My top 15 NBA players re-ranked

Now that Kobe passed Jordan on the scoring list, here's my new ranking of my top 15 NBA players ever:

1. MJ – best basketball player ever
2. Russell – best winner in sports history
3. Wilt – best Center ever
4. Kobe – best Laker ever, got robbed of at least one MVP by Nash
5. Magic – best PG ever
6. Kareem – most consistently great player
7. Duncan – best PF ever even though he’s really a Center
8. Bird – best SF ever even though he’s really a shooting PF
9. Big O – defined a style of play many would use for decades
10. Jerry West – the logo for a reason
11. LeBron – will crack the top 10 if he wins a title in Cleveland
12. Shaq – a force no one could handle
13. Hakeem – two titles in the Jordan-less years
14. Malone – scoring machine, better for longer than Barkley
15. Stockton – all-time leader in assists and steals
(16. Dirk - best international player ever)

My life will be complete if LBJ wins a title in CLE.
