In the NBA, the all-round can be divided into many kinds, some players are good at offense and organization, some players are good at offense and defense, this is an all-round performance, but the real all-round player should be an offensive, passing, and defensive player who is all-encompassing, although Wei Shao is the historical triple-double king, but his defensive ability is still far from the top backcourt in the same position, it is worth mentioning that the American media previously selected the 8 most comprehensive players in NBA history, let's take a look at who is on the list.
Eighth Garnett
Garnett is the previous playmaker power forward, he began to hold the ball through the half court in the 00s, and Garnett's strongest is his defense, he can defend 5 positions and has been selected as the best defender 9 times, the most selected player among the power forwards. Garnett's rebounds, steals and blocks are also very good, and his scoring ability is not top-notch, but it is also an All-Star level, averaging 17.8 points, 10 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.4 blocks per game in his career, and his career total points, rebounds, blocks and steals are all in the top 20 in history.
Seventh Pippen

Although Pippen's scoring ability is not the top in the same position, he also averaged 20+ per game at his peak, which is very good. Pippen averaged 16.1 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 2 steals and 0.8 blocks per game in his career.
Sixth Kopeck
Although Kobe's organizational ability has been criticized by fans, he doesn't pass the ball because he can't pass, but because he doesn't want to pass, Kobe's ability to handle the ball is underestimated, and his average of 6.3 assists per game in his peak season also shows his ability. Kobe Bryant's defense is the top existence in the same position, 9 times selected for the first defense, on the offensive end, Kobe Bryant has averaged 35 points per game in a single season, he is the closest player to Jordan in history, which also shows his ability, career average can score 25 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.4 steals per game.
Fifth Kidd

Kidd is the second-best in career total assists and steals in history, averaging 12.6 points, 6.3 rebounds, 8.7 assists and 1.9 steals per game in his career. He has led the team to the finals twice, which is very good.
Fourth Oscar Robertson
Big O is one of the most versatile players in history, he is the all-time triple-double king before Wei Shao, and his triple-double gold content can be said to be extremely high, because there is no three-point line in his era, and the players are all piling up on the inside, which also increases the difficulty of winning triple-doubles and sending assists, as a result, Big O has achieved an average triple-double per game this season, and also won the MVP in the era of Chamberlain and Russell. Big O averaged 25.7 points, 7.5 rebounds and 9.5 assists per game in his career, and Big O won the league's assist king in his rookie season, and no one has won the assist king since him.
Third Jordan
Jordan's all-around has always been underrated, and if he wanted to, he could have averaged a triple-double like Willis, who played 11 point guard games and ended up with 10 assists in double figures, 10 triple-doubles to be exact. Jordan's offensive and defensive prowess naturally goes without saying, and the 10-time scoring champion and 1 best defensive player speak for themselves. Jordan can become the first person in history because he is versatile enough, Jordan can average 30.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 2.3 steals and 0.8 blocks per game in his career.
Second Magic Johnson
Magic is the best playmaker in history, he is a true all-around fighter, Magic is 2.06 meters tall, which also gives him an absolute advantage, he can play from the No. 1 position to the No. 5 position, and can also defend five positions, his scoring ability has been underrated, and he has averaged 26 points per game in a single season in the playoffs, and Magic's all-round nature has made him the No. 1 point guard in history. The Magic is averaging 19.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, 11.2 assists and 1.9 steals per game in his career.
First James
James is the same as Magic, they are all able to play from 1 to 5, James is most questioned by black fans is his defensive ability, in fact, James was very strong in defense when he was young, he had the opportunity to win the best defensive player, and he was selected as the best defense 5 times, and now the defensive end is not active because of the reasonable use of physical fitness as he ages, James has averaged 27.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 1.5 steals per game in his career, and if Doncic can improve his defense to the top in the future, it is estimated that he will also be able to enter this list.
