What’s that? A mention in casual passing out of maybe 15 comments in this thread?

You are not serious people.
I was pointing out how you were singling out Kobe "Stans" for doing what "Stans" of other players do. Especially in that instance, for what Bron Stans do.

Everyone talking basketball in here and instead of talking ball you trying to cosplay as some online pro black? Yet wasnt you going in on Kyrie like cacs were for simply posting a movie that Amazon was selling? You was.

And I've never heard a Spurs fan argue for days about Tim Duncan being replaceable with KG. I've never heard a Warriors fan say that even someone like Draymond or Klay was replaceable with some lesser player. Yet you've been making the argument that TMac, who collapsed in the playoffs time after time, could replace Kobe who was the closer for all 5 of the Laker's last 6 rings? What else you think people are gonna see in that other than you're either a laker fan that doesn't like Kobe (on court) or you're not a Laker fan altogether?


Facts. Dude is a huge fraud. :unimpressed:

You don't like the way James Harden played like some don't like the way (in total not just offense)TMac played. :yeshrug:

Harden who in Houston had a 64% winning percentage in the west and also made it out the first round 5 times is being put below TMac who did what exactly? James did all that AND won MVP and it's laughable to put him close to Wade. TMac did nothing of the sort and you try to place him at eye level with Kobe?

:russell:
That shyt he did in Houston was all empty calories

That shyt was McDonalds for dinner nikka none a that shyt he did there had any nutritional value :hhh:

None a that shyt was real. Kobe said that nobody can win championships playing like that and he was 100% correct. That MVP he got was pure popcorn, please dog:scust:

The NBA MVP is a narrative award the media made mistakes all the time with who they voted for to win

Stop using that bytch ass nikka in your arguments

He was not fukkin with D Wade and he wasn't as good as T Mac in his prime in Orlando

:scust:

Yes. Going in on Kyrie co-signing Alex Jones a d dusty Israelite. Im quite fine with that.

@10bandz dikkriding you isnt a surprise as his track record for c00ning is consistent.

He’ll overlook your next coli ban, Im sure.

And none of those other players were as dominant as Shaq. Who didnt know that it was a matter of time before Shaq was to get rings before we ever heard of Kobe? Took an expansion team to championship contenders. Played so dominant the league implemented zone to stop him. All of a sudden, other names you mention are his peers impact wise? No…they werent. It isnt sacrilegious to think another great wing player along shaq and Phil would lead to ships. But yall insist on making Shaq’s ships a “kobe only” thing in your cult like obsession.

There’s nothing left to do but troll you cultists.
Kobe was a great player. Arguably the second most beloved/iconic athlete of the century after Iverson.

But he was not as great as Jordan or Lebron. He benefitted tremendously from Shaq and Pau.

And it absolutely kills you bashyt lunatics to admit it.

Don’t accuse me of hating when I’m trying to spread love.
It’s the Brooklyn way.
😘
How did he benefit from Pau, when Pau never won a single playoff game as the guy? Not 1. He was 0-12 or 0-16...whichever it was. He wasn't getting 1 W. Name one other star player that didn't get a single W in the playoffs. He's a complimentary piece.

You completely proved his point. A guy who made 4 all nba teams while sharing his position with Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Amare Stoudemire, Blake Griffin, and Zach Randolph who was a guy you could count on for 19-20 points and 10-11 rebounds with damn good passing and defense made a world of difference. The previous 3 seasons for the lakers went as follows:


34 wins no playoffs
Blew a 3-1 lead in the first round after a barely .500 season
Out in the first round 4-1 after a barely .500 season


A complimentary piece is is someone like Robert Horry, Rick Fox, Tayshaun Prince, Jamal Crawford or someone of that nature. A six time all star who made the hall of fame is way more than just a complimentary piece and if you don’t think Kobe benefitted from playing next to him you should probably schedule a CAT scan.

No he didn’t prove his point you’re just dumb. Pau Gasol was not relevant in the NBA whatsoever without Kobe Bryant. There are a lot of guys who put up 20 and 10 and are irrelevant. People know the difference. Victor Wemebyana putting up 20 and 10 how he does is nothing like what Pau Gasol was doing. He is as never a clear number 1 option. He was a second option on a championship team that had all of his shooting percentages skyrocket while being next to Kobe Bryant. In every physical series the Lakers played, he wilted and showed why he couldn’t be a number 1 option. In real time - some Lakers fans were saying we would be better with Marc given how soft Pau was playing. Pau was a very skilled big man and perfect compliment to Kobe and for the triangle but he’s a HOFer solely because he got to play with Kobe Bryant. Take that away and there’s not much separating him career-wise from a bunch of guys who had some good seasons.

Don’t be emotional.

We are all quite happy to admit Jordan, Bron, Tim, Magic, every great star benefitted from good teammates.

Only Kobe Stans whine that he was without help when he had to carry Smush and Kwame.

And only Kobe Stans sit here with a straight face and say Odom and Pau weren’t shyt until they got to play with their Dear Leader Kobe.

There’s a post on one of these threads this week that said it was Kobe who kickstarted the Lakers dynasty…as if Shaq leaving Orlando for LA wasn’t a seismic shift in the NBA landscape.

You guys complain about being trolled only to say the wildest irrational shyt out of the other corner of your mouths.

Reply to my posts, not what others posted. I said none of which you typed. Others have. You just lack intelligent debating skills. Stan this, Stan that, is what comes out of your mouth whenever you dont agree. Keep trolling them others, act like I don’t exist.

Pau had like 30/10/5 his first playoff game with the Lakers. I'll never forget it

I knew it was a wrap after that

Great player
The league knew once Kobe got Pau it was over. Perfect compliment to the “polished” number 24 Kobe. They helped each other, Kobe gave Pau the heart he always lacked, Pau gave Kobe floor spacing and trust. 3 peat material.

Yo you Kobe ass nikkas in here have zero critical thinking skills

Like at all

The fukk was Kobe winning after Shaq left and before Pau??

Was Kobe winning at all during this time?

No he wasn't he was scoring mad points cause he was a fukkin nut, blaming everyone else for why he was losing and going on the radio and asking to be traded
