Shaquille O neal should be out. He may have been a good player but he sold his soul when he made that film "Kazaam" (Watch the Nostalgia Critic review)

Don't forget Shaq-Fu for things outside of basketball he has failed in.

Jason Kidd is 28?!?!? He should be 40+ I don't see Tim Duncan 9. He should be like in the mid teens.

Duncan is often considered one of, if not the best PF in the NBA ever.

By the look of the stats and other things KG has better stats. I don't see KG so far from TD/.

Kg doesn't have better stats >_>
Regular Season
TD: GP GS MPG FG% 3P% FT% RPG APG SPG BPG PPG
Career 899 898 36.9 .507 .188 .685 11.7 3.2 .8 2.3 21.4
KG: GP GS MPG FG% 3P% FT% RPG APG SPG BPG PPG
1055 1018 37.6 .496 .283 .782 11.1 4.3 1.4 1.6 20.2
And in the playoffs:
TD: GP GS MPG FG% 3P% FT% RPG APG SPG BPG PPG
160 160 39.8 .501 .143 .689 12.6 3.5 .7 2.6 23.3
KG: GP GS MPG FG% 3P% FT% RPG APG SPG BPG PPG
73 73 41.0 .470 .318 .776 12.4 4.4 1.3 1.6 21.6
Duncan is also a 3x Finals MVP (Garnett has none), a 2x regular season MVP (Garnett has 1), All-Star MVP (Garnett has 1), Rookie Of The Year (Garnett has none), has only been out of the top 10 in MVP voting once (this season), Has been in the All-NBA 1st or 2nd teams every year since his rookie year, 7th most efficient player in NBA history (Garnett is 14th), 3rd in defensive rating all-time (Garnett is 34th), and is the reason the Spurs won four titles.

Yeah. Really late. Here's my take:
-Shaq should be lower (still top 10 though)
-Switch Bill Russell and Wilt
-Big O #4
-Magic, Kareem, and Bird higher (MJ, Russ, Wilt, Big O, Kareem, Magic, Bird)
-Karl Malone higher (second all-time scorer anyone?)
-Jerry West higher (he's the freakin logo for a reason)
-Tim Duncan lower (not too much lower)
-Jason Kidd definitely lower (as much as I like him, I can't take him over some other guys)
-Steve Nash? Dennis Rodman? Nate Thurmond? wtf? GTFO my list
-Pistol Pete, Walton, Parish, and Worthy removed? wtf?
-Pippen should be lower (he was good, but not that good)
Otherwise, it's hard to complain.

Seriously? He's not that good.
Also, even though I don't like him, TD>KG. I'd take Duncan over Garnett any day. Duncan is definitely top 10 imo.

But he could get onto that list: MVP, 9 time all-NBA, improves in the playoffs. And his career averages are good. He's not top 30, but he could definatly get in.

| Steve Nash? Dennis Rodman? |
Well, Nash is a 2x MVP, they're going to find it hard to remove him. Rodman though, only has his rebounding and defence going for him.

Definately
| QUOTE |
| Jerry West higher |
I can only see him going one higher, maybe 2 (8th/9th)
