If it was Lebron playing with Shaq instead of Kobe, how many rings do you think they can win together??
I'll explain the best way i can....
Lebron is a great passer and has great leadership skills, not to mention a BEAST in the paint, but he didn't have the range Kobe had when he entered the league. Also playing with Shaq you had to have BALLLS to deal with his Shaq's ego and Kobe was the perfect fit. On the other hand, Lebron was extremely soft back then, but he had the skills to start coming out of HS.
Kobe and Shaq was the greatest NBA tandem EVER, along with MJ and Pippin.
I think they could have won just as many....i might be wrong.

Carry on...
