Shaq: I Agree With What T-Mac Said. Probably Get A Lot Of Flak, But I Always Said Myself, I , I Think I Could've Got 3 In A Row With T-Mac.

[Sccit]

SHAQ ALSO SAID HE WINS 7 OR 8 IF HE STUCK WITH KOBE

ALSO

PHIL JACKSON, REGARDING TRACY MCGRADY:

"WHENEVER T-MAC WAS ASKED TO PLAY DEFENSE, HIS BACK STARTED HURTING."

 

[DraymondT]

TMac mentality was always questionable. You need a certain one to 3peat. He'd win 1 wit Shaq the one in 2000 Kobe wasn't really in his prime yet but no way he 3peat I can easily see TMac bein satisfied wit a title and fallin off or not puttin in as much work in the runback. Would he get hungrier and reach a new peak after a title like Kobe did in 01 when he was playin as good as anyone in the world those playoffs? fukk nah.

And as others have said there the health wit TMac. Actually goin back to 2000.... We never even seen TMac have a playoff run goin more than 1 series or more than 7 games. Considerin the injuries he kept havin its no guarantee he even makes it healthy a full playoff run, 4 whole series. We never seen it so assumin he can pull a 3peat some retarded fantasy.

Shaq saying he would've won rings with T-Mac / Steph = Yep agreed

People saying Kobe would've won with Duncan = "Kobe stans in shambles"

The lengths people go to, to be a hater

Yeah but kobe would be playing sidekick with duncan as well.

 

[Sk3ptical]

Kobe winning with Pau after Shaq is like if Kyrie won with Siakam after Lebron and nikkas saying "well he had Siakam"

nikkas comparing that bum siakam with a nba hall of famer pau gasol.

Kobe stans in shambles.

 

[MikelArteta]

Wasn't saying this when Kobe was alive

 

[McPiff]

bum ass nikkas need to let bean rest in peace

 

[Controversy]

i can't even keep track of your argument. it's obtuse. yeah bean did. but duncan won 2 MVPS and 2 finals MVP's in the decade and overall won the same amount of titles in less seasons.

Duncan never had any season ending injuries...does that count?

Duncan played in 46 more games in his career

Kob should've won 3 MVPs in the 2000s but the media forced a narrative on team success...a narrative they eventually abandoned with Russell Westbrook

A guy who is all nba every yr of the decade, and went 4-1 against Timmy in the offs is not better? That just doesn't add up.

 

[Controversy]

2000-01 - Lakers beat the Spurs in the WCF when Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili weren't even in the league.
2001-02 - Lakers beat the Spurs in the Semifinals when Tony Parker was a rookie. Manu Ginobili wasn't in the league.
2002-03 - Spurs beat the Lakers in the Semifinals when Tony Parker was in his 2nd year and Manu Ginobili was a rookie playing 20 mins per game.

Just off the first 2 seasons above, you can eliminate 8 wins from that 8-18 to bring it to 8-10.

What type of shyt is this?

8-18!

Except y’all Kobe Stans told us that players’ opinions hold more weight than what the fans believe, so it doesn’t matter what “people” say, it only matters what Shaq said.

Who the fukk are you to Shaq? Where’s the hate? I only see cats following the rules that y’all put in place. What’s the matter, don’t like those rules anymore?

 

[SunZoo]

Yeah but kobe would be playing sidekick with duncan as well.

Nah he and Duncan would have had a way different dynamic. Shaq won a scoring title, Kobe would have had to take even more of the scoring load.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

What a dumb ass post

What's "dumb" about it.... Use your words next time.

Duncan hurt his knee in 2000 and didn't get a chance to defend his title

 

[Controversy]

Duncan hurt his knee in 2000 and didn't get a chance to defend his title

Let's be candid about 2000

The Lakers were the best team, 67 wins

The Blazers were the 2nd best team, 59 wins

The 2000 Spurs were not as good as the 99 Spurs and were not getting past Portland or LAL

The 01 Spurs had a chance to redeem themselves and the series was a mismatch

 

[Trojan 24]

What type of shyt is this?

8-18!

That 2001 matchup was said to be the real finals and had people saying the Lakers only won in 2000 because Timmy got hurt. David Robinson was still a force, but now that series don't count

 

[NYC Rebel]

Shaq said this years back too.
