Then if he get six in maintaining this level of excellence then he's 1/2 with Jordan. But for now he's only 1/3 of the way there, so please hold back the slurpage for another couple championships at least. This is just my general opinion obviously, but I have heard a bunch of people in the know say he needs those six/seven rings before you can really say he's the greatest ever regardless of individual feats.

I think the 15-20 is pure garbage as mentioned in this thread and the 4 rings to get into top 10 is silly, but there is no way that he is the top guy ever right now and I don't expect that many legit media will be saying that he is. May be a few guys looking to get publicity for it, but since the biggest d-bag for that Skip Bayless was down on him all series tough to imagine even he will do it for ratings.
