Not all of the former players were retired legends. Marcin Gortat showed up, as did Matt Barnes, Keith Bogans, Trevor Ariza, and Courtney Lee. Grant Hill
Brandon LaChance and I are continuing our top 200 lists and will eventually be releasing the series of podcasts that accompany them, but for the time being, here are the next players in the list. 139 Rod Strickland Strickland is a guy who could've gone a lot higher on this list based on talent alone.

Brett Roberts and I have been working on other projects, which has pushed our lists of the top 200 players to ever play in the NBA to the side for a short time.
