	The purpose of this THREAD is for basketball fans to voice their opinion as to who was the best to ever do it. Michael Jordan is definately at the very top of my list, but with players like Majic Johnson, George Gervin, Julius Erving, Wilt Chamberlain etc...etc.... It's kinda tough for me to choose, but I still think the G.O.A.T (greatest of all time) award Goes to MJ. Tell me what YOU think sportsfans!! And please people, KEEP IT CLEAN!!

	This is always a tough question because all the decades were so different in the style of play and the level of talent around them. When I think about it MJ obviously is the first person that comes to mind, but I don't by any means intend to bash him by saying this, he had to wait for Bird, Magic, Isaiah all to retire before he could really dominate. He definetly counts as one of the best but I'd probably go with Bill Russel simply because he's the only guy who could ever succesfully even make it close to a battle with Wilt. Bill Russel practically created the blocked shot and was athletic enough to run coast to coast, with good hands to handle tricky passes from Cousy. Then after playing great he goes on to be a player/coach and get back to the championship. He's just the man. And all of this is IMO so if you disagree I really can't blame you because there are so many players who could deserve that title.
