Fair.I'm not old enough to remember the greats but also the game was so different I usually think of them as a different era and a separate list. I think of late 80s-ish until recently as the next group.
That said I'm not firm on my list other than MJ at 1. I can see arguments for a ton of guys. I probably wouldn't put Magic top 5 just because he cut his career short but other than him I can see 2-5 placing in any order and maybe even 2-7ish.
