that is your retort breh? :laff:

that whole getting tired in finals after finals is exagerrated...that is like saying if a franchise player makes the playoffs for 10 straight years they are "extra tired" :dead:

kobe ain't even conditioned well...dude has been struggling to play a full season for 3 years now...

still hasn't learned his lesson from working out like 7 days a week...

kobe is vegeta and bron is goku

like vegeta..kobe works his ass of and never rests and that is why he fails...

So why didn't LeBron finish the Warriors off then? When Kobe has to carry a shyt squad in the twilight of his career its bad conditioning but when you're consider the best player in the world but you disappeared the idea that he's tired is exaggerated. Stop quoting me nikka, your whole premise is fukkin stupid and if the Lakers were actually good enough to go back to the Finals next year best believe we winning that shyt.

Kobe in his prime with Gasol, Bynum, Ariza, Artest, Odom, Fisher would beat the Warriors in 5

we never had both at the same time. those 09/10 lakers were more like an out of prime kobe (remember he was 30 and 31 during those series) with gasol, odom, an injured bynum, ariza/artest, and a barely hanging on fisher.

its incredible kobe was able to get to them to 3 straight finals and 2 rings in the loaded west.

very weak

the alvin gentry suns got to the WCF :francis:

the gentry suns are pretty much what the 2015 warriors are. http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/PHO/2010.html

steph curry = steve nash
klay thompson > jason richardson
harrison barnes = grant hill
draymond green <<< amare stoudemire
andrew bogut = robin lopez

gsw bench (Igoudala, Lee, Barbosa, Livingston) = phx bench (Goran Dragic, younger Barbosa, jared dudley, channing frye)

you're really underrating the 2010 suns. they swept the spurs 4-0 that year in the semis. they pushed the lakers to 6 games almost winning the critical game 5 in staples if not for the artest follow.

I personally would give them a 50/50 chance to beat the 2015 warriors.

Yeah we know nikka but even with a top 15 player OAT team wasn't that great but the competition was meh in the West I see why

I think you mean top 10. even the biggest kobe hater can't name 10 guys with better RESUMES than kobe. fukkin bill simmons who hates kobe had him rated 8th all-time. http://sportslistoftheday.com/2012/...-time-bill-simmons-vs-slam-online-vs-the-nba/

IMO, the lowest anyone can rate Kobe OBJECTIVELY is 9th all-time. this means taking titles, mvps, finals mvps, career stats, all-nba 1st teams, etc. into account.

1. Jordan
2. Kareem
3. Russell

---these 3 CLEARLY have more impressive basketball resumes than kobe----

4. Magic
5. Duncan
6. Shaq
7. Bird
8. Wilt

you could argue these 5 as well, though I would say outside of Magic, I'd give Kobe the edge over the rest. but in the end, i can see arguments for the other 5. the only other guys who could conceivably be placed above Kobe is LeBron. and if he loses another finals, that comparison will be laughable.

IMO Kobe is the 5th greatest player ever after Jordan, Russell, Kareem, and Magic. but I wouldn't fault anyone if they had him rated 6-9. however, saying he isn't in the top 10 at all is criminal.
