Message: [QUOTE="dasher, post: 1794680, member: 6061"] basketball's great players win. It is the one sport where the best player can dominate more than any other. With that said...1. Bill Russell. The old line that he had great players with him, sure. But it was always different players. They came and went. But Russell kept on winning. 11 titles out of 13 years. 2. Mike Jordan. He was hurt a bit by not having a second greeat team for his Bulls to play against. But that isn't his fault. A great performer in the greatest moments. 3. Larry Bird. Did amazing things all the time. Great passer. Great shooter. 4. magic Johnson. Could easily have been switched with Bird. 5. Lebron James great athletic body. Can dominate with it. but doesn't really make the players around him that much better. Takes pressure off of them but not much more. [/QUOTE]
