1st option rings - what accomplishment is bigger? It's the best GOAT argument

[GimmeThat]

It's only the fastest way to stack up your accomplishments

The crown jewel of Wade's career was his 1st option ring in 2006

The crown jewel of Dirk's career was his 1st option ring in 2011

Kobe wasn't truly respected until he won two 1st option rings in 2009 and 10

No one cares about shaq's piggy back ring in 06' - his first option rings in 00-02' made his career

Guys like Kyrie and Durant seek 1st option rings as their career goal

Hakeem's career was made by a couple 1st option rings

And on.... And on ... And on ..


1st option rings are simply the most respected accomplishment there is - I asked you guys to give me a better accomplishment and only Corporation offered anything at all (6900 playoff points).. everyone else either trolled or said Bill Russell was goat (essentially a concession, at least that MJ is the post-60's goat, which is goat and good enough for me)

So MJ is goat primarily because he has twice as many 1st option rings as anyone else.. it's amazing.. but tbh, it's clear that many of you are unaware of the depth of mj's career - I recommend watching the best 54 minute summary available until the Netflix special comes out next year - watch this and you'll know more about MJ than 99% of basketball fans

[Hey Yo]

Jordan - 6 first option rings


Everyone else - 3 or less

Jordan has 3 rings

Then he has "quit for 2yrs in his prime to rest up mentally and physically, came back, lost in the 2nd round and then won 3 rings after that

Rest up rings don't count.

[Wally450]

Jordan would've lost to the Rockets in 94 and 95 if he played.

It boggles my mind that Dray N Klay gets constantly ragged on yet 3ball does the exact same thing. But on steroids.

Open your eyes.

3ball is getting ragged and tagged in THIS thread.

[And1AllDay]

Open your eyes.

3ball is getting ragged and tagged in THIS thread.

Kobe has FOUR first option rings, hence why he is the 2nd GOAT

led 4 title teams in FGA and assists.

won the majority of his titles as a sidekick
missed the playoffs in his prime multiple times
ended his career with the worst contract in the NBA
destroyed the Lakers in the process - effects are still felt today
retired in the lottery

Nah, but 2 is nothing to be ashamed of. Only a handful of players have 3 titles as their teams best player

Don't forget he also set the record for most missed field goals, lowest field-goal percentage in the last 50 years, lowest FG% for a FMVP, and had zero playoff triple doubles.

CHUCKbe

+1

What's to be ashamed about as 12th best?

That's still REALLY good

[3ball]

He lacks efficiency

On showtime boxing, they call it connect percentage

Your punches have to matter

6900 points and how many rings?

No one?

6900 points and only 3 rings says his skills aren't as effective

Cringe. That you actually believe this goes to show how much of a deluded fan boy you are and how stupid you are in general when it comes to basketball. Good job, bro. You got us all.

[SpaceJam2]

Playoff series wins:

Lebron = 35
Jordan = 30

Perhaps if he won more series he would have more points but he just couldn't do it

[SpaceJam2]

The GOAT Jordan... not even a question tbh...

And reminder to ignore anything this clown types...
