US media commented on top 20 stars in history: Durant beats Curry and ranks 12th, Kobe is 8th, and James is top two

On June 4, US media often like the ranking of historical stars. They rank almost once every season. The purpose of their work is to improve the historical ranking of active players. After all, after a season of hard work, some active stars have improved in data accumulation or honor. Previously, US media selected the top 20 stars in history, and 3 active players have entered the list. Let’s take a look at it?

11-20th place

11th place is Olajuwon. Although Olajuwon only has two championships and one FMVP trophy, don't forget that he won two championships in the 1990s, and was considered to have won the single-core championship in 1994, with extremely high gold content. He is also the king of blocking shots in history, and the best center forward in history with offense and defense. Durant is the 12th place. Durant has two FMVP trophys and 1 regular season MVP. He is one of the best scorers in history and has won the scoring champion for 4 times.

13 is Curry, and it is a bit unreasonable to rank Durant ahead of Curry. Curry has two MVPs and 1 FMVP, and the two are on the same level as the big honors, but Curry has more than Durant's 4 championships. He is still the first scorer in history and an epoch-making player. I think Curry is close to the top ten in history now. The 14th place is Oscar Robertson. Big O has not had many great honors, but he has strong abilities. He averaged 30+ games in 6 seasons and has achieved a triple-double average in the season. He has also made outstanding contributions to racial equality and has a great influence.

15 Karl Malone, although Malone did not have a championship, he snatched the MVP trophy from Duncan and Jordan, and was still the top three in history's total score. He entered the finals twice, and although both lost, he lost to Jordan, which was extremely valuable. The 16th place is Moses Malone. Jokic's current great honor is the same as Moses Malone, both of which are 1 championship, 1 FMVP and 3 MVPs. In the future, with Jokic's data accumulating, he may be among the top 20 in history.

17th place is Garnett. Although Garnett only has one second-in-command champion, his historical status has always been highly favored. He can rank in this position because he is comprehensive enough and was considered a league appearance in the early 2000s, with great influence enough, and the first power forward holding the ball in history. 18th place is Jerry West, the only loser in West's history, and he has led the team to the finals 9 times and is the top scorer in the finals.

19 is No Tianwang, the first person in European basketball in the history of the NBA. He won the single core championship, and was still the sixth in the history of the total score. If it weren't for his success, there wouldn't be so many European players who dared to enter the NBA to prove themselves. The 20th place is Dr. J. Irving. Although Dr. J only won one regular season MVP in the NBA, he was definitely the first player at that time when he was in the ABA, and Moses Malone was not as good as him.

1-10th place

The first place is James. Seeing this, many James' black fans will probably be dissatisfied. To be honest, the US media often deliberately makes such gimmicks. The top ten in history is probably the most likely one in history. What can be complained about is to change the position of the first person in history. James is the most versatile player in history, and the second is Jordan. Jordan is the god of basketball and promotes the NBA to the world. In terms of the development of basketball and the NBA, Jordan is unique.

No. 3 is Jabbar. Relying on his long enough career and the honors and data to resist playing, it is not a big problem to rank among the top three in history. His total score, rebounds and blocks in his career are all the top three in history, with 6 MVPs and 6 championships, which are difficult to reach. The fourth place is the Magician. The Magician is the best point guard in history. The reason why he says this is because he has the most 3FMVP and 3MVP positions. The key is that he led the team to the finals 9 times in 13 years in his career, and his team is too strong.

No. 5 Bill Russell. If Russell was born in the 1980s and had eight consecutive championships, he might have been the first person in history. Since he was a player in the 1960s, there were few league teams and insufficient promotion level at that time, so the value of his 11 championships has always been questioned. The sixth is Chamberlain. The coach was not fully recognized because he was a player in the 1960s. His data is too terrifying. He is the leader in total rebounding, averaging 50+ games in a single season and 100 points in a single game. It is estimated that it will be difficult for anyone to break his record in the future.

No. 7 Bird, who was James' most all-round forward before, and he was the second player in the 1980s. If it weren't for the fact that the number of championships was not as good as that of the Magician, he might have become the first player. Bird has been in the regular season MVP for three consecutive times, but like Curry, he had been snatched away by his teammates in the FMVP trophy. The 8th place is Kobe. Kobe has reached the 8th position in history with his great influence. He is one of the best skilled players in history.

9th O'Neal. Although O'Neal is the most dominant center in history and the only second player in history to achieve a third-time FMVP, his peak period in his career is too short, and his regular season load management also made him miss a lot of honors. Duncan is ranked 10th. Because Duncan is not popular with the media, he is the number one power forward in history and only ranked in this position. He reached the finals and won 5 championships, won 3 FMVPs and 2 MVPs, and his ranking is low.
