The NBA has seen a plethora of legendary players showcase their incredible talent on the hardwood.

But when it comes to some of the greatest players of all time, there are a few names that always come up.

The likes of Michael Jordan, LeBron James, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar are always mainstays in debates about the greatest NBA players of all time.

Veteran NBA analyst Stephen A. Smith recently shared his take on the top-five NBA players of all time, via “First Take” on Twitter.

As mentioned in his tweet, Smith believes Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time.

The renowned NBA analyst had James in second position, Abdul-Jabbar in third, Magic Johnson in fourth, and Bill Russell in fifth.

To be honest, there aren’t many who would disagree with Smith’s take on the GOAT debate.

After all, without Jordan, the NBA might have never reached the heights that it has reached today.

Over the years, the only player who has somewhat challenged Jordan’s GOAT status is none other than James.

Sure, Jordan is a more decorated player than James, but many believe that the number one overall pick from the 2003 NBA Draft surpassed Jordan from an individual statistical standpoint.

James managed to become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer last season, and he has his eyes set on claiming his fifth NBA title this year, which would certainly further his case to be the Greatest of All Time.
