No consensus among what I've seen regarding the order. Top 5 is also not set in stone. Good to see

Wilt, Russell, Magic, and KAJ all have cases over MJ. I don't have a problem with those that rank MJ as the greatest, but he certainly was not a clear-cut GOAT.

Of course, Wilt's TEAMs, which were generally pathetic, and that played even worse in the post-season were nine points away from reducing Russell's ring count from an 11-2 edge, down to a 7-6 margin. A Chamberlain with six rings would be a unanimous GOAT. Oh, and in their 10 seasons in the league together, Chamberlain held a 7-2 margin in First-Team All-NBA's.
As for KAJ, he didn't come close to dominating the NBA as much as Chamberlain did, and he played four years IN the Wilt-era. Furthermore, in their four seasons in the league together, Wilt and KAJ each won one ring, but Wilt held a 3-1 Finals edge. So, while they were in the league together, Chamberlain was clearly a greater "winner." On top of that, a peak/prime KAJ won exactly ONE ring, in a decade the last half of which, was arguably the weakest, in terms of title winners, in NBA history. It wasn't until he was paired up with the all-time GOAT winner (in terms of W-L%), Magic Johnson, that he would win five more rings. Interesting too, that when the two played together in those ten years, without Magic, KAJ's winning percentage was .604 (61-40), while Magic's winning percentage, without KAJ, was .750 ( 24-8, or even higher than his career winning percentage of .743.)
