NBA 2K11: The “GOAT” Championship

[vittorio2292]

Dears,

I’m determined to create a collection of the technical and physical characteristics of the GREATEST OF ALL TIME (obviously in my opinion) players: I’ve studied a lot of videos, statistics and opinions on the web and I’ve individuated the best 450 (15 for each NBA team) and I’ve assigned them to the relevant former team (if the slot was still free) or in one of the other teams where they have most played.
With a long work I’ve tried to match all the team exigencies.
My idea is to collect and/or elaborate the characteristics of each player: in this way, who is interested in this, can create his personal championship at home basing the discussion in this topic.
I will update, time by time, near each player name, where the characteristics can be fount on the web.
