Can you believe that? Kobe nearly ended his career carrying these bums and they made it to the playoffs without him. :mindblown:

When the Lakers clinched their playoff berth this season...was Kobe playing?





































Now shut up. The whole Summer nicca.

Breh, Pau SUCKED in the 2010 - 2011 regular season ans sucked even more in the playoffs. Phil physically put hands on this dude, that says it all. Phil is one of the calmest motherfukkers on the planet!!!

Phil Jackson Slaps Pau Gasol(For Being Soft) As The Lakers Fall Behind 3-0 To The Mavericks 5-6-2011 - YouTube

When has anybody seen Phil that upset at a player?!

I'll never forgive Mitch for not trading this dumb fakkit. I would have accepted ANYTHING for him. I mean ANYTHING because his soft ass behavior infected the squad. Now what? He's in the last year of his contract, what is his worth? nothing. Especially considering they have a 2014 plan so they're gonna let expire. I don't give a shyt that he was almost gone for CP3, we could of had the Houston package for him.

@GreatestLaker, I need your backing on this.

Was Pau not trash in the 2008 Finals? Was he not getting abused by Carl Landry against Houston in the 2009 2nd round playoffs? Was he not pathetic on the road against Boston in 2010? Did we not(Laker fans) say he was done in the 2011 playoffs when he was getting abused by Carl Landry again? So why this revisionist history by Kobe haters that Pau carried this nikka?

Re-read what you wrote and it tells you how valuable Pau was to the team. When Pau was off, the Lakers were either on the brink of elimination or they were absolutely getting their shyt pushed in.

Never said he wasn't valuable. I was referring to the posts that Kobe won because of Pau which is false. Pau was a great 2nd option during our run but he is VASTLY overrated.

No player getting their culo blasted in two different series by Carl Landry is underrated. :pachaha:

This is bizzaro world! It's like people are blacking out the series against the Hornets and the Mavericks and did the same thing against Denver and OKC. Pau was downright horrible the last 3 or 4 seasons. During the Hornets series, he was demoted to 3rd option behind Bynum, that's how fukking terrible he was!

Dwight was always better.

Garnett was better until he injured his knee in 09.

Dwight and Garnett were considered top 5ish players and Gasol wasn't even in people's top 15 list before the Lakers trade.

Pau was overrated even during the title years. Dude was soft and was a no show in a lot of games.

Pau was in the 10-15 range during 09 and 10. Never was the best.

Howard's never been better, Gasol proved that in those Finals :umad:

And Garnett's not one to be throwin' stones from that glass house :umad:

Gasol's always been the more complete player. Sure, Garnett's a wizard on D, but Gasol's no slouch there either, and when u add Gasol's offensive repertoire, it's a wrap. Has missed the playoffs less in his career, and has more championships. :umad:

No one is talking about those years though. When Pau wasn't elite anymore, Kobe wasnt good enough to take the team very far.

That's the thing you're missing, he was BEYOND "not elite", he wasn't even serviceable. It's like he fell off a fukkin cliff! If he was at least AVERAGE, it would have helped.

I'm not even arguing that, I know Pau was garbage from the 2011 playoffs forward. But when people say Pau carried Kobe to two rings, I don't see what his 2011 performance has to do with that.

I see what you're saying. So just for clarification, you agree with the sentiment that Pau "carried" Kobe? The same Pau that didn't even win a playoff game until he got with Kobe.

Are we realy still on this Pau shyt?! Pau is p*ssy! And he has been so since 2010 - 2011.

:ufdup: Gasol was on POINT that year, and u know GOOD AND DAMN WELL Gasol was BALLIN' while Bryant was injured the followin' season. He was doin' everything: defense, scoring, rebounding, passing as good as u'd ever seen a big man. :aicmon: Sure, he blew aganist Dallas, but guess what? so did Kobe :pachaha: NOBODY was stoppin' Dallas that year, that defense was just :whew:, u saw what it did to LeBron, and Nowitzki was on a mission.

Kobes titles were with a dominant Shaq and the combo of Gasol and Bynum

Bron one two titles with no big man a :wrist: Bosh and a :flabbynsick: Wade

He did everything to get his team those titles and Kobe snitched on the man who's back he rode to his first 3 titles

Bron is a better player, person, father and black man than Kobe

Kobe in 2001 playoffs as a "sidekick"

29ppg on 47%, 7 rebs, 6 asst, 1.6 stl

LeBron in 2013 playoffs as "the man"

25ppg on 49%, 8 rebs, 7 asst, 1.8 stl
