That's an interesting view of things...

So I guess neither Jordan nor Pippen belongs on their positional top-10 lists? Because neither won a ring with the other?

This is my list:

1. Larry Bird
2. Scottie Pippen
3. Julius Erving
4. Elgin Baylor
5. Rick Barry
6. John Havlicek
7. Tracy McGrady
8. Dominique Wilkins
9. Bernard King
10. James Worthy

McGrady doesn't have the career accomplishments of the guys below him, due to age, but he has more talent, in my opinion, and impacts the game in more ways.

Re: Top 10 SF's ever

Baylor should be number 2. No SF has any business getting 17 boards a game like he did.

T-Mac over James Worthy?

Why, Minstrel, why do you have the need to be so cruel?

Re: Top 10 SF's ever

pippen was great with jordan but he coulda easily became a 30 PPG 10 rebs 10 assists without em. and for the person who said pippen was not one of the top SF, u probably saw the late scottie pippen, pippen was a shooter and a defender. most shooters go way out late in their careers. its easier to make high % shots then have to make actually shots when ur pushin 40.
