Best Basketball Players 2000-2011

The Top Ten
1 Tim Duncan Timothy Theodore "Tim" Duncan is an American professional basketball player who has played his entire career for the San Antonio Spurs of the National Basketball Association.

He isn't the best. He is a good all-around player.

2 LeBron James LeBron Raymone James is an American professional basketball player for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association. LeBron has played for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat, and the Lakers.

You can't judge a player just because he's a better dunker. I don't think that LeBron is the best yet... I think that he has great potential to be the greatest basketball ever but he will have to work very hard to beat mj. But for the list of 2000 to 2011 I think we've seen enough to know that he passed kobe and everyone else. Look how the Cleveland just died without lebron this year. I think next year miami will do much better now that lebron and the heat got used to each other. I just don't think he was used to being with them at the beginning of the year and that's why they're not in first place, but next year they'll for sure be.

Lebron's not a better outside shooter than kobe but that's not his job. For that there's guards but of course lebron's a great shooter. Kobe isn't much better than lebron at shooting, but lebron is a much better inside and much stronger player than kobe is.

Now I'm not underrating kobe here, kobe is for sure the second greatest player and ...more

HE'S AWESOME. NO ONE CAN TOUCH THIS MAN. HE'S OFF THE CHAIN MAN. AND HAVE I MENTIONED AWESOME. HIS WORK ETHIC IS AMAZING AND YOU WOULD NEVER WANNA PLAY OFFENSE AGAINST THIS DUDE BECAUSE HE WILL BLOCK YOU SO BAD THAT THE BALL WOULD TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD AND BACK AND YOU'LL BE ON THE FLOOR CRYING. AND HAVE I MENTIONED HE IS AWESOME.

MAN you CAN'T DISS JAMES I MEAN HE'S BETTER THAN MJ (that's right I said it) he can shoot 3 pointers now even he can dunk he can pass he can jump like the position magic played in the 1980 NBA finals C-F-G rover no one can stop LeBRON on the fast break if you see him play KOBE man you'll see he is the second best nba player today only trailing to wade

he's just awesome man, his dunks his three pointers, have you seen him shoot his halfcourt and his buzzerbeaters are countless. He's AWESOME

3 Kobe Bryant Kobe Bryant (1978 - 2020) was an American retired professional basketball player. He played his entire 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association. Kobe Bryant has won 5 NBA championships with the Lakers and was the all-time leading scorer in Lakers franchise history. ...read more.

Kobe is the closest thing there will ever be to Jordan. His killer instinct and desire to have the ball in his hands in the most high pressure stakes is what Kobe has that Lebron will never have even with all the god given talent on this earth. Kobe is just so much more mentaly superior to Lebron when the game matters most. Jordan 6/6 in finals Kobe 5/6 Lechoke 1/3 end of discussion.

An MJ type of player... I has a lot of things to say... But.. I will give you 3 facts about him

1st. -he is a better shooter than Michael

2nd-he is better than lebron and the decision he had done.

3rd-he is a better leader and a better example, he is making his teammates better in and off the court

Lebron just chokes in the fourth quarter, he'll never be as good as kobe. To be the best player of all time, kobe just needs another championship and a few more consistent seasons to beat MJ

Kobe's game play is just crazy he can do more than just dunk, he's clutch and he's never left his team to join up with 2 other super stars and lose an nba final

4 Dwyane Wade Dwyane Tyrone Wade Jr. is an American professional basketball player for the Miami Heat of the National Basketball Association.

He doesn't have signs of fear on his face of loosing the game, in fact he fights more, Dwayne is awesome... Love to watch his game.. I wish he succeed much and entertain all of us a lot

He isn't the best, nut he's pretty damn close to Dirk!

5 Shaquille O'Neal Shaquille Rashaun O'Neal, nicknamed Shaq, is a retired American professional basketball player who is currently an analyst on the television program Inside the NBA. He is known for his fun, friendly personality, and is one of the most beloved athletes of all time.

He sucks now, but when he was playing with the Lakers, he was the best dunker at the time.

6 Steve Nash Stephen John Nash, is a Canadian retired professional basketball player who played in the National Basketball Association.
