Not sure MJ is the best, but I'll take him and many others over LeBron

The ones that come to mind that I'd take ahead of LeBron, in no particular order, would include:

Larry Bird, Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Oscar Robertson, Jerry West and among current players, probably Kevin Durant.

Wilt is arguably the best athlete to ever play the game and the rest are not only great players, but are winners who made their teams better (though that perhaps remains to be proven with Durant).
