Of course, fans will still find a way.

“Bill Russell is not top 5,” one fan tweeted.

“LeBron>MJ This shouldn’t be a debate it isn’t even close,” another fan added.

“Everyone is brain washed now, LeBron James is the 9th greatest player ever the REAL top 5 is 1. MJ 2. Kareem 3. Kobe 4. Magic 5. Duncan,” one fan added.

“Any top 5 list that fails to include the late great Kobe Bryant is inherently flawed. Let’s just say I’d replace the player on the list that has less than 5 rings with Kobe,” one fan added.
