki
Malone
Barkley
Petitt (Duncan would be first if we count him a PF, he played more Center though)

I would say I have PF as the weakest, I do not have a PF in my top 15, but I have 6 in the top 25. I think Giannis overtakes Barkley and Pettit after this year.

I’m not doing all that. Saying the 4 is the weakest position over SG is laughable

[The G.O.D II]

Is it?

Outside Jordan, Kobe, Dwade, and Drexler who is really all time great at that position? Guys like Miller, Allen, Mcgrady are good but not great. Now compare that to Malone, Worthy, Barkley, Garnett, Duncan, Dirk, Giannis, AD

I don’t know, sg might have more depth than power forward

 

[Gritsngravy]

Vince could be a sg, ice man, the pearl , pistol Pete, the logo, joe dumars

It’s a decent position and that’s not including modern players

Granted it’s hard to say who plays what cause dudes is interchangeable, like what was dominque, could he not also be considered a shooting guard

Ray and worthy is debatable, lowkey worthy might’ve had a better overall basketball career including college
