These days, everyone has been arguing about who’s the best top 5 NBA players. But I disagree of what they say. Everyone has their own opinions of players and not everyone will agree with you. Below are the top 5 NBA players of all-time of their positions. 

Now LeBron James I put in the 5th all time best. He didn’t go to college and he has now experiencing 14 years of basketball. He was drafted in 2003, 1sr round, overall by CLE(Cleveland). In his regular seasons averages he has 27.2, regular season totals points is 29,492 and regular seasons misc totals points is .539. (ESPN). He has switched back and forth with heat and cavaliers, he is a great basketball player but I don’t know I just put him on the 5th. 

Stephen Curry is the fourth best in men’s basketball. He went to Davidson college and now is playing 8 years of basketball so far. He was drafted in 2009 1st round, overall  by GS(Golden State). In regular seasons averages he has 22.9, regular season totals points is 13,694 so far, and in regular season misc totals points(How many points you missed) is . 575. (ESPN). He is the youngest in the Golden State Warriors, he has both sides were he is not good on the whole game.

Shaquille O’ Neal is the 3rd all time center best in my opinion. He went to LSU(Louisiana State University) and was drafted in 1992 1st round, overall by ORL(Orlando). He had played 19 years of the NBA. In regular seasons averages he had 23.7 points, regular season totals points is 28,596, and regular season misc totals points is .582. (ESPN). Shaquille was a big man and great basketball skills. Sometimes he had a rough game so that’s why he is in third on my list. 

I put Kobe Bryant in 2nd top best shooting guard of all time player because he has won 5 out of 6 championships. He didn’t go to college and he was drafted in 1996 1st round, overall by CHA(Charlotte Hornets). He had played 20 YEARS of professional basketball with the Lakers. In regular seasons averages he had 25.0 points, regular season totals points is 33,643, and regular season misc totals points is .482. He was also a great time player!(ESPN). He had many opponents where he could make and shoot a three-pointer right by them. He could shoot and move without losing the ball!

Yes, some of you will disagree but this my opinion. Michael Jordan had won 6 out of 6 championships. He was drafted in 1984, 1st round, overall by Chi(Chicago). He went to North Carolina of college and had played 15 years of NBA. In regular seasons, he had 30.1 points, regular season totals points is 32,292 and in regular season misc totals points .509. (ESPN).  I put Michael Jordan 1st all time he was a great shooting guard and we had moves that were incredible. I never seen no one jump from a three-pointer and dunk a ball that far!

Overall, these are my top 5 best NBA players. Basketball is a very great sport to argue about to see which players are the best. These players show fans their personality through what they say on TV or online.  They show good teamwork.  They work hard in practice and in the game. Also, they have really good moves.  For these reasons all of these players deserve to be on this list.
