# of Rings : Players
11: Bill Russell
10: Sam Jones
8: Tom Heinsohn, K. C. Jones, Tom "Satch" Sanders, John Havlicek
7: Jim Loscutoff, Frank Ramsey, Robert Horry
6: Bob Cousy, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen
5:George Mikan, Jim Pollard, Slater Martin, Larry Siegfried, Don Nelson, Magic Johnson, Michael Cooper, Dennis Rodman, Ron Harper, Steve Kerr, Derek Fisher, Kobe Bryant | Loaded with Celtics.
Seeing Ron Harper and Robert Horry with that many and neither were fantastic players. |
| Sandy D | 06-04-2014 10:36 PM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Think about it.
Only 25 total players have 5 rings.
A deeper look shows Ron Harper won 5 straight rings with 2 different teams.
John Salley won only 4 rings but with 3 different teams.
I would like to see Duncans name on this list but also would like to see people shut up about Lebron as he is right behind MJ as the best ever in my opinion. Yes he needs a few more solid years which I hope he is healthy enough to have those and you will hopefully see him a few years down the road being mentioned as one of the 2 best players ever.
Celtics actually should have won 3 more championships in the 80's and got homered badly in 2 series vs the Lakers. |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Robert Horry was clutch 3 if I recall correctly |

| Sandy D | 06-06-2014 12:01 AM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Great game.
Parker seems healthy.
Looked like Miami was going to run away with it until James had the cramps and then Spurs cleaned their clock on a 31-9 run. |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) It was a great game with the Spurs coming back.
Only James seem phased by the "heat"...he was doing well until that point.
Let's see how the Heat rebound |
| Sandy D | 06-06-2014 02:09 PM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) When they go to Miami they will have it 15 degrees inside. |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Miami took game 2 - close one |
| vogeltron | 06-09-2014 02:46 AM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Ginobili, is like Tony Romo at the end of games. I have no clue why they even play him. If Rashard Lewis turns back the clock and plays like he did today. That may swing this entire series in the heats favor. |
| Sandy D | 06-09-2014 02:58 PM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Funny how all the Lebron haters used his cramps against him and he comes right back to shut them up. |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Was a good rebound game - predictions on game 3? |

I predict the Spurs will shoot 75% the first half and win by 20.
:lol: |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) I think Heat will rebound with a win |
| glacier922 | 06-11-2014 06:25 PM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) I am totally for the spurs. They were the better team last year, and the better team this year. I was never into big name agents such as lbj, bosh or Kobe. I think when u watch 10 players play in complete synchronization, like the spurs, it was a thing of beauty. Go spurs! |
| Sandy D | 06-11-2014 09:58 PM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) They sure do play the way it is suppose to be done. Team work.
They are like a machine when they are on like the first half.
Heat has the athletic ability to overcome this type of play but we will see.
Would like to see Tim go out with another one but a fan of Lebrons also puts me on either side. |
| vogeltron | 06-12-2014 03:44 AM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) This Series is going to test how good Lebron really is. Because there is no question the Spurs have the deeper team. Bosh is solid, Wade is broken down and is average at best. The rest of the heat is suspect.
If the Heat win this Series is because Lebron James carries them and even with this so/so team put around him now was better than anything he had on the Cavs. The Cavs owner should be ashamed of the Garbage he gave the best player since MJ to work with. Old man O'Neal and Antwan Jamison. Come on.
I have no stake in the outcome. Spurs have the most solid franchise in the NBA for like 15 years now. Unreal. But this is a test for Lebron. Is he up there with MJ at the head of the class for greatest players of the Modern Era since they added the 3-point line. |
| Sandy D | 06-12-2014 03:07 PM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Glad to see someone finally agrees with me just how good he really is.
He can carry them but he cannot do it all. Wade seems to be done to me. His legs just dont have it anymore.
Spurs are a smart team all around and play the game the way it is suppose to be played. Fun to watch.
I think Ginobli is the factor here, he cannot have bad games anymore. |
| glacier922 | 06-12-2014 11:26 PM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Wow! What a game! Go spurs! |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Very technical game - Spurs had everyone producing...up 3-1 deservedly so |
| GreenBean | 06-13-2014 04:26 AM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) TEAM work.
:thumb: |
| Gamefreak | 06-13-2014 11:45 AM | Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) anyone else think road to finals for the heat was too easy. they had it easy that now they can't even see to compete which is sad really but man the spurs and playing like a well oiled machine. | | All times are GMT -5.
