He would only have a year or two left by now. They have set their franchise mark for worst season three years in a row and instead of Dwight, the money was given to Carlos Boozer, Roy Hibbert, and Jordan Hill. I don't know how anyone can claim that the Lakers dodged one :dead:

Damn, you're actually right.

Dwight has been winning rings left and right since he left us. We fukked up. :wow:

Thats an avoidance breh. Youre the one who made the statement. Im asking you to back up the statements.

Edit: the gap between Kobe and Jerry West or Bird is like the gap between Dwight and Bill Russell?


its not an avoidance. your post is just disrespectful to the game. you should be arguing up, not arguing down.

its like, if I'm trying to place a guy like say jadakiss in the top 10, I'm gonna argue up. I'm not gonna argue down and ask "what has melle mel done to be above jadakiss?"

jerry west is in the same boat as kobe. the rest of those guys are clearly above kobe and are generally considered top 10. kobe is more of a top 20 guy.

He's been making the playoffs and contributing to a competitive team that is worth watching. Hope you enjoyed watching slop like Roy Hibbert and Carlos Boozer over the last 3 years, I know I have :lolbron:

Lol but this is you once again avoiding the question.

How are those guys clearly above Kobe and why is Jerry west in the same boat? Is it championships? Season/playoff stats? Records? The competition they played against? Just the eye test? I mean Jerry West for example only won one title and this was before the three point line... And the team he won with had Wilt Chamberlain.

I'm not avoiding the question. if somebody is trying to tell me that kobe is better than Oscar Robertson, I'm not gonna argue up like I have something to prove. its a waste of time breh. THATS YOUR JOB, and then we build from there. youre the one with something to prove. Oscar is widely considered the goat. kobe usually isn't even considered top 10 by historians.

as for jerry west, I rank kobe higher than him. but theyre in the same boat, and I don't bat an eye when I see West ranked ahead of him. kobe wouldn't have won any titles period against those Celtics squads, even with Wilt. kobe barely even got by the late '00s Celtics, and only because of injuries.

Im only entertaining this nonsense because of how infrequently you respond. How is Oscar Robertson widely considered the GOAT? And under what Metrics is Jerry West better than Kobe :dead:

Do you have some footage to compare Oscar Robertson to Kobe? One legendary game at least? Some reference?

I never said I thought jerry west is better than kobe.

lol @ labeling my posts as nonsense when youre the one asking questions like the bolded. I see that I'm wasting my time here, and youre cool from TSC so I don't want this to turn into an exchange of insults. but it looks like all-time basketball convos aren't your thing. at least not at this point. it sounds like you don't know anything about these guys that youre arguing against.

I dont have a single post in TSC my breh, but I got nothing against you. Im asking you, if I wanted to see why Oscar Robertson was better than Kobe, where could I get this information? What footage could I watch to give me a clear picture? Do I simply go of the words of experts?

Okay and after reviewing Oscar Robertson footage... He didnt look to be a better player than Kobe in my opinion. He dribbled with one hand and had an awkward jumpshot. Im also certain he was not as athletic as Kobe... What visual ques should I be looking at? What game footage specifically puts him over Kobe? Can you reference something for me?
