A simple inventory of the superstars who have at least reached the divisional finals since the 90s of the 20th century have actually been crownless for life.
Charles Barkley led the Phoenix Suns to the Finals in 1993, but lost to Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls. Barkley was an 11-time All-Star in his career and won one regular-season MVP, but did not have a championship ring.
Karl Malone, who led the Utah Jazz to the Finals with John Stockton in 1997 and 1998, also lost to Jordan's Bulls. Malone was selected as an All-Star 14 times in his career, won two regular-season MVPs, and did not have a championship ring.
Patrick Ewing, who led the New York Knicks to the Finals in 1994, lost to the Houston Rockets. Ewing was an 11-time All-Star in his career, a one-time All-Defensive Team and no championship ring.
Allen Iverson, who led the Philadelphia 76ers to the Finals in 2001, lost to Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal's Los Angeles Lakers. Iverson was an 11-time All-Star in his career, a one-time regular-season MVP, and no championship ring.
Steve Nash, who led the Phoenix Suns to the Western Conference Finals two years in a row in 2005 and 2006, lost to the San Antonio Spurs and Dallas Mavericks, respectively. Nash was an 8-time All-Star, a 2-time regular-season MVP, and no championship ring.
Reggie Miller, also an NBA superstar who failed to win a championship, is one of the best three-point shooters in history and one of the most lethal scorers in the playoffs. He was an All-Star for 10 consecutive years from 1990 to 2000, winning the three-point title once, but never winning a championship. His career-high achievement was leading the Pacers to the Finals in 2000, but ultimately lost to the Lakers.
Tracy McGrady is also an NBA superstar who failed to win a championship, but his primeage was relatively short and his playoff performances were not consistent enough. He was an All-Star for seven consecutive years from 2001 to 2008, winning the scoring title twice but never reaching the Finals. His career-high achievement was reaching the Western Conference Finals as a backup for the Spurs in 2013, but ultimately lost to the Heat.
As for who suppressed that star without a crown, you can also recall it, and welcome to continue to replenish the superstar without a crown for life.
