Let's start by making the top 10 list, then we can narrow it down from there. Obviously some names will be on all our lists, but I'm sure some will be different. Here's my top 10, in alphabetical order (by last name).
Larry Bird - 12x all star, 3x champ, 10x all NBA, 3x all defense, 3x MVP, 2x finals MVP
Wilt Chamberlain - 13x all star, 7x scoring champ, 2x champ, 4x MVP, 10x all NBA
Steph Curry - 6x all star, 3x champ, 6x all NBA, 2x MVP
Tim Duncan - 15x all star, 15x all NBA, 5x champ, 3x finals MVP, 15x all defense, 2x MVP
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar - 19x all star, 15x all NBA, 6x champ, 6x MVP, 2x finals MVP
LeBron James - 16x all star, 15x all NBA, 4x MVP, 6x all defense, 3x finals MVP, 3x champ
Magic Johnson - 12x all star, 5x champ, 10x all NBA, 3x MVP, 3x finals MVP
Michael Jordan - 14x all star, 10x scoring champ, 11x all NBA, 9x all defense, 5x MVP, 6x finals MVP
Oscar Robertson - 12x all star, 1x MVP, 11x all NBA
Bill Russell - 12x all star, 11x all NBA, 11x champ, 5x MVP
Guys who are obviously elite Hall of Famers that didn't make the top 10 for me: Jerry West, Moses Malone, Charles Barkley, Julius Erving, Hakeem Olajuwon, David Robinson, Steve Nash, Karl Malone, John Stockton, Isiah Thomas, John Havlicek, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant.
