Rings are overrated, especially when you weren't the player leading your team to them. Robert Horry has a lot of them. Luc Longley and has a few. Karl Malone, John Stockton, Pat Ewing, and Charles Barkley have none. Worthy was a very good player but take Magic Johnson away from him and I don't think his career looks nearly like it does.

From the James Worthy Bio
James Worthy- One of the Top 50 NBA players of ALL Time, 7 time All star, 3 time NBA Champion, MVP of the 1982 NCAA Championship Tournament, #1 pick of the 1982 NBA draft...

Nobody said that Worthy wasn't a really good player. But umm, Scottie Pippen is on the top 50 list too and nobody is putting him on any all-time teams. If you know basketball, you know that, while I wouldn't say Jordan made Pippen, Jordan contributed greatly to Pippen's success. Without Jordan, Pippen is never a six-time champion. Without Magic, Worthy is never a 3-time champion. If you notice, in his entire career, Worthy never made all-league first or second team. The best he did was be named third team twice. He was a subpar rebounder for a guy 6-9. His career high was 6.4 and his career average was 5.1 His career scoring average was 17.6 He was a steady player and a good player. But nowhere close to one of the all-time greats. Where he made his name was in the playoffs. They called him "Big Game James" because he was a money player. But overall career, there were a lot of guys that rank higher than him. I would not have voted Worthy into the hall of fame.
