#Notable findings:

Appearing in all 3 charts is Kareem, Jordan, Lebron, annnndd DAVID FUCKING ROBINSON. The Admiral is hella underrated. Petition to make him part of the conversation for NBA's Mt. Rushmore.

Appearing in at least 2 are Wilt, KD, Harden, and Chris Paul. Kinda surprising for this list to have people that are mostly clowned for not having a ring.

Notable absences are Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neal, and Kobe Bryant who are often considered top 10 players.

That's a good part of the day wasted. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
