There is absolutely no chance of fans/analysts ever putting someone ahead of Jordan without winning even one ring. People argued in the past that LeBron was better, but it was more like giving him the benefit of the doubt since he had so much time left. He's probably halfway through being a big difference maker and he has 0 rings. He's got no chance of ever surpassing Jordan. To ever top MJ you're going to have to win more than six rings and win them all as the alpha dog.
