Many people taunt Barkley, Ewing, Stockton, Malone, Miller for not having an NBA ring. However, they all won a gold medal.

Like you stated some view a NBA title as the most important thing but to others a goal medal is a once in a lifetime accomplishment and more people are aware of the status of owning a gold medal.|||If you already have a ring, an Olympic Gold Medal is more important. If you don't have a ring yet, a ring is more important.|||I would also take the medal because the whole world knows about that|||I would say a ring|||NBA ring
