The top five active NBA Players in the league today.
Tim Duncan
This Center should be considered the greatest power forward of all time. He's a double-double machine and won 4 NBA Finals in a decade. He was part of the hope-to-be dynasty of the Spurs. Without this giant, the Spurs maybe wouldn't even nick the playoffs.
Shaquille O' Neal
-One of the greatest centers of all time. Despite his 60 percent from the charity stripe, this guy is 20 and 10 every single night. Just like the Tim Duncan situation, without Shaq, Dwyane Wade couldn't single handedly took the took down the Dallas Mavericks without him.
Kobe Bryant
The reason this guy isn't 1st or 2nd is because he won all his championships with Shaq, when he left Shaq won another NBA Title proving his place and he is still a great player. He is the greatest basketball player at this point because of his ability to score. He took the Scoring Title 2 years in a row and dropped 81 points ( Second Highest in history to Wilt Chamberlain) on the Raptors.
Dirk Nowitzki
If you watched the 2006 Playoffs, his series with the San Antonio Spurs was crazy. He clutched and took his team to the Finals. What 7 foot guard can you get that can shoot the 3 like Ray Allen and post you up like Tim Duncan. And edging the great Steve Nash in MVP Race.
Lebron James
A person this young who dish the ball out and fill up the box-score like crazy. This a Hall Of Famer in the making. He's going to have a great career and he single handedly took down the Pistons and took them to the NBA Finals for the first time in their franchise history.
