Kobe Bryant: "It's Championship or Bust....It's not about Regular Season MVPs"
- Thread starter Newzz
- Start date
Lebron game already surpassed Kobe in my eyes. Compare Kobe when he came into the league to Lebron when he came. Dude carried the cavaliers, a team of fakkits, with Mike Brown as the coach who was really just a season ticket holder with the best seats.
Lebron was the only option, I ain't seen a cavalier game on TV since they left, they got Kyrie who is shaping up to be a great player, but he can't carry that sorry ass team like Lebron did.
Probably with Lebron is, he's a nice guy and not an a$$hole, and for some reason people look like that as a negative.

ask barkley, malone, nash, iverson if they'd trade their mvp awards for a ring
Of course they will, what's the point tho. This whole ring argument, is just dumb.
Bron has one ring, because guess what, up until last season, he wasn't on the best team simple and plain.
Had Kobe been drafted by or played for anyone off the teams in the lottery that year, or had Shaq not gone to the Lakers.
Kobe would be just like those players in yor post.

What's your point?
He wasnt drafted to the lakers straight up. He dictated were he wanted to go. The "goat franchise" remember.
Building a championship team from the ground up, na he ain't bout that life.
Bron put his bum ass city on the map while kobe basically held out.

How about win both
So wade ain't flabby no more to laker Stans? He just as good as a top 5 center/pf of a championship team......hmmmmmmm
would u trade wade and bosh for pau and bynum?
and how does that take away from kobes point? had he never won a ring he'd be seen as a huge failure, which was what he was saying from the beginning.
mvps in the grand scheme of things are meaningless without a title.
Yeah if that team he was on with Shaq, didn't win, then yeah, I could see your point.
But since when are Malone, Iverson, Nash and Barkley considered failure. The simply weren't on the best teams.
And they all got the most out of their talents.
why is kobe so obsessed with Bron? Last night was the happiest he has been all season. He is always takin shots. He is the one comparing himself to Lebron....even though he is the one with 5 rings.....sad...
this is the most 100percent realist post in this thread. kobe's emotion those last several minutes of that all star game was the most excitement i seen from him all season. dude is a great baller that i respect tremendously, but he really does force some of this on himself when it doesnt exist. lebron just doesnt care what kobe or mike thinks or want him to think. just like last year when kobe yelled at bron for passing up the final shot. bron like, i got a bigger picture in mind. kobe wants bron to sieze the moment, its a fukin all star game.

I would trade bosh for finals MVP Gasol
. I don't know about wade and Bynum. But I'm not gonna discount that bynums shear precence didn't have an impact on games.I would proly roll the dice and trade two healthy 7 footers for bosh and wade.
Lebron was on the best team in 2011
They may have had the best talent, but they weren't the best team. They were still learning how to play together.
We were saying Bynum was the best Center in the NBA.......LAST YEAR in 2012.
Nobody was saying that shyt from 2008-2010 when we went to 3 straight NBA Finals
Look at his playoff numbers and you tell ME if Wade/Bosh wasnt better than Gasol/Bynum2008 Regular Season: 13.1 pts/10.2 rebs/2.1 blks
2008 Playoffs: He didnt play
2009 Regular Season: 14.3 pts/8 rebs/1.8 blks
2009 Playoffs: 6.3 pts/3.7 rebs/.9 blks
2010 Regular Season 15 pts/8.3 rebs/1.4 blks
2010 Playoffs: 8.6 pts/6.9 rebs/1.6 blks

Kobe was part of the Lakers before Shaq was
So. What, you tryna say, Kobe saw no difference between the lakers and Charlotte other than the uniforms?
Goat franchise, remember? We're does Charlotte rank breh?
