This isn't football we're talking about, the ultimate team sport. There aren't 21 other starters. A guy like MJ or Lebron has way more of an impact with fewer players and playing both ways.

It’s more relevant to point to the total number of championships won than the win/loss record in the championship when comparing the best players of all time though.
For instance, it proves the point better to compare 6 rings vs 4 rings than to compare their records in the Finals. And obviously, that’s ONLY when comparing the best players ever (sorry Robert Horry).
I absolutely agree that MJ has the best total resume of any NBA player, but going 6/6 in the Finals isn’t the reason. While it’s impressive, not making the Finals those other years doesn’t make him more impressive imo.
