This is how you know that ESPN article on Kobe was a hitpiece

But the league has changed around Bryant, and swiftly. The movement of people and the ball, 3s, rim attacks, coordinated defensive effort and generating open shots for teammates are what's winning now. Subsuming ego and glorifying teammates is a winning NBA strategy, and it's what D'Antoni and Nash attempted to bring to the Lakers.

so lemme get this straight. Mike Dantoni and Steve Nash were gonna come to LA and teach Kobe how to win. two dudes who never even been to the finals let alone with one were gonna come and "bring" a winning strategy to Kobe....a fukkin 5 time champion.

you gotta be fukkin kiddin me. ESPN should delete that sentence now if they want anyone to take anything else they said seriously.

what does that have to do with what I posted? Kobe's rings now don't count cause he ain't win finals MVP?

does that mean Shaq only has 3 rings not 4?
