So I asked ChatGPT for a list of the best players. I ran it 3 times so see if its opinion would change. For the most part, the list remained the same, with KG and Dr. J making an appearance on the 3rd list. The order seemed really locked in, only a couple of players moved around. Hakeem moved into the top 10 kicking Kobe down on one list. The top 7 never moved.
The only one that I would move up would be Bill Russell, seeing as how he 11-peat’d with the Celtics.
- Michael Jordan
- LeBron James
- Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
- Magic Johnson
- Larry Bird
- Shaquille O’Neal
- Tim Duncan
- Kobe Bryant
- Wilt Chamberlain
- Bill Russell
- Hakeem Olajuwon
- Oscar Robertson
- Karl Malone
- Jerry West
- Moses Malone
- Dirk Nowitzki
- Charles Barkley
- Kevin Durant
- Stephen Curry
- Dwyane Wade
- John Stockton
- David Robinson
- Elgin Baylor
- Isiah Thomas
- Scottie Pippen
I always forget just how good curry is and my opinion of him with regards to the all time greats will fade. Then I’ll watch him play late one random night when he is absolutely cooking and I’m reminded that he is, in fact, insane.
Insane is such a good descriptor for him! Hard to use that word for anyone else playing right now
