Let's Don't Forget Bill Russell

I'm tired of hearing increasing discussions about whether Kobe has matched Michael for the mythical "best player ever" title. I have an answer to that debate:

Bill Russell.

I win. Mine beats yours. Eleven championships. One as a coach-player. (How's Micheal's career in management worked?)

Oh, and in terms of social significance? This becomes a laughable discussion. Plus, I'd take Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, or LeBron James over Kobe in any case.
