Dwayne Wade said if Jordan is on the 18th hole career wise (golf analogy), then Lebron is only on the 4th hole and has a long way to go to catch / surpass him...

So that got me to thinking... While I don't know ? about golf, I thought it'd be fun to do this:

Rank random players with 2 ratings out of 100: their OVERALL CAREER acheivements / Legend status, and their ABSOLUTE PEAK of dominance as a player on the basketball court...

Put it in the format of: 100 / 100... The first number being career as a whole, and the 2nd number being their dominance in their prime.

Let's use this standard: Jordan is 100 / 100 ..... Anyone else you rank, you rank based off comparing them to Jordan.... And in fairness to a ? like Shaq... If you feel his ABSOLUTE PRIME / BEST AS A BASKETBALL PLAYER was a little better than even jordan, put his prime is like 103, or 105... or whatever little extra credit you want to give them, compared to Jordans absolute peak as a basketball player. (or even if you want to say a ? like Russell or Kareem had a little better career than Jordan, give them extra credit at 103, 105... Whatever you feel their career tops Jordan at). But the rule is, Jordan is the standard at 100 / 100.

This is the default list of players... You can add your own if you want (just remember when ranking, career comes first, then overall peak as a basketball player):

Kobe Bryant
Lebron James
Larry Bird
Tim Duncan
Magic Johnson
Wilt Chamberlin
Karl Malone
Kevin Durant
Shaquile Oneal
Kareem Abdul Jabbar
Bill Russell
Hakeem Olojuwan
Oscar Robertson
Jerry West
Charles Barkley

    Bill russell should be 100+ / x
    The finals mvp trophy is named after him and he has the most rings

    Jerry west should be 100+ / x
    He's the ? logo of the league. Bigger accomplishment than anyone else

    Lebron should be around a 70 Durant a lil closer to 40
