On August 4, the list of top 100 stars in NBA history was updated. The rankings of many stars caused dissatisfaction and controversy among fans, but the only one who was criticized among the top 10 was LeBron James, who was hailed as the number one active player. In this list, Jordan is the first person in history, but James is ranked second and has been questioned by many people, especially the players in the top ten who have played against James on the court many times, seem to be better in terms of record and other aspects.

First of all, James' personal honor is unquestionable. He has set countless personal records in NBA history, many of which even surpass Jordan. What he was questioned about was the honor of the championship. Although James also held four championship rings, his gold medal seemed a little dim compared to other stars. Jordan led the team to win 6 championships by one by one at the peak, and he also won three consecutive championships twice.

Other contemporary stars Kobe, Curry, and Duncan, who also have 4 championship rings, are also one by one. They are not like James who has achieved his first career championship with the Heat after leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers. Later, they returned to the Cavaliers and joined the Lakers to win the championship with their super giant teammates.

James' only two finals in his career to win the championship were the Warriors with exhausted energy and the Spurs whose GDP was already in decline. In the early days, James was on the side where the Cavaliers entered the finals for the first time. The peak Spurs easily swept the Cavaliers to win the championship 4-0, and created a famous historical scene after the game. Duncan said to the young James, "The future is yours." As a result, the year after being narrowly defeated by the Heat and suffered a defeat, Duncan led the Spurs to avenge James with a big score of 4-1 in the following year's finals, winning the fifth championship in history, breaking the top three Heats.

Curry's four career championships have also defeated the team led by James to win the championship three times, and maintained a complete record in the finals of the two. Among the top 100 stars, Duncan and Curry both ranked behind James, ranking seventh and tenth respectively.

In addition, Kobe was ranked 11th and did not enter the top ten. In fact, Kobe's entire career is full of ups and downs. The Lakers' management has given him too few helpers. In addition to joining O'Neal in the early stage and Gasol in the mid-term to win the championship, he is in a single-core state most of the time. Compared to Duncan who has been with Parker and Ginobili for a long time, James has Wade, Bosh, Irving, Love, and Davis during his peak period, and Curry has Durant, Thompson, and Green. Kobe's historical status may be among the top ten.

There are also many people who believe that James' personal historical data achievements are due to his long career and maintaining a healthy state. If Curry, Kobe and even Durant are given the same playing time, they will have a chance to play better data performance. But it cannot be denied that James is still a super giant of history, and there was a generation who was also crazy about it.
