  Bill Russell played in the 60's against a bunch of white guys

  So I guess they should just throw out all of the records from the 60's and 70's on back? And Is that why the NBA's Finals MVP is now called the Bill Russell award?

  I was just merely pointing out that Bill Russell was playing against inferior talent.

  If you are the greatest of all time, then all the talent you play against is inferior. Thats why you are the greatest.

  While there were more white guys in the league during Russel's time, there were also fewer teams, which means the talent was not watered down, like it is today. Players like Nate Thurmond, Walt Bellamy,Wilt Chamberlain and Willis Reed provided some Hall of Fame competition for Russell and his black teammates:Satch Sanders, Sam Jones, and KC. Jones.

  If rings is the standard then no--because 7 wouldn't make him the GOAT. The ring argument is stupid. Not saying Kobe can't be considered the GOAT when he's done playing but the ring thing is just dumb.

  7 MVP's? He got one, and as long as Lebron and Wade are in this league, that's all he's going to get.

  Kobe seems to be ble to will his team to big victories. LeBron, well, he knows how to dance.
