He was much better in 2008 if you take away the finals.

I just wish kobe had a competent team during his prime 05-06 years when he was around 27-28(lebron's age right now) averaging 35+, kobe would probably have 7 titles by now.

They definitely get to the finals in 06' with a decent team(like the 08' Squad)

Kobe has already built his legacy as one of the greatest players of all-time.
Another title won't really mean much.

And there will always be the question of whether he'd have won those titles without Shaq. That's just a part of the deal when you play with the most dominant inside force in the game.

Great player. Just leave it at that. People get so caught up in trying to define "the best".

We get it. Kobe is an all time great. He's not the goat though as my Celtics whooped that ass by 40+ in a championship game 7

Even a broken clock is right twice a day

Top 5 DOA

Ask any basketball analyst or former player with any common sense and they'll tell you the same thing. Only people who disagree are bitter fans of teams Kobe and the lakers have demolished or insecure Bron stans.
