When thinking of the greatest players of all-time, NBA fans are immediately going to think of Michael Jordan and the 90s Bulls. Kobe Bryant‘s five championships with the Los Angeles Lakers, Bill Russell‘s dominating run with the Boston Celtics, LeBron James‘ statistical dominance with three different franchises.
It is the common consensus that Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all-time, and while you could make the case and try to argue LeBron or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, most basketball fans gravitate towards Jordan.
Jordan is not the most successful basketball player of all-time, though, if we are going by the way of championships.
