[QUOTE=Marchesk]And Horry has 7. Helps to play with Parker, Duncan and have Pop as a coach when it comes to winning rings.[/QUOTE]
I get Duncan and Pop, but why mention Parker? Manu was substantially better, and much harder to replace than Parker IMO.

I'm not saying who's better or trying to denigrate Manu. My point was that Mullin didn't have the same kind of team to play for when the ring argument is brought up.
I don't think it's fair to say that Manu is better than Mullin because he has 4 rings.

He's better on the court.
Manu was a beast season. Spurs would of had 6 rings if Manu wasn't playing for Miami last season.
Manu. Mullin was a great player, particularly a great shooter, but Manu's game far away affects the outcome of a game more than Mullin's did.
gino is lowkey one of the greatest all-around players in history.
so ya, excuse me while i take manu.
Mullin was the best SF of the 80s. We have never seen a better all round white SF, who could even compare?
You know the crafty, extremely intelligent, well-rounded, highly skilled offensive player and clutch cold blooded killer the media keeps trying to paint James Harden as? Manu actually [I]was[/I] that player...the only difference is that Manu doesn't play on a team that basically lets him do whatever the **** he wants to on offense and play zero defense to pad his stats. If he did he'd EASILY be a 25/5/5 player at his peak.
Oh yeah, and Manu plays defense.
I'll take him over Mullin as well.

Yep, Mullin was the white Larry Bird in the 80s...
Mullin. Replace Manu with Mullin and the Spurs still have four rings with Run TMC still have early playoff exits.

26/5/5 in his prime 5 seasons. Made All NBA 1st team in 1992 when Malone Barkley and Pippen were at their best. Was an Original Dream Member. You're either underrating Mullin or overrating Manu.

Mullin had no business making 1st team All NBA over Pippen in 92. Scottie was better in every way (significantly in most ways) possible except Mullin scored more points. Warriors were first in pace with a 103.4 to the Bulls 94.4 (22nd) which obviously made the buckets come easier on the Warriors at that. I like Mullin and think he's really underrated, but he was never 1st team all nba worthy.
