LBJ already is a top 4 if we don't count rings. If we do then Derek Fisher should be on the list as well.

He is about the same size of Bird and Magic but he is 10 times more athletic than Bird and Magic combined. I never seen Oscar played but I doubt Oscar is more athletic than LBJ. Wilt and Kareem are from an earlier era so while they do dominate their respective era, watching their archive films are like watching plays in slow motion nowadays.

It's always hard to compare players from different era but if you have to pick one player to start your team, I will pick MJ ahead of LBJ. Then maybe Wilt or Kareem but honestly, I never seen Wilt play and I've only seen Kareem in his worse years play so I"ll have a hard time picking Wilt and Kareem.

No way I'll pick Bird, Magic or Oscar ahead of LBJ. So at worse, LBJ is the 4th best by my book.
