who REALLY wants a ring?

[ronyell]

so me & my pawtna were talking about players that the Rockets could pick up next season & the conversation side-tracked to players that are TRULY have a BURNING DESIRE to win championships & that is there sole reason for playing the game.

we were only able to come to a list of 11 & here it is in no paricular order:

LeBron James
Kobe Bryant
Tim Duncan
Kevin Garnett
Paul Pierce
Ray Allen
Dwayne Wade
Chauncy Billups
Yao Ming
Chris Paul
Brandon Roy (his playoff performance, demeanor & interviews extended the list to 11)

we honestly couldn't think of anyone else that we would add to this list with confidence.

your thoughts?

I'd say LeBron only wants championships to build his name.

I consider these guys to be the ultimate eat, drink sleep basketball and that want to win at all costs.

Shaq
Nash
Tony Parker
Manu
TMac
CP3
Deron
Dirk

I'd put Grant Hill on here before I'd put Nash.

I don't think he would be as great as he is if that's all he played for.

Grant Hill doesn't strike me as a guy who is going to lose sleep over not winning the title. All the guys that I listed strike me as so.

TMac pretty much got choked up after losing against Utah.. I mean that says a lot to me.

there's a lot i could say about T-Mac wanting a ring but i dont want this thread to get locked up... he got chocked up because he knew what the media would say about his "legacy"

just wondering was ur list an extension of the original list?
