Hakeem won two rings in the weakest era of basketball (90s without Jordan) and would likely be ringless if Jordan never retired.

Plus he won a ring as a 6 seed (which people see as a good thing for some reason) making his championship team one of the worst in history (again, in the weakest era of basketball).

Hakeem is, at worst, top 3 best defensive player of the three point era, at worst (and it’s a stretch) top 5 defensive player of all time, arguably the best tough shot maker in history, and overall strong top 5 player all time.

So no, Giannis isn’t above him. I love Giannis, but no.
