About this episode

In Episode 1 of Nick Wright's Top 50 NBA Players from the last 50 years, Nick begins the countdown! Nick dives right in ranking New York Knicks small forward Bernard King as his 50th greatest NBA player of the last 50 years and continues with another Knicks legend — Carmelo Anthony. Nick also defines the rules of the list and explains who missed the cut — including Nikola Jokić, Damian Lillard, Tracy McGrady, Paul Pierce and others — and who is too old to make his Top 50.
