However, among the top ten small forwards in history judged by the authoritative American media Fox Sports, LeBron James lost to a famous former Green Army player larry bird.
In addition, paul pierce, the current captain of the Celtics, ranked 10 on the list, and Scotty Pippen ranked sixth. ..
First place: larry bird (1979-92)
In this list, Bird may be the player with the worst physical condition.
In the position of small forward who needs sports talent most, Bird's physical quality is not outstanding, but his excellent hand feeling, outstanding ball dealer and strong fighting spirit have made him a great success.
In the1980s, the whole NBA was dominated by Bird and Magic Johnson. Bird won three championships and three consecutive MVP honors. He is the best small forward in history.
Second place: lebron james (2003-present)
Only 27 years old, the peak of his career has just arrived. He was a three-time MVP winner and realized his MVP dream in the championship and finals, leaving behind great names such as Baylor, Hawary Chek and Owen.
However, LeBron is not enough in the championship honor. He needs to win more championships to become the number 1 in history.
Third place: Juliet Owen (197 1-87)
Dr J can surpass Baylor and Hawary Chek because of his contribution to basketball.
Owen has excellent physical fitness and extraordinary creativity. Three-time MVP winner of ABA League, after entering the NBA, 198 1 year regular season MVP, 1983 helped the 76ers win the championship, but more importantly, his highly ornamental style greatly promoted basketball and became an idol of an era.
Fourth place: John Havrichek (1962-78)
Cardinal auerbach has always called Hawary Chek the "courage" of the Celtic dynasty. He is really fearless at both ends of the court and never knows fatigue.
Hawary Chek's first or second team in the season 1 1 time, averaging 20.8 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists in his career and winning eight championships.
The most famous performance is that 1965 steals in the Eastern Conference finals helped the team win the division championship. "Hawary Chek steals the ball!" That famous comment has appeared in the playback of classic shots countless times.
Fifth place: elgin baylor (1858- 197 1)
Baylor averaged 27.4 points 13.5 rebounds and 4.6 assists in his career. Unfortunately, he never won a championship, thanks to the powerful Celtics at that time.
Baylor, who is 6' 5 ",is not in excellent physical condition, but this tireless running machine can always rely on hard work to get opportunities, which makes him score more than 34 points per game for three consecutive seasons and make first-team appearances 10 times.
Sixth place: Scott Pippen (1987-2008)
Because he and Jordan have made so many brilliant achievements, the evaluation of him by later generations is polarized, either overestimated or despised.
But everyone agrees that Pippen is indeed one of the most versatile players in history. As the best No.2 player, he won six championships with Jordan.
As for how he will behave after leaving Jordan? In the year when Jordan retired from baseball, Pippen ranked third in the MVP selection, which is enough to show his strength, but it seems that Pippen, nicknamed Batman, is actually a more suitable position for Robin Hood to assist Batman.
Seventh place: james worthy (1982-94)
Worthy averaged 17.6 points and 5. 1 rebounds in his career. He is the third person in the performance era of the Lakers 1980, and he doesn't look very good.
But you should know that Worthy averaged 2 1.5 points in the playoffs, while during the three consecutive championships of Lakers 1985-88, Worthy averaged 2 1.5 points, 23.7 points and 22 points in the playoffs respectively, and he even played in the seventh game of 1988 finals.
Eighth place: rick barry (1965-80)
Many people know that Barry is an excellent pitcher and a great free throw shooter, but they may not know that Barry's free throw percentage can reach 90% in his career, and only mark price and Nash can do better than him in history.
Perhaps even more incredible is that Barry averaged 35.6 points in his second year in the NBA, helping the Warriors win the championship with 1975.
In addition, Barry is an excellent ball handler and passer. He is the most ornamental player of his time, and young people like to imitate him.
Ninth place: dominique wilkins (1982-99)
Wilkins is first remembered by the world because he is the best dunker in history.
You know, how many people in this world can beat Jordan in the dunk contest? Wilkins did this with the perfect performance of 1985, and his dunk performance was praised as "the essence of human movies", which was really pleasing to the eye.
Wilkins' shooting ability is average, with a score of 8 1% hitting the basket, but he can average more than 25 points per game for consecutive 10 seasons. Although Wilkins was never close to the championship trophy because he was in the same era as the powerful Celtic dynasty at that time, he did create a legendary era for the eagle.
Tenth place: paul pierce (occupation 1998 to present)
Paul pierce has become the most scoring player in Celtic history except Bird and Hawary Ceck, averaging 22 points per game in his career.
In addition, Truth was selected to the All-Star Team nine times, and won the NBA championship in 2008 and the MVP in the finals.
Moreover, Pierce, as the leader of a special team, will be remembered by future generations. He, Garnett and ray allen started the Big Three era of NBA.
