I think the top 3 are probably...

Wilt
Bill Russell
Michael

Not sure what the order would be.

Wilt led the league in rebounding and scoring in his first four seasons.
Averaged 50 pts a game in one season.
Averaged over 30 pts a game for his career.
If he had been fortunate enough to had played for the Celtics (like Russell), who knows how many titles he would have.
4x league MVP.

Bill Russell won 11 titles.
5x league MVP.
Averaged 24 rebounds a game for his playoff career (165 games).

Michael won 6 titles without ever losing in the finals.
Led the league in scoring for a streak of 10 out 11 seasons.
5x league MVP.
6x finals MVP.

LeBron might be #4 -- based in large part on his incredible durability and excellence.

There is no greatest ever in any of the major sports. Training, technology, rules, diets, and everything in between has changed so it's hard to say who would be the greatest because the games aren't the same. It's more like the greatest of their era or generation.

Yeah, you can only really judge players on how they did in their given era.

Whoever started this therad has got to be the biggest mowron in the history of history. What a fukkin cowbell. Maybe he got mad when the milk cow bit a hole in his pouch.

Douche canoe-a-saurus = fvcknut sucks even more than it normally does.
