#2 Oscar Robertson

Mr Triple Double
Mr
Triple Double

With incredulous and ground-breaking numbers throughout his career, 'The Big O' has a sure shot presence on every all-time list. His legendary triple-double season is a feat that many players are still trying to emulate in modern day NBA (only Russell Westbrook was able to do it).

With his scintillating performances, Oscar Robertson kept the spirit of the NBA alive and kicking, at a time when he was also fighting for the rights of the players.

With nine All NBA First Team selections, being the assists leader for six seasons, and three-time All-Star game MVP, Oscar is statistically the greatest Point Guard to have ever played the game.

Such was his prominence and dominance, that he filed and won the lawsuit that turned out to be the birth of Free Agency in the NBA. All said, he has been a major contributor and influencer in the game of NBA, be it through his on-court brilliance, or in the way of his vocal presence against the rules of the association.
