Rings, though important, should not be the main consideration for GOAt status.
Same with All Star appearances (cause, for example, in the last 10 years any chump could get into the All Star game if you played in the East).

Of course all nba should trump all star selections since starting 5s are picked exclusively by the fans.

I think if Duncan wins another title an argument could be made that he is top 3 all time.

At this point, I think there's no reason to say that Duncan would have to win X number more rings to be considered in the top Y players. He's been in the league for 17 years. As an individual and a team player, you know exactly what he brings. Him winning another championship (or not) isn't going to change my opinion of him. He has a ridiculous number of accolades already.

Yes.

His last ring, and his next ring are as a role player. He is with Kobe and MJ as far as being way ahead of Lebron, but that's it. He isn't past Kobe, MJ, Magic, Wilt, Kareem, etc.

All-NBA selections should be FAR more important than All Star appearances.
