[PistolPeteJR]

The reasoning for leaving him out is pretty obvious, even if you don't like the criterion

Even with that, I just don’t see it honestly

which part is confusing to you? do i have the top 3 wrong in your eyes? top 5? top 8? sorry, not sure what it is about that list you're not understanding. that's one of the most accurate top 21 list you will ever find. i'll admit it's not the most orthodox top 21, but it is the most correct top 21 or close to it.

MJ is #1 and Wade is a top 20 player, other than that I agree.

[SpreeS]

So many years I have stable TOP20

KAJ Wilt Russell O’Neal Hakeem DRob Moses
Duncan KG Dirk Malone Barkley
Erving Bird James
Jordan Kobe West
Magic Oscar

But now I need reconsider who must leave this list due Curry and Durant. Most likely Moses and Barkley must leave it.

Next 20

Mikan Ewing Moses Jokic
Petitt Barkley Giannis
Baylor Pippen Barry Hondo Kawhi
Wade Drexler Harden
Paul Stockton Nash Frazier Kidd

The last 10

Miller Gervin Davis Payton Gilmore Reed Thomas Allen Howard Pierce
