Check out some of the guys that got rings with the Bulls. Big deal.

Yeah, he happened to catch more than a few coattails to ride. He was clutch, but hardly a great player.

I think everyone would pretty much agree with this, except maybe Skip Bayless and his lot.

But I never called him great. I said he was an OK defender, OK rebounder and super clutch.

How does he compare to Ewing and Barkley...you know, the selfish scorers with no rings you brought up earlier?

I brought them up in comparision to Melo and I also said thats fine. Nothing wrong with being an all time great regular season guy.

How about Gary Payton? Did winning a ring with the Heat legitimize him as a great player? I just don't think you can categorize players as great, just because they won a championship. Gary Payton was great with or without a ring.
