So after ranking all the current players in the NBA in an earlier blog, let's take a look at the All Time Greatest 30 players. Players will be judged on Individual Accolades, Career Statistics, Team Success, Individual Skill and Talent, and Influence on the game of basketball. 1. Michael Jordan (15 seasons 1984-93, 95-98, 01-03) 6 NBA Titles / 6 Finals, 5 x MVP, 6 x Finals MVP 14 x All Star, 3 x All Star Game MVP 10 x All NBA 1st Team, 1 x 2nd Team 1 x DPOY, 9 x All Defense 1st Team 10 x Scoring Champ, 3 x Steals Leader 32,292 Pts (5th All Time), 6,672 Reb, 5,633 Ast, 2,514 Stl (3rd All Time)...

Welcome to Starting 5! Come check out our blog to see team previews, fantasy tips and predictions, rankings and anything else NBA related. We will be having regular dedicated blogs for Top Ten Lists and Who's Better, so one week it may be the Top 10 Greatest Finals Performances and the next week it may be who was better Jason Kidd or Steve Nash?
