It's crazy to think that a lot of these players are ringless because of MJ
Mj changed nba history lol
Same way mj was ringless in the 80s cause of bird🤣
@@barrichardson5002 I’d say isiah Thomas and the pistons but Mike got dat revenge😈
@@kslimeeball mj ain’t win a playoff series against bird lol
@@barrichardson5002 you mean the pistons? Dumb comment
Karl Malone was too busy chasing kids rather than rings
So glad Kobe didn't help him get no rings either 🤷♂️
Payton still got his ring in 06
HAHAHA Karl Malone is a pedophile
I don’t think he’s a Biden supporter
That is very funny
Lol
T mac got unlucky with his teams which prevented him from a ring :(
He wanted to go on those teams
His team was better without him in 2009
He always got eliminated in the first round. Always.
@@hectorlopez1069 Barring 2009 in Houston when they made past the first round against the Trailblazers (Yeah, he was shut down due to injury, but still played). And 2013 when the Spurs made the finals. Damn you, Ray Allen.
@@Arturo_Kilgore_Morgan yeah but his teamates were injured and t mac just wanted a ring
Michael Jordan took rings off the fingers of a lot of great nba players
I say this all the time. He's literally the reason why Ewing, Reggie Miller, Malone, Stockton, Charles Barkley, and Dominique don't have rings
Out of all his arguments for the 🐐 that's the strongest one. Look how many elite dudes he stopped from winning a ring
@@alooney8299 I mean he had stacked teams and the best coach ever. MJ had a lot of advantages besides being an amazing player
@@GinkgoPete LOL
@@GinkgoPete The first 3-peat, it was just him and Pippen. Phil Jackson wasn't the greatest coach ever when he first joined the Bulls. It's like Pat Riley went from the Lakers to the Bulls and MJ had the greatest coach ever could you say that. Jackson was a no namer. You can thank MJ for making him an all time great too.
Reggie Miller should be on this list.
At the very least in the mention. Like wtf
And westbrook and harden are here like their nba careers are over to say that theyve never won a ring
@@areyounotentertained4133 Well we already know Westbrick will never get a ring and Harden collapses in the playoffs and they're both getting old so probably not gonna happen
Except all he could do was shoot the 3. 0x All-Defensive teams, 0x scoring champ, has never averaged more than 25 PPG and only averaged more than 22 PPG twice in his 18 year career. Dude is not replacing anyone on this list or the honorable mentions
He’s good but he’s not a MVP candidate like the rest of the list.
The heyday of the Knicks was because of Ewing.
The Knicks have collapsed since his departure, so you can see how great Ewing's presence was.
If he beat Olajuwon in 1994 and won the championship... If they beat the Bulls with Jordan even once and went to the finals and won...
Not bad, but the rating would have been higher.
You can also see how bad the New York decisions were.
I will never forget the season where the Knicks WITH Ewing lingered around the 8th place. Then he got hurt and the Knicks advanced to the finals. Ewing was a terrible ball stopper on offense.
Who tf is Tingus pingus
'If he beat Olajuwon.'
Knicks had a chance to beat Hakeem that series, but that was in spite of Ewing, and he certainly would not have won FMVP if they did. Not even hating, Hakeem was just that good and shut him down.
This aged badly now that Joel is on the team lol
Chris Paul is ringless because of Chris Paul. He gets injured and has his worst games at the most crucial moments.
You are right, CP showed his flaws during the Dallas series and he wasn't even injured then, and you cant blame the team they were the 1st seed.
Fr choked a 2-0 finals lead and got injured when they were up 3-2 vs the warriors
That beat down from Luka and the Mavs this year unfortunately added fuel to this narrative
Facts and he's a choker
He’s 37 of course he plays bad he’s not even in his prime anymore so stop blaming him for playing bad and getting injured
The best player is Elgin Baylor he technically won cus he played 6 games of the championship season so he technically has a ring
It proves how shitty of a player he was if they won without him 🤷♀️
Well they don't count that as a ring 💍
@@ultritlagg4000 mostly because he didn’t play, which give players an asterisk in chips. It does make sense
He doesn’t have a ring it’s a fact he didn’t play they didn’t give him one
Rip
Bill Russel stole all the titles R.I.P Bill
there’s a lot of greats who had to go up against teams that were just unbeatable and you can’t blame them for losing, there still all time greats
@Raytheslay at what exactly?
@Raytheslay omg 😱
@@qdakid7776 handles, 3pt shooting thats it i think
AJay so ur saying i dont gotta feel shamed when i say karl malone is the 4th best nba player ever
No you should feel ashamed Karl Malone is too 20
Damn the start of the breakdown of Iverson was disrespectful as hell
Agreed
I thought the same 😂
Same
Feel bad for Elgin Baylor 😢😔
Kind of crazy that two of the top four played nearly their entire careers together...
Also funny that Westbrook and Harden were teammates with two different teams. Maybe they should try to team up with Chris Paul...
harden did with CP3 and failed
2 good-bad players + a second pg? yeah that'd definitely work
They gave Elgin a ring tho? He was technically still on “contract” so he is a champ basically. Even tho he didn’t play the whole year I still think he should be recognized as a champ
Plus Tyron lue won a chip with the lakers only playing 8 games in a season, so why can’t Elgin be?
@@theodorebax6922 Easy enough: Elgin retired and was no longer on the roster. Lue didn't retire and was on the roster.
100% Agree
Jordan denying Malone & Stockton back-to-back years will never not be legendary
Remember, Chuck Daily told Sir Barkley he was the 2nd best player on the dream team. That says a lot about how good Barkley really was. I think many sleep on him.
We all know who was the sheriff on that team.
AI is so much better then Chris Paul
Iverson got quiet a bit of steals, he was a pretty good defender.
My list
1. Karl Malone
2. Chris Paul
3. John Stockton
4. Charles Barkley
5. James Harden
6. Steve Nash
7. Elgin Baylor
8. Allen Iverson
9. Russell Westbrook
10. Patrick Ewing
Cp3 is way too high
@@jacobway468 switch him and ai then its perfect
@@dmcarter1512 ah westbrook clears
@@dmcarter1512 fax!!
No Ewing is too low
Nonstop: Elgin Bailer does have a ring! In his last year of playing with the Lakers, the Lakers team, owners and management did give Elgin a NBA Championship ring! Even though Elgin didn't play in that last championship game!
If I took these top 10 players I would definitely switch them around a lot.
1. Charles Barkley
2. Karl Malone
3. Elgin Baylor
4. John Stockton
5. Allen Iverson
6. Chris Paul
7. James Harden
8. Patrick Ewing
9. George Gervin
10. Russel Westbrook
Melo got snubbed
Barkley is not better than Malone. Two way star vs one way offensive star
@@Thanosdidtherighthing prime Barkley was way more dominant player than prime Malone. Wtf r u even talking about? Ignore the regular seasons and look at their playoffs career, it's clear as day who was the better player.
Malone should be #13 cus it’s his favorite number, just ask the underaged chicks he laid out on the sheets
@@blankblankblankblank4150 outta pocket 💀
Great video as always and i love how u point out all the players flaws as well but a few of the players are still active and ring fingers crossed they'll get at least one ring before it's over.. especially Westbrook and Paul..Nash should be more than an honorable mention...really sad that Stockton and Malone(especially in 2004)
Great list!!! 🤩🤩💯💯
0:12
George never won a ring, ABA or NBA - but he's one of the *7* "unanimous" selections to the All ABA Team.
IMO "The Iceman" should be ranked higher on this list.
Most of them was because of mj on 90's MJ was the king of east
@Raytheslay Anthony Bennett > Iverson all time
@Raytheslay I know your weed is da 💣 bro lol 😂
@Raytheslay Did you hit your head or something?
8:37
Wilt and Bill Russell (consider his HIGH JUMP history) could out-muscle Sir Charles.
Shaq probably could as well.
For his HEIGHT or POSITION though, Charles was possibly the strongest at lower-body.
You know its a good day when Nonstop Sports upload a vid
saying iverson isnt top 20 all time is a little crazy. hes the fourth or fifth best sg of all time
Kevin Durant is lucky to have GSW to stand on to get those rings
😂Yet who's the greatest PLAYER in that team GSW 2017-2018 & made Steph his Robin?- gsw knew what they had to deal against upcoming force in LBJ. 2016 would repat itself if it wasn't For KD. GSW went to KD for help in longisland not the otherway around😂
VC & T-Mac should get honorable mentions too
Great video 👏
Great video
Can you please do next how good was David Robinson actually or Clyde Drexler or Reggie Miller??!!
David has 2 rings bruh
@@MarajFaraj6699 soo what??
What does that have to do anything with the video how good he was if u dont watch his content and series of "how good he was" then u don't know what im talking about
@@MarkoMilovanovic2332 Bro i just thought that you meant why they weren't in the vid (i know clyde has 1 aswell), just read ur comment wrong, no reason to be mad
@@MarajFaraj6699 man i wasnt mad 😅😅 really i wasnt mad bro i just thought u didn't knew about it and that u were saying that i puttet David and Clyde for the best players that never won a ring really i wasnt mad dude i know damn well that they have a ring
@@MarkoMilovanovic2332 aight man just seemed like it😂
The fact that Iverson is 9th on this list is so disrespectful 🤦🏻
Ewing is too low also and Reggie didn’t even get a mention
More disrespectful is Westbrook is ranked higher than AI on this list
Good job man keep it up
Paul should behind Stockton and Barkley, they were better than he is and actually made real clutch plays to get to the finals. Not too mention that they only lost because of Jordan, while Paul has held himself back multiple times.
Good list overall though.
Barkley maybe. Stockton definitely not. Paul's a better scorer, defender and passing is up for debate. Stockton was not clutch. He was very weak mentally and that weakness is a huge reason the jazz never won anything.
I don’t know about y’all but I fucking miss watching A.I play 😭😭😭😭
100%
For current NBA players, Carmelo deserves a ring than every all star of former all star player. Carmelo been in the league since 2003 and still hasn’t won a ring. I’d rather see Carmelo win a ring than CP3
Carmelo choose to play in new york of all places.
@@lamchunting856 He could’ve made it work but I mostly blame Phil Jackson for being a terrible GM
A.I definitely top 25. Without a doubt.
Crazy how a guy who hated and barely practiced got an mvp and was good enough to be an all star just imagine if he had kobe’s mentality
Now do top 10 worst players to win multiple championships.
Javale McGee
I'm shocked Alex English isn't on this list. He scored more points in the 1980s than anybody. Look it up
same
Watching you nonstop
Eh CP3 kinda blew two really good chances.
he got injured the first time in 18 and was coming off of one in 21
@@jit1709 a lot of players have come off injuries and still one. He's just a choke artist
@@patrickgattiker9765 every1 makes excuses for cp3 but westbrook its all his fault
@@jit1709 actually he was injured at the time of the finals in 2021 and same as Booker.
@@liamiangaming7931 so was giannis hyperextended his knee i believe it was against the hawks cp3 just hurt his finger from what i remember
Another honorable mention should be Reggie Miller.
Cp3 & Melo is the only ones who can still win championships but they time is extremely limited.
The fact that iverson is number NINE is crazy
He had no team and he was a god on the court. He’s easily top 15 all time
No his 2001 squad was good and they stepped up in the playoffs. They had the sixth man of the year, defensive player of the year and rebounding champ, and league MVP. Till this day no team has had all this people in one team. So I don't want to hear the crap that he didn't have help
lol, CP3 the best! That just made my day
I personally think A.I is the most talented person to ever play in the NBA he just didn't work hard at all to get to peak of his potential
Agreed. His work ethic was questionable at best. If he got his head down and went to work, he would've never been on this list.
But the mailman failed to deliver on Sundays. 😅👍
Chris Paul freezes up in the big moments
Allen Iverson deserved a ring or two he definitely deserved a championship ring
agreed
You have to earn a ring. You don't, "deserve" it, until you win it. Everyone on this list falls under that category. Fantastic players, just not in the right situations at the right times.
Elgin Baylor is like cursed to not win a ring.
The mailman: Never delivered a ring

Jordan kobe shaq Duncan steff and LeBron James stopped a lot of players of getting rings
I dont think AI would be in 9th place
He led his trash team in the 2001 nba finals
PG Aaron McKie
SG Allen Iverson
SF Jumaine Jones
PF Tyrone Hill
C Dikembe Mutombo (35 year old)
yeah
Eric snow was point
5:54
Jerry West can argue the point with 9 Finals before he finally got a ring.
He and Elgin were teammates for all of their "misses", while Elgin retired JUST BEFORE Jerry finally was on a winner.
3:30 how could you forget Josh Hart, a Laker legend
6:38
Baylor WAS given a ring by the Lakers after the 1972 Finals.
He IS however Championshipless.
Karl Malone deserves a ring. He is a talent on and off the court
With the shit he did, I think he didn’t deserve a ring
@@dannychamberlain6244 he can win a ring for basketball and pay with time in jail if he committed a crime. Two different things.
@@truthseeker8139 off court he did it with a 12 year old and left the child
Westbrook and Chris Paul being better than Iverson is a very good joke
Crazy you have AI behind harden and Westbrook
I know people don’t like channel campers but
First?
No lol
Mj stole so many peoples championship dreams 😂
If players on lists like this played together, they shouldn't be on this list. They're just not good enough. It's quite funny though how a lot of people rate Malone higher than Barkley, while Malone played with Stockton during their primes. If Malone never played with Stockton, he would just be a T-mac. If Barkley played with Stockton, the chances of him having a ring would be a whole lot higher
8:46
Charles level of *FAT* prior to Phily and mentorship from Moses Malone are why he called HIMSELF the "round mound of rebound".
CP3 weakness is his health in the playoffs
And choking
@@kb._.84 Yeah his health. Durability and Availability is so UNDERRATED
they lost 2021 cuz Cp3 start flopping and not playing game
This is such a myth. He gets injured because he gets frustrated and reckless and starts flopping and playing dirty. He’s a front runner.
CP3 is a playoff choker
Russel Westbrook has never shattered a rim
I know this can have multiple parts. Maybe even a top 100 list of great players to never win a ring.
Finally someone putting respect on Russel Westbrook’s name
Chris Paul was just a plain out choker
AI did alot with less. I ask ppl all the time, who was the second best player on that finals team? Aaron Mckie? Dikembe? Eric Snow?! Like come on, he CARRIED that team on his back
Mutombo was DPOY the season they went to the Finals. That whole team was built to let AI score and everyone else play defense
well to be fair wasn't dikembe far past his prime
@@Mamah_Tee yeh, but he still won dpoy that year
They had NO ONE….I remember them teams, and the one time they get Larry Huges, they trade him🤷🏽♂️
Iverson one of the 🐐🐐 even with out a ring
true
Hey I mentioned this suggestion in a video thanks guys
Chris Paul is way too high
Fax
Iverson should be 6th above harden russ and the others
I guess we’re giving up on the active players on this list 😂
Funny how 80’s was historic for bird N magic
But MJ took over the 90’s 6 rings in 10 years 🙌🏽👏🏽
AI is the best player to never win a championship
Thanks, this is excellent. I have AI higher, yes, because of his heart, he would never give in, and he was fearless, just like Stockton. And I would have included 2 x MVP Steve Nash, maybe the savviest player (pace Larry Bird), a level which Trae Young is quickly attaining.
Can u guys do a video abiut who is the GOAT OF GOATS MICHAEL JORDAN VS TOM BRADY i just think it would be an interested video
They can’t compare who’s better when there’s different criteria for the two different sports. It’s like trying to compare tiger woods to Ronaldo it makes no sense bc the sports are so different. Physicality,speed/pace,eras and way more other stuff
firet
Why was the big O in the intro clips? He has a ring.
He had it with Kareem in Milwaukee.
Stev Nash?
love how in the best players 6ft and under AI is above CP but in this CP is above AI
Rubio guarding Harden from behind was actually successful that game
2009 LeBron? 2018 LeBron? 2015 LeBron?
Doesent even make any sense
2018
15
Elgin Baylor was such a tragic case. Should have won in 69. Just too injured and done to play out the 72 season. Pete Maravich could also be on the list.. Was going to go to the 76ers who were contenders but that fell through because they wanted to do a rectal exam and that freaked him out. Went to the Celtics instead and retired in the 80-81 preseason because Bill Fitch hated him and of course the Celtics won that year.
"the mail man, the man who always delivers" like that time he delivered a baby to a 13yd girl 💀💀
I believe Charles is better the CP3
I hate Charles Barkley
Cp3 over Barkley? No way
To be honest I would put Stockton as number 1. The guy was a MONSTER as a point guard. He was very skilled, had phenomenal IQ, one of the best playmakers and one of the best ball thieves
I missed Gervin and Baylor cuz of obvious reasons and had T-Mac & Vinsanity instead..
