No player wins multiple titles on his own. James needed Wade/Bosh and now Kyrie/Love, both guys on those teams are multiple time All-Stars, so lets get real. Pretty sure MJ would have the same 6 titles or more if he went running to play with Magic or Ewing or Barkley. James has a decent case for no.2 or no.3 overall, but zero for GOAT right now. Call me when he has 6 or more ideally, 7 titles. "GOAT" should not have a losing record in the NBA Finals either. |
Number of titles means little when circumstances can get in the way of that. I would say Wilt Chamberlin and Kareem Abdul Jabbar have powerful arguments for #1 despite having fewer and Bill Russell has no argument for #1 despite having 11 titles. And Lebron James's individual prowess and the way he can elevate his team are undeniable. Take your blinders off.
