Didn't we have the Worthy debate recently? I think his worth is overestimated - no pun intended. Alcindor was on the back end of his career at that point. I'm sure Magic couldn't have won all those championships without Norm Nixon or Jamal Wilkes either, but make zero doubt about it, those were MAGIC's teams.

Actually they were Jerry Buss's teams.

A glaring omission from the NBA Top 50, imo...

I don't know about that Gales......in the 70's-80's the NBA didn't have guys moving like that. The biggest move of that era was Kareem being traded to LA from Milwaukee but at the time Milw. thought they had equal value. They were wrong. Magic would have stayed a Laker as it was his dream to play for them supposedly as a kid.

I'll go with 23.1 points, 10.8 rebounds, 11.5 assists.

Third straight MVP.
