[CarbonBraddock]

so i guess since lebron has the most haters, then that means he is the greatest?

Why you made sure to downplay the Nets, avoid 2009 and didn’t show Paus numbers for 2010

because the WCF was the real finals not the finals. Kobe played well but he was being guarded by antonio daniels and terry porter.

Pau and the crew dominate in 2010.

Kobe shot 6-24 in a game 7 and still got MVP....Demar goes 5-19 and gets benched.

 

[B1G_controversy]

what does lebron even have to do with this thread?

Real life example. i referred to his stans not him per se

If only Kobe was guarded by the talents of Cam Payne, Mudiay or Joe Young.

What about Tim Duncan? He still won MVP after going 10-27 in Game 7. Bench Kobe and the Lakers lose. 10 points in the 4th and had 15 rebs while playing steller defense.

So Dwane Casey didn't have your boy Norman Powell to rely on when he benched Demar?

 

[SunZoo]

fukk outta here

If you are TRULY great nobody would doubt what they are seeing...

Did we DOUBT MJ?

What about Tom Brady or Peyton Manning?

What about LeBron James?

This is Philosophical Kobe talkin too much tryin to sound smart

fukk Popcorn Love James Harden and his popcorn fakkit style of play

Kobe never shyts on younger players and Harden idolizes Kobe. I know enough about Kobe to know that he doesn't honestly fukk with the way Harden plays basketball.

It's like ya'll completely missing the fact that Kobe was really talking about himself

That whole minimizing greatness is a shot at these analytics nerds who try and diminish him with advanced stats.

Everyone you named outside of Jordan has been doubted or downplayed to some degree.

shyt, even Jordan has been doubted before his first title. People were calling him a choker and an selfish player that will never be a champion

MJ was doubted and downplayed until he won a title

The GOAT has spoken

All players are "doubted" before winning titles. The list I initially responded to had people down playing them even after being champions...except Jordan.
