Hakeem is a worse player on the court overall but would have one more title but significantly less achievements elsewhere and it around 9-11. Lebron should be firmly in 5-8

Lebron be placed firmly at 5 with 1 ring and 1 MVP makes no sense.

Kobe has 5 rings, 4x All Star MVP, 2x FMVP, 18x All Star, 11x All Star 1st Team, 12x All Defensive, 9x All Defensive 1st Team (most in NBA history), 2x scoring champion, 4th most points in history, 2nd most assists as a guard, and this sub for whatever reason thinks that resume isn't enough to be higher than 7 or 8, even though his resume is stronger than half the players in the top 10.

Because Kobe for all his resume has clear flaws as a player.

Lebron probably would still be top 5-10 based on his longevity.

Also depends on which ring, if it’s his 2016 then it’s probably the greatest ring ever. Even more than Dirk’s.

Magic literally played no defense and has 0x any All Defense Team nominations but he's consistently ranked top 5.
