I am probably alone in this opinion, but for me championships have nothing to do with the greatness of a player. It is a TEAM accomplishment. One guy can't win a championship alone. If the other 4 guys didn't play defense and make shots when they needed to, there is no championship.

I'm not gunna disagree with you, in fact for once I think we actually agree on something (wow, took long enough lol).

However, a lot of the times I think it comes down to star power. Scottie Pippen, larger than life persona, very bousterous, invaded mainstream culture (even my mother who hates sports knows who Pippen and Rodman are). Can we say the same about Bernard King?

You can't tell me that they're star power/persona doesn't come in to play when they are making their decisions, sometimes it helps just to have a name everyone knows.
