The 5 best NBA singles challenger in every decade, who is overrated or underrated

Recently, the one-on-one challenge between Michael Beasley and Stephenson has caused a lot of controversy among fans and media. Everyone is curious about LeBron James' ability to fight alone, because Michael Beasley said that he could easily defeat LeBron James when he fought alone.

In fact, there are many stars with excellent single-on-one skills in NBA history. For this reason, Eddie Bitar, the author of the US media "Fadeaway World", recently posted the most capable players in each era of the NBA. Let's see which stars are the strongest single-on-one players in the NBA every decade.

The strongest single-handed king in the 1950s

1. George McCann

2. Bob Cusi

3. Dolf Shays

4. Bill Sharman

5. Harry Gerardine

The NBA in the 1950s is a bit old, but we can see that Lakers legend George McCann is on the list. In the NBA for seven years, he was elected as the scoring champion three times. There is almost no controversy among the NBA players in the old era, and these five are one of the best stars in the old era.

The strongest single-handed king in the 1960s

1. Chamberlain

2. Jerry West

3. Oscar Robertson

4. Elgin Baylor

5. Halgreer

Except Halgreer, the other four people should be very familiar with. Halgreer has been averaging at least 20 points per game for seven consecutive seasons. Chamberlain ranked first, without any controversy. After all, the height and body size advantage are there, and Chamberlain once averaged 50 points per game and scored 100 points in a single game. With this ability to fight one-on-one, he is definitely one of the top five in history. Jerry West and Elgin Baylor are both great scorers, both playing in the Lakers. As for Oscar Robertson, he is a great triple-double king, a one-on-one king with averaging 30+ triple-double strength.

The strongest single-handed king in the 1970s

1. Jabbar

2. George Gervin

3. Julius Irving

4. Pitt Malawich

5. Erwin Hayes

The most familiar thing here is that Jabbar, with a hook-in-arms, fought invincible hands throughout the league. Although he only won the scoring champion twice, he is the title of the sixth MVP, but it is very valuable. Spurs legend George Gervin, who is about the same size as Kevin Durant, is both players of similar size. Moreover, George Gervin was also elected the scoring leader in four career times.

The 1980s

1. Michael Jordan

2. Larry Bird

3. Dominic Wilkins

4. Arix Inglish

5. Adrian Dantley

Although Michael Jordan only played five seasons in the 1980s, he had conquered many superstars of his generation such as Larry Bird, even Magic Johnson was no exception. From 1985 to 1989, he averaged 32.6 points per game. Larry Bird is a famous trash talker, mainly because he is too capable. It's a pity that Magic Johnson failed to be selected, after all, he can play five positions.

The 1990s

1. Michael Jordan

2. Olajuwon

3. Karl Malone

4. Clyde Drexler

5. David Robinson

Michael Jordan completely entered the peak of his personal career in the 1990s and helped the Chicago Bulls achieve two three-game winning streak. There were many outstanding superstars at that time, but Michael Jordan had the best abilities. The second is Olajuwon, whose dreamy footsteps are unmatched, and he also led the Rockets to win two consecutive championships. There is also Karl Malone, his iron elbow, who is also an invincible existence.

21900s

1. Kobe

2. Allen Iverson

3. Shaquille O'Neal

4. McGrady

5. Dirk Nowitzki

21900s, in terms of one-on-one ability, the four major points guards must have the strength to be on the list. But only Kobe, Allen Iverson and McGrady were selected here, and it was incredible that Vince Carter was not seen. Kobe's single-handed ability can be said to be the strongest one in Michael Jordan since then. O'Neal should not be underestimated because with his ability, he has helped the Lakers build a three-game championship dynasty.

210s

1. Kevin Durant

2. James Harden

3. Cameron Anthony

4. Kyrie Irving

5. LeBron James

Kevin Durant, Cameron Anthony, James Harden, Kyrie Irving and LeBron James were selected, and there was almost no big problem. After all, these five were the most popular NBA stars in the 1910s.

The five strongest singles in the 1920s

1. Luca Doncic

2. Antetokounmpo

3. Embiid

4. Jokic

5. Jason Tatum

In fact, Embiid is overrated, and his current singles ability is still not as good as Kyrie Irving, LeBron James or Kevin Durant. Luka Doncic can play in multiple positions, and once averaged 30 points per game is the best proof. Although Antetokounmpo does not have the ability to shoot top three-pointers, he is definitely the top five in one-on-one match. Jokic has no big problem here. In fact, Anthony Davis replaces Embiid, may be a good choice. Jason Tatum's one-on-one ability is not as good as his teammate Jaylen Brown.
