I have no doubt about it: MAGIC JOHNSON

He changed the way we understand basketball right now. He was advanced for his age and didn't stop winning titles. He improved along the years, specially his shooting.

Kareem EASILY. He racked up 6 MVP's and 6 Championships. He is the scoring leader, and no one is even close to him.

I would put Magic and Kobe at a tie right now. If Kobe wins another ring, he'll definitely surpass him.

flawed logic. He won 3 MVPs with the Bucks and has the same amount of championships with the Lakers as Magic does.

Magic also won 3 MVPs with the Lakers. So are you saying Kareem is EASILY the best laker ever because of scoring?

You're grasping at straws here. When people think of Kareem, they don't think of him as a Milwaukee Buck. He is remembered as a Laker by nearly everyone, and I'm not going to diminish his accomplishments/legacy just because he spent part of his career somewhere else.

Of course scoring isn't the ONLY thing he did well. I don't have the time to detail all of his accomplishments, that can be found out easily on Basketball reference sites.

Gotta go with Jerry West as he's had a hand in many different successful eras.
