I don't think he is the goat, but rings isn't the reason. Those with multiple rings had significant help for the most part. Jordan had pippen, Kobe had Shaq, etc. 2 all time greats with top 50ish all-time players with them.

At the end of the day you simply cannot be the GOAT with 4 rings.

As a counter argument, are rings the true measurement of greatness? Is Bill Russell the GOAT? Because I could for sure

That Mavs team isn’t beating ANY of Bill Russell’s 11 title teams.

6 rings isn’t enough either to be the GOAT - need at least 10

Bill Russell is the only one who can claim that. 11 rings.

The most likeable thing about him is he is a great dad. Besides that I got nada.

Yep. Number of rings is how I know Robert Horry was better than Jordan.

Horry also better than Kareem, Magic, Duncan, Shaq, Curry, and Bird.
