Championship frequency of #1 options

[3ball]

I used to think that playoffs and Finals stats/performance was the only case for GOAT - obviously that's MJ all day - but now I realize there's another great criteria - championship frequency of #1 options.

MJ appears to lead in this category too: 6/15 = 40% championship frequency - this is also GOAT, right?

[Cleverness]

2/5 also = 40%

[Genaro]

Bill Russell?

[Hit_Em]

2/5 also = 40%

he would be 2 out of 11 by this new criteria

So if someone put up identical stats to Jordan, and only played 6 years, while winning all 6, he'd be better?

Sounds stupid.

I'm pretty sure if someone did that, he would get labeled GOAT.

out of years kobe started and was healthy

1999
2000 = title
2001 = title
2002 = title
2003 ( torn shoulder/knee in playoffs - colorado surgery )
2004 ( rehabbing all year with braces/shoulder wrap/half sleeve )
2005 ( missing allot of the season )
2006
2007
2008
2009 = title
2010 = title
2011 ( knee injury requiring surgery )
2012
2013 ( torn achilles before playoffs )
2014 ( achilles recover/broken leg )
2015 ( torn shoulder )


kobe is basically 5 out of 10... 50%

With this logic, Jordan is 6/11

Sophomore season injured
1995 Season, rusty
Wizard years too old

GOAT gonna GOAT

So by this logic, Kobe is the second best player in history.

Okay.
