I wanna be with Mike


A player's ultimate worth in their career is judged by myriad factors, but NBA titles won is one of the most crucial. Many of the all-time greats like Elgin Baylor, Charles Barkley, and George Gervin have had their legacies marred, fairly or unfairly, by their lack of championships. On the other hand, many players have had their legacies boosted by being a secondary (or tertiary) player on one or more title teams.

Some of those players were stars in their own right, but many were simply minnows caught up in His Airness’ wake.
