“一如既往，今早醒来后，我感谢上帝给我带来的一切恩典。我的生活即将在几个小时内发生改变，我现在的情绪很激动！”
I woke up today thanking God for everything, per usual. My life is about to change in a few hours and I am full of emotion!
1. 詹皇（2003）
1. LeBron James(2003)
每个人都把勒布朗-詹姆斯和科比-布莱恩特与迈克尔乔丹相比。事实上，乔丹在芝加哥只打了1100场比赛，然后他就离开了，并且球队也随之堕落。科比打了20年，但他最后三个赛季跌入低谷。勒布朗·詹姆斯现在在1240比赛中，没有任何迹象表明他状态下滑。在这方面，勒布朗可能或可能不是比迈克尔更好的球员，但他是一个更好的人。
Everyone compares LeBron James and Kobe Bryant to Michael Jordan.Indeed,Jordan played only 1,100 games in Chicago then he left and there was clear erosion.Kobe played 20 years but his last 3 fell off the cliff. LeBron James is now at 1,240 games and there is no sign at all of erosion.In this respect LeBron may or may not be a better player than Michael,but he's a better man.
2. 贾巴尔（1969）
2. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar(1969)
卡里姆·阿布杜尔-贾巴尔是前五名中的另一名新秀球员（对于其他人，乔丹第三。比尔·拉塞尔第二，部分原因是 Ice Capades 和必定成功的前景，威尔特·张伯伦被费城勇士通过《地域选秀规条》选中。）他的六个常规赛MVP和20年的NBA生涯，是确定贾巴尔比詹姆斯地位要高的硬数据。
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is the other player in the top five who was drafted No. 1. (Of the others, Jordan went No. 3, Bill Russell No. 2 in part because of the Ice Capades and surefire top prospect Wilt Chamberlain was drafted by the Philadelphia Warriors using territorial rights.) There's certainly a case to be made for Abdul-Jabbar over James, given his six MVPs and 20-year NBA career.
3. 邓肯（1997）
3. Tim Duncan(1997)
19年的职业生涯全部贡献给了圣安东尼奥马刺队，邓肯当然可以被称为新秀状元。他给球队的选择带来了最大的价值。任何一支手握状元签的球队都很愿意选邓肯一起赢得的五个总冠军。
Given he spent his entire 19-year career with the San Antonio Spurs, Duncan certainly could be called the No. 1 pick who provided the most value to the team that drafted him. And whichever team hands the No. 1 pick would love to match the five championships the Spurs won with Duncan.
4. 奥尼尔（1992）
4. Shaquille O'Neal(1992)
如果你在寻找NBA历史上最伟大的成对交易，那就看1992年的选秀吧，这是两个名人堂的中锋：奥尼尔和第二的阿朗佐莫宁。（一个肾的情况下拿到冠军，在所有的比赛中都排在前100名。）
If you're looking for the greatest top pair of picks in NBA history, look no further than the 1992 draft, which yielded two Hall of Fame centers: O'Neal and No. 2 pick Alonzo Mourning (0.5 championships added, which ranks in the top 100 all time).
5. 约翰逊（1979）
5. Magic Johnson(1979)
从峰值来看，约翰逊将排在詹姆斯和他的湖人队友阿布杜尔-贾巴尔之后。他在32岁时因艾滋病退休，阻止了约翰逊在后的比赛中获得额外总冠军的机会。
In terms of peak value, Johnson would rank third on this list behind James and his Lakers teammate Abdul-Jabbar. His early retirement at age 32 due to HIV prevented Johnson from racking up additional post-prime championships added.
