i'll be the first to admit that i don't know much about basketball or the celtics.  Ted Williams is perhaps the greatest hitter ever. Bobby Orr is arguably the best ever in his sport. Russell is one of the top players in the NBA history but he's not the best. I thought based on how Williams and Orr rank respectively in their sport that they should be in the top 2. I didn't want to put Russell 3rd because this is a pats board and there are a lot of homers here who would want Brady there. And i always thought Bird was better than Russell, at least according to some lists.

"He’s the greatest quarterback to ever play the game. He goes from being a rookie that nobody is expecting anything from, to taking over with people saying he can’t do it, to winning three Super Bowls....It should already be obvious he’s the greatest quarterback to ever have played. "
