A common challenge often handed out in pro basketball chatter is to name your “NBA Mount Rushmore”.  I assume this means the four players you think were the best, who won the most, and had the largest impact on the sport.  I’d ask who you would choose, but it doesn’t work anymore. Too many legends have come through to fill just four spots.

I believe there are 12 guys with strong argument’s.

 

 

MICHAEL JORDAN

LEBRON JAMES 

KAREEM ABDUL-JABBAR

MAGIC JOHNSON 

BILL RUSSELL 

WILT CHAMBERLAIN

KOBE BRYANT

LARRY BIRD 

SHAQUILLE O’ NEAL 

TIM DUNCAN

STEPHEN CURRY

JULIUS ERVING

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Smart arguments could also be made for Jerry West, Oscar Robertson, and Hakeem.

Give Joker some more years of domination and wow.

I know it’s just for fun, but we need a bigger mountain.
