Magic
Jordan
LeBron
KG
Hakeem

I'm basing this on achieved talent, not unrealized potential talent. The only pick I'm not sure about is my center - it's obviously a real toss-up between Wilt, Kareem, Robinson, Hakeem and Shaq. Hakeem was by no means the most dominant, but the way he moved and the variety of moves he possessed has never been matched, so I'm gonna give him the nod for talent.

flame if you want, but I'd say that VC had the most PURE TALENT in the history of the NBA..

I might add in Drob in the center position; he was ATHLETIC.

IMO Baron had a lot of unachieved talent (as much as I love him). His combo of size, strength, speed, explosiveness, athleticism, court-vision, and dangerous skills basically made him a super gifted football player in an nba player's body/brain.
However, he spent much of his early career fighting with his coach, injured, etc.

I think I see why people consider Vince Carter suc ha disappointment.

I guess since I don't live on the East Coast, I never bought into the "Next Jordan" hype. I don't even think he has as good of a set of "tools" as Kobe. To think that he is even remotely as talented as MJ is ludicrous, IMO. But if people believe he was more naturally talented than His Airness, than VC's career would obviously be a disappointment.
