    This is what they say:

    1. Iverson
    2. Artest
    3.Garnett
    4. Kobe
    5. Finley

    Any changes you would make? I actually like the list.....

    Even though I'm not a fan but I probably would put Karl Malone on that list just because he's played 19 seasons, missing a total of 9 games (not counting last season and 98). That number is pretty ridiculous.

    That list isn't numbered. I'd agree with that list for the most part. Malone deserves to be up there instead of Finley. My list:

    1. Allen Iverson
    2. Karl Malone
    3. Ron Artest
    4. Kevin Garnett
    5. Kobe Bryant

    yeah the list isn't in order, they're just listing the top 5 in the league, it's not a ranking.

    KG played with a broken knuckle, didn't make it public, didn't affect his game much if at all. Thats tough.

    Paul Pierce gets stabbed 8-10 times could of easily died in his hospital bed and still manages to play 82 games in that following season. If that's not tough, I don't know what is.

    It's a joke he doesn't even get a mention.

    I agree, wholeheartedly, but I don't think he's as tough as Dale Davis.

    I agree Paul Fu#*ing Pierce is the toughest SOB around. THis guy gets stabbed 10 times , 10 times, it missed his heart cavity by .4 of an inch. Then he comes back and becomes the great player that he is. Definitely the most underrated guy in the league. He goes all out , he is the TRUTH.

    He got stabbed 11 times. That should just put him no. 1 automatically cause he is like the NBA's Tupac.

    Maybe ESPN did not want to mix in off court troubles, but rather only pick the list according to what happened to the players in the league only.

    My list would go like this:

    1.) Pierce
    2.) Iverson
    3.) Artest
    4.) Malone
    5.) Bryant
