But then love made it to the finals last year he just didn't play.

It's hard to tell. Iguodala looked like he would retire ring-less, but he ended up in a great system as a backup option. Any of those players could ring chase at the end of their careers.

Least likely: Vince, Amare, Carmelo
Middle of the road (an Iguodala situation): Deron, Harden, Marc
Very likely before their career ends: Aldridge, George, CP3, Blake

And Love doesn't count since his team made the Finals last year.

You can't make it if you don't play.

Had they won he would have gotten a ring all the same.

Impossible to answer as any of those guys could play their last year or two with a contender for veteran minimum and get a ring.

They don't need to win the ring, just get to the finals.
Forgot to mention that the player must play at least 50% of the final games (24 minutes per game).

My answer is still roughly the same. Many of those guys could go 6th man in their 30's and do that.
