Shaq wouldn't have 4 rings without Kobe. There are a number of great players without rings, but most got a shot at it (some people just get bad matchups like whomever played the Bulls in the 90s).
No one is calling Kerr/Horry HoF'ers because of their rings, there has to be some context to it.
Yep, that's why a lot people like Russell / Kareem / etc more than Wilt.

I kinda feel bad for the teams that ran into the Jordan-Bulls buzzsaw lol. Then Malone joined the Lakers and they came up short. I was never a Malone fan though, so **** him. And yeah Shaw probably wouldn't have as many rings without Kobe, but that's kinda why I don't like the rings argument. People wanna hold it against Lebron for not having rings when he didn't have the benefit of a Shaq. I don't think it's fair to argue rings when some teams are way better than others.
