Who would you rather...

[spursfan09]

Okay this is not really directed to Spur fans because I know what the answer will be.

This is directed to Laker fans and other fans of the NBA.

Who would you rather see win thier 5th ring? Tim or Shaq?

[Culburn369]

Afore I came here I'd a said "Tim." But, you f'ers are real shits. Suns Fandom had warned me of your ilk, but, I had no idea they were this right.

If Daddy were elsewhere it'd be an easy pick, but, I don't want James to get straightened out in the process. I want him the suffer deep anguish and be set upon by Media before he sees the light of day.

I decline to choose.

***Luva!

[KidCongo]

Tim, only because I don't ever want to see James win one, no joke.

LeBron>Kobe

[picc84]

Tim.

[KidCongo]

Spur fab looking for some dick sucking here. No Laker fan would want to see Shaq near the trophy again as it would mean LeBron would have won a ring too. The would be a double whammy they couldn't handle.

[Culburn369]

It's only a single whammy, KING. Daddy never meant no serious harm in the Kobe can't ring/Sans Daddy Conspiracy. Media concocted it, put him up to it, drove it, involved comprehensive fanage in it. Daddy was only p.o'ed at Bryant for rattin' him out in CO..

[spursfan09]

Ahhh, I didn't even factor in Lebron.

Oh and I don't have a dick to suck, so sorry to disappoint you. You know, if your in to that kind of thing.

And to be honest I'd rather Kobe win another one than Lebron.

I'm sorry but I can't stand the Lebron hype. At least Kobe's is warranted.

[dirk4mvp]

Asking Laker fan this question is just as biased as asking spur fan.

[Dex]

Asking Laker fan this question is just as biased as asking spur fan.

So what's your answer?

[Mike D]

Tim.

Class guys are the easiest to root for, and Timmy is definately a class act.

[LakeShow]

Shaquille

He can win his 5th next season when he signs with the Lakers for the minimum and retires.

[TheMACHINE]

Tim....then we can see Shaq beg to be a Laker and Kobe say FUCK no.

[Spursfan092120]

And to be honest I'd rather Kobe win another one than Lebron.

I'm sorry but I can't stand the Lebron hype. At least Kobe's is warranted.
this +100000000

[Allanon]

Obviously, I want the Lakers to get the next one.

But if that doesn't happen, I'd like to see Tim hit 5 or Dirk get his. LeBron's got plenty of time to get his and Shaq can get his 5th with Kobe in a few.

[23LeBronJames23]

why ask lakers when you know almost all the laker fans hate Cavs,LeBron and Shaq

they hate Lebron because hes taking away the show from Kobe. Kobe used to be the best and now Lebron is the best and if LeBron wins a championship EVERYONE will say that LeBron is the best in nba right now. And if Cavs win championship you know that they wont stop just after 1. And thats what scares Lakers fans

[Sportstudi]

And to be honest I'd rather Kobe win another one than Lebron.

I'm sorry but I can't stand the Lebron hype. At least Kobe's is warranted.

This :tu :tu :tu

LeBron's hype is warranted in every way. How many #1 overall picks deliver on the hype they get, much less exceed that hype in every way?

[in2deep]

as a spur fan it's gonna be equally painful to see:
Shaq get his 5th
Kobe get his 5th
KG get his 2nd

[Sportstudi]

LeBron's hype is warranted in every way. How many #1 overall picks deliver on the hype they get, much less exceed that hype in every way?

I don't deny that he delivers, but I just can't stand the hype. Or changing the rules (travel) to favour him even more.

[Sissiborgo]

Duncan! but i really want to se LeBron win one!

[Culburn369]

and if LeBron wins a championship

But if he don't, woe be to him.

tee, hee.

[23LeBronJames23]

But if he don't, woe be to him.

tee, hee.

but u know he will

tee, hee

[Allanon]

My personal opinion is that LeBron had his best chance at a Ring in 2007.

With the current roster and the "win now at all costs" philosophy of the Cavs & Celtics I think it will be several years before he gets another shot at a ring.

Rumor has it that the Cavs would even take Captain Jack's $30 million salary if the rest of the offer is right.

[21_Blessings]

This entire thread is moot since neither will win their 5th. Kobe will retire with at least 6 though.

[Culburn369]

Shaq

[iggypop123]

i would rather see vince carter get his first ring

[pauls931]

Probably Tim. I hate players moving around trying to get a ring.

[ooshmay]

Duncan! but i really want to se LeBron win one!


NOO!!.. seriously tho. i never want to see another team other than the spurs win it. shaq, lebron, kobe.. whatever aslong as its at the spurs.

[SouthTexasRancher]

Tim, only because I don't ever want to see James win one, no joke.


Damn, lakaluva, you the man! This is about the 5th or 6th time I've agreed with you...the world is surely coming to an end! :toast

I would rather see Kobe win another ring before I want that spoiled brat Lebron, winning one. Kobe finally won a ring without Shaq but, Lebron had to twist the Cavs mgt. collective arms to go get Shaq so he would have a chance at his first ring. And it won't happen this year either. Boston will represent the East as long as they stay healthy. The Spurs, Lakers and Celtics are loaded and all 3 understand what it takes. Lebron doesn't...it is all about him!

[pauls931]

I think Stern is praying for Cleveland to win so Lebron can take Kobe's place as the NBA cash cow.

[SouthTexasRancher]

You've got that right. Stern is fawning all over his little king, Lebron. I hope he never wins a ring.


BTW, I would hope Nash would win several rings before Lebron. Nobody in the league plays harder than Nash. Too bad he hasn't had the right mix of players/coaches to have won one, yet. Hopefully before he retires he'll get one.

[SouthTexasRancher]

This entire thread is moot since neither will win their 5th. Kobe will retire with at least 6 though.


Yeah, right! I don't think so! But, since we're now talking about 6 rings...it'll be Timmy D...!

[Chuck Norris Joke]

The Great Wall of China was originally created to keep Chuck Norris out. It failed miserably.

[DPG21920]

I don't get the Lebron hate. He is a sick, sick basketball player. If he acted like KG, I can see hating him, but he doesn't.

[dirk4mvp]

I don't get it either. It's pretty retarded.

[spursfan09]

I don't "hate" lebron. Just waiting around for him to do something. I mean didn't they have the best record last year? Didn't they look like they were on a tear and going to win it? What happened? Media shoves him in our faces like they do with Kobe, but at least Kobe has done something like win 4 championships. Maybe this year will the year Lebron does something. Who knows?

Dumbest reasoning I've ever heard. Putting up 35, 9, and 7 in the playoffs is doing something. Replace him with anyone last year and they aren't as good and don't have that good of a record. How many people could drag that cast to the CF's? Did you see him in the Magic series last year?

You never know. You have to have the talent, no doubt. But, you still have to have a lot of things go your way, especially NO injuries. I think just about everyone around the league would like to see Nash get a ring. Sort of like John Stockton. You hate to see a guy play that hard for that long only to retire without the championship. There could be a fair amount of trading going on around the All Star break if these summer moves are not working out for the current contenders.

He should totally wear it out around the town, then.

Are fans also creating the little skits he comes up with before games??

The fact that you know they practice those things beforehand is embarrassing to say the least. I'd be embarrassed if Tony lined up all the scrubs and pretended to take family photos before a playoff game.

I can imagine what it's like to live in Cleveland though...so i understand if you don't feel the same way.

the lebron hate is pretty unjustified. so what if lebron gets a bunch of media attention? the last time i checked, the NBA is a form of entertainment. it's not like lebron isn't one of the top players either. if i could choose right now one player to build a team around, it would be james. he doesn't hog the ball and gets his teammates involved. and think about it, lebron never:

- raped a girl
- threw a teammate under a bus after getting caught to create a diversion
- feuded with teammates
- publicly asked to be traded
- threw more teammates under the bus for wanting jason kidd
- gave up during the seventh game of a playoff series
- prematurely taunted the crowd with a big balls dance shortly before mason did this

(As a Spurs fan) I wouldn't mind too much Shaq winning another one if for some reason Spurs wouldn't win this year.

My problem is with Lebron. I hope he never wins a ring and unfortunately Shaq falls in the same basket this year.

[Sportstudi]

I don't get the Lebron hate. He is a sick, sick basketball player. If he acted like KG, I can see hating him, but he doesn't.

I don't hate LeBron. Agreed, he's damn sick basketball player. I just can't stand the media hype (like there aren't any other good players around) and the fact Stern stroking LeBron's nuts.

[Muser]

Damn people are stupid, is LeBron the one hyping himself up? No, it's the Media so why don't you just hate them? By the end of his career he may well be in the top 10 players of all time, I for one will count myself lucky being able to watch someone so good.

I like LeBron's skills.
I like his powder toss to start games
I like the little mini-celebrations/chest bumps/high-fives/etc

I don't like that Chosen1 tattoo, but whatever

But I really hated those group pictures last year, got damn that shit was irritating. Ok, pre-game, whatever. It wasn't so bad pre-game; but they actually did it to celebrate their shots in-game too.

I hate Ray Allen but I have to agree with him that they needed to get blown out the next time.

That's exactly my opinion. :tu (The rest of your post as well :toast). LBJ is a damn good player, hands down.

You have to admit though that for instance his "Chosen One" tattoo supports somehow that hype. If a player is so convinced about himself...

And I don't like Stern how he's making sheep's eyes at LeBron just because he's the cash cow.

[Thunder Dan]

I think it's funny how some people this Lebron's window to win a ring is closing......dude is 24


The Lakers fans hating Lebron is the classic, love him if he plays on your team, hate him if he doesn't. They want Kobe to have all the attention and they can't stand that someone might be better than him. They pick Lebron apart just to nit pick, but if he was a Laker these same posters would be slobbing his knob as the best player to ever live. You really going to hate on him for a Chose 1 tattoo? Who's to say he isn't? Dude has set tons of records and won a MVP at 24 years old. At 19 he was an All Star. The guy is a phenom whether he has a ring or not is irrelevant at this point in his career. If Damon Jones had that tattoo I could see not liking it, but it's not a problem with Lebron having it when Amare is walking around with a Black Jesus tattoo and Deshawn Stevenson has a 5 Dollar Bill on his neck.

[balli]

Yeah, lol at not liking any professional athlete over a fucking tattoo.

Tattoos suck in general, but hell, people get 'em and they're usually shitty, it happens. No need to hate a man because of it.

Let me preface this by saying I think Lebron is the best player in the league.

But dragging that cast to the CF's? The Pistons and the Hawks would have been the 11th and 10th seeds in the west, and the Hawks had injuries to their stars to boot. Beating Detroit and injured Atlanta is not impressive in the slightest...quite a few people could have dragged the Cavs past those teams. I thought it was crazy people were speculating if they would sweep their way to the title after the first two rounds, when the teams they beat were basically lottery clubs.

Lebrons performance vs Orlando was impressive. Beating pathetic east teams every year only to get wiped out by the first quality team they face is not. Again, best player in the L but lets not act like Cleveland was overcoming adversity.

The Haws and Pistons aren't great, but they're good enough to win 1 playoff game. The fact that LeBron swept them with Mo freakin Williams as his second best player is phenomenal.

I think that Big Balls dance is great. Sam Cassell was the master of it.

I like in-game celebrations. High Fives, Jordan shaking his head, Hip bumps, Dikembe's finger wag, etc...all cool in the moment.

But when you drag half the team out for a 10 second photo-op, that's a bit much and seems contrived.

But hey, that's just my opinion, some people might like that stuff.

The Haws and Pistons aren't great, but they're good enough to win 1 playoff game. The fact that LeBron swept them with Mo freakin Williams as his second best player is phenomenal.

Maybe, maybe not. But he didnt say Lebron was great for sweeping those teams, he said how many people could "drag" the Cavs past them. As if it would have taken Michael Jordan to get by two lottery teams both dealing with major injuries.

Sorry, but I just don't think its all that phenomenal.

Kobe doesnt have to convince anyone he is the one of the greatest. He doesnt have to have a CHOSEN1 tattoo...he doesnt have to wear his LBJ MVP shirt. Thats the difference between the two.

the lebron hate is pretty unjustified. So what if lebron gets a bunch of media attention? The last time i checked, the nba is a form of entertainment. It's not like lebron isn't one of the top players either. If i could choose right now one player to build a team around, it would be james. He doesn't hog the ball and gets his teammates involved. And think about it, lebron never:

- raped a girl
- threw a teammate under a bus after getting caught to create a diversion
- feuded with teammates
- publicly asked to be traded
- threw more teammates under the bus for wanting jason kidd
- gave up during the seventh game of a playoff series
- prematurely taunted the crowd with a big balls dance shortly before mason did this

Tim Duncan. I'm not a huge Duncan fan, but I definitely and completely respect what he's done in the league and how he's done it. I don't dislike Shaq though. I think he can be quite entertaining and a lot of the crap that he spits is either him trying to entertain or him being overly sensitive and trying to overcompensate with humor. But, there's no way of getting around that he's acted like a jackass plenty of times and he can be a problem in the locker room and has at times in his career been lazy and overweight where he could have easily dominated 20 times more than he did, which is pretty crazy to think.

Yes, Tim Duncan isn't the flashiest baller. He doesn't have the sexiest game. But, I still give a great amount of credit for his excellence combined with his unselfishness and professionalism. Not one of my favorite players in the league, but Duncan is certainly one of the players I respect most, and I think he deserves all the praise and accolades he can get because he earns it.

how is winning a championship related to the rest of my list? it's certainly not the equivalent of rape or attention whoring by publicly demanding to be traded. think please, lakerfan.

Tim. No doubt. Spurs never bothered me. Seemed like nice guys.
Shaq though. Just a mouth breathing dick.
