The "winning player" label has evaded the Hornets star for years, and that is (mostly) not his fault.
What does it mean to be a winning player in the NBA? Does one ring vindicate a player? Does a career with multiple Finals losses deserve a "winning player" label more than a career filled with first-round exits and then one magical run? Is there any way to actually measure the value of a player's wins?
I don't know the answer to most of those questions.
