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.
It seems short-sighted to diminish a guy's legacy because the people around him weren't as good as the people on other teams. I think rings are probably the least precise way to measure how good someone is at basketball.
Nah what separates the top tier all time greats to the next group is rings because their accolades are pretty much close to each other.
When you put it like that seems like what separates the top tier all time greats and the next group is almost solely based off of who had better teammates
