[edit] Split?
Wouldn't it be better to have separate entries for the Top 10 Best Coaches and the Top 10 Best Teams or at least cut down the stats of the coaches and teams? At its present state, it looks cluttered. --Tubutler 19:56, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- I disagree I was just thinking of nominating this for a GA and I like it. Although they are separate topics I love the layout and look of this article. Quadzilla99 07:37, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- Actually this is more of a list, I believe. So it can't be nominated for GA could perhaps be a featured list eventually though. Quadzilla99 05:48, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] This...
..."The 50 Greatest Players in National Basketball Association History (also referred to as the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time Team) were chosen in 1996 on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the National Basketball Association (NBA) to comprise the fifty best and most influential players of the first half-century of the NBA, with respect not only to performance at the professional level but in consideration of sportsmanship, team leadership, and contributions to the growth of basketball and irrespective of positions played; only players to have played at least a portion of their careers in the NBA were eligible for selection."

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Nba50 logo sm TRANS.gif
Image:Nba50 logo sm TRANS.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:29, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
