List them,
I'll go accolade for accolade for you, since you think we're going 'around' the argument and I'm not supporting by literally saying what I've already said, so we'll end it here.
List all the achievement russell has done that has impressed you and I'll counter it, since for some reason that's not resonating or getting lost in translation somehow.
The floor is yours.
In 13 seasons:
-11 time NBA Champion
-5 time MVP
-12 time All-Star
-11 time All-NBA
-4 time Rebounding Champion (against wilt chamberlain, since it matters "who they played")
-2 time Hall of Famer (inducted as both player and coach)
-1 NBA All Defense (award was only created in his last year playing, it is widely considered he would have made it frequently if it had existed)
-1 jersey retired league wide
-2x NCCA National champion
-Olympic Gold medalist
-NBA Finals MVP Award is named after him
-NBA Lifetime Achievement Award
-Presidential Medal of Freedom for his civil rights activism.
All the other fun stuff you'll counter with with Jordan, either didn't exist when Russell played or came in just his last year. But here's Jordans resume on comparable stats in 15 years:
-6 time NBA Champion
-5 time MVP
-10 All NBA
-9 All Defense
-14 time all star
-1 NCAA National Championship
-2 time Olympic Gold Medalist
-1 time Hall of Famer (2009)
- Presidential Medal of Freedom for his cultural impact
Decide for yourself which resume has more accolades. And again, you can't count things like DPOY for Jordan, because they didn't exist for Russell. Gotta measure with the same stick. Your rules.
