Currently in the NBA, there are 30 teams. One of them are the Boston Celtics. The Celtics have won 17 championships. This is the most ever team had, coming second is the Los Angeles Lakers with 16 championships. The Lakers and Celtics are big rivals because, almost half the 67 NBA championship games they would play each other. The leading players in 1980 championship were, Larry Bird, and Magic Earvin Johnson. They both made the Hall Of Fame, which only legends do. In 1956 Bill Russell was drafted.Bill Russell won 13 championships and won 7 in a row. Bill won their first 13 championships in 1957, 1959,1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1968, 1969, 1974, and 1976. Bill played the biggest position which is Center, he would dominate the key. The other 4 championships were in 1981, 1984, 1986, and 2008. I was alive during the 2008 championship game. I was watched all 6 games. The 6th game the series was 3-2 and the celtics needed one more game to win the whole championships. They were playing the Lakers on June, 17th, 2008 and won.

Top 5 NBA Players
In the NBA there are many arguments for who deserves to be in the top 5 category. In my opinion the 5th best player is Russell Westbrook. Russell Westbrook is a point guard, that currently plays on the Oklahoma City Thunder. The reason I chose him as my fifth payer, is because he is a very quick, and explosive player. He led the NBA in most triple doubles. He almost won the MVP award, which is Most Valuable Player. Anthony Davis comes in as my 4th best player. He is only 22 years old, and puts up monster numbers. He is the 1st pick overall in Yahoo Fantasy Sports. He led the league in blocks, and was 4th in scoring. Now for my 3rd best player I would say James Harden. Harden is a great shooter and a great attacker to the basket. He is almost impossible to guard 1 on 1. He was the second player to lead the NBA in scoring.
Now here is where the big argument comes. Between these 2 players, LeBron James, and Stephen Curry. They both led their teams, to the finals and the Warriors won. Stephen Curry plays for the warriors and beat the Cavs. Stephen curry is the best 3 point shooter in NBA history. Lebron is the best attacker in history. In my opinion lebrun is the best player in the league. The reason I choose lebrun is because, he is unstoppable and made it to the finals without he's amazing players. Hebron is a very reliable and consistent player. So Stephen curry comes as second in my opinion.

Kareem Abdul Jabbar
What about Kareem Abdul Jabbar is so special? In 1969 there was a great amazing player who was playing on UCLA. He was 7'2'', and played the center position. His name was Kareem Abdul Jabbar. The Milwaukee Bucks had the first pick of the 1969, NBA draft. They selected Kareem, and he was very excited to be the first pick.
Then comes his first regular season NBA game. He's a little bit nervous, but that won't stop him from playing good. He plays great, then the coach really sees his potential, and keeps on putting him in. In 1971-72 and 1974-76 he won Most Valuable Player award for 4 years. So about 3 years after his last award he won another one in 1980. About 6 years later he gets traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers really loved him and kept him for a while. Kareem invented a great basketball move called the "Hook Shot." He mastered that shot, and thats what he was meant for. Kareem scored most of his points from the hook shot. Then one of his teammates Magic Johnson started to practice the hook and they both mastered the move. In 1989 he retired from the NBA and won an incredible award for "One of the greatest top 50 NBA players." He retired at age 42, and is now 68 years old. He recently had a signing at the Grove in Los angeles CA. And he has had a great career.
