Disagree. The 52 Mantle is special because it is a short printed high number card from the first regular Topps set. PSA has graded over 14K Jordans compared to 1243 Mantles. The 86 Fleer Jordan is the 89 UD Griffey of basketball.
The top 3 basketball cards are the 48 Mikan, 57 Russell and 61 Chamberlain. I went with the Wilt because he was the best player of the first ~40 years of the NBA.
