Ring is irrelevant at this point as he would only be a minor player on any championship at this point.
2 MVP means clear HOF. As far as all-time PGs go, being irrelevant on defense hurts a lot in my eyes. There are a lot of guys who have been able to do it all.
Yes, but had Bob MacAdoo not join the 80s Lakers, he'd also be on that list which is why it's better to ride the pine, behind Byron Scott and Mitch Kupchak, than going ringless in the end.
On the other hand, had Pete Maravich spent one more year in Boston, since I think he was still a better bench player (even in his twilight) than Chris Ford was, he too would have ended his career with a ring.
