With Bill Russell (rightly I think) set at the number one spot, this starts to get interesting. Old timers like Master PO will remember guys like Bob Cousy and John Havlicek. I grew up on Bird and the original Big 3. The younger generation only knows Paul Pierce and grainy footage of generations past. So who's next best? You will decide (and we may learn a thing or two about this site's demographics along the way).
Full list after the break.
