You right no excuses, that’s why he won a title with many players from that same team a few years later. Guess Bean Ball did work.
You mean like how Bron won a title in 16 with damn near the same squad minus his only other legitimate help
Kobe's classic game 7 against the Suns

Bruh, just make an argument and let's leave the emotions out of it. Where's the evidence that Kobe became a better leader and teammate? He wasn't a good leader and teammate during the Dwight Howard years. He wasn't a good leader or teammate during his last few injury riddled years with that young crew. He was never a particularly good teammate or leader.
think that Kobe was a great player. He just wasn't as good as his fans believe him to be. His career wasn't dumb luck, it was god given attributes/talent mixed with a lot of hard work and a lot of good fortune. As great as Kobe was he was even more fortunate. If he had began his career in Charlotte, it plays out completely different. There's no guarantee he gets 1 ring, let alone 5.
Your question is irrelevant because my point isn't about him shooting. My point isn't about his lack of effort. If you say that he was following the "be a playmaker for others" game plan then fine, but that doesn't explain why he wasn't being a playmaker for others
He wasn't doing ANYTHING, is my point. He had clearly quit.Love was a whopping 9-28 from 3 in the finals. Stop it man. I stand by what I said. That version of Odom would've been a better fit for this cavs team than Love. People think that th only way to play with Lebron is to be a spot up shooter but that's just ignorance of the game. An Odom type player wouldn't have to be a spot up shoote playing with Lebron. A guy who could actually create off of the dribble could easily play the draymond green role in "bron-ball" and take advantage of mini 3on2s and 2on1s that the attention Lebron draws. If the cavs had anybody that could create consistently off of the dribble besides Lebron they would've been a much better match for the warriors. Plus that version of Odom was his own match up problem.
He willed them to 3 wins? Smush Parker outscored him during one of those wins

he also led the team in assist that game. He was clearly trying to get other ppl involved when he was having an off night
Kobe only had 1 assist.... the whole game, so he quit flat out. Plus the Lakers were only down 10 at halftime, so it wasn't like they were getting blown out. like you said, he went into pout mode. Where's @Sccit? he was putting up a good rebuttal when I brought the Suns series.
BECAUSE I SPEAK THE TRUTH ....
KOBE NEVER QUIT .. HE SCORED 20 IN THE FIRST 2 QUARTERS AND LAKERS WAS DOWN 15 AT THE HALF
PHIL JACKSON’S GAMEPLAN WAS FOR KOBE TO FALL BACK AND ALLOW THE OTHERS TO TRY AND GET IT GOING .. KOBE DID AS INSTRUCTED, AS THERE WAS NO WAY HE COULD BEAT THE SUNS SINGLE-HANDEDLY
THIS SAME EXACT GAMEPLAN WAS IMPLAMENTED IN GAME 4 WHERE KOBE DIDN’T SHOOT IN THE 4TH UNTIL THE FINAL BASKET HE MADE TO SEND THE GAME TO OT - BUT WAS THAT “QUITTING” WHEN IT LED TO A LAKER VICTORY?
THIS WHOLE “QUITTING” THING IS JUST LEBRON FANS REACHING TO TRY AND DRAW PARALLELS BETWEEN THEIR KING AND A GOAT
He willed them to 3 wins? Smush Parker outscored him during one of those wins

SO WAS HE QUITTING HERE WHEN HE ALLOWED LUKE WALTON TO SHOOT AS MANY SHOTS AS HIM AND IT LED TO A LAKER VICTORY?
LOL
FACE IT, HE WAS JUST INCREDIBLE AT GETTING TERRIBLE PLAYERS TO LOOK DECENT - UNLIKE YALL KING WHO DOES THE EXACT OPPOSITE

That pu$$y got me grinning
More superstars should do it instead of letting rich owners get away with being cheap fukks

Pass me the rock nikka
Kobe stans, ya'll.
Kobe wasn't as overmatched as LeBron was. They went to 7 because they had superior coaching, the Suns weren't a good defensive team, and they had a gameplan of pounding them on the boards and slowing down the tempo because they had a much bigger frontcourt. The '07 Suns aren't even on the Dubs level, they didn't even have STAT that year. It doesn't matter if games weren't a blow out by halftime, the Dubs always coast through the first half and then destroy you in the third quarter everybody knows that. It's a 73-9 team that added Kevin fukking Durant.
The only game LeBron could have won was the first one where he dropped 51, and we saw what happened between the officiating, Hill missing the game clinching FT, and J.R.'s blunder. That's the only game they could have possibly won. Nikkas can't do it alone, Jordan was putting up numbers and getting swept out the First Round the whole 80's.
Also, you acting like LeBron didn't take the Warriors to 6 in 2015 without Kyrie and Love.
