If LeBron failed to win a ring in Cleveland and still left for LA in 2018, would he still be regarded as the 2nd greatest player of all time? (alien.top)

Not to take away his rings in Miami and LA, but it seems to be accepted by most people that the 2016 championship was the most important title that LeBron won (legacy wise), since Cleveland was a much smaller market and it was his hometown team. My question is, if the Cavs lost 4 years in a row to the Warriors, and LeBron left Cleveland again ringless, would there still be a strong argument for him to be 2nd all time?

I already had him as 2nd best. His success in Cleveland and Los Angeles made him #1 for me

he just simply impacts the floor more than any other player ever, his 2nd cleveland stint was legendary
