Surprised there are so many old folks on there.

Also, Lebron should be between 20-25.
Larry Johnson was great back in the day and should be above Franchise, at the very least.

Got so bad right before Duncan came on board you fellows were booing him mercilessly. Calling him "Chicken of the Sea" - "The Little Mermaid" - "The Titanic"

Your fanbase should be ashamed.

Who did?

Did "they" rag on him like they did to Tragic Johnson?
How about treating him like the Lakers fanbase did to Kobe after the Faber incident?
How about turning their backs on a true legend like Shaquille O'Neal to prop up Kobe?
How about throwing the all time scoring leader Kareem under the bus without any coaching jobs for decades?
How about making fun of Elgin Baylor when he carried that team year after year?
How about throwing out Jerry West like garbage after all he did to the franchise?

How about throwing Pau under the bus after leading in W/S for two rings?

Disgraceful fan base and franchise

You are not even trying with your trolling anymore, throwing up your hands in defeat the second you have been challenged.

You can't even go on and on about tangents and move your targets and creating fairy tale stories then presenting them as facts and taking one instance and make it sound like a common occurrence anymore.

In the first sign of challenge, you just throw up your hands and admit defeat, like your favourite teams.

He couldn't even win a single playoff game till Kobe held his hand.

Again, another one.

You have really fallen off your game, it's worse than Kevin Johnson post injury, even though your game was never as explosive or breath-taking as Kevin Johnson at his peak.

And Kobe couldn't make the postseason once he was unceremoniously booed out of LA

Can't help it you didn't notice Shaq, Magic, Kareem, and Baylor. But then again, you guys aren't really Laker fans.

Shaq was with the Magic his rookie year.

ha, ha. I. just busted Amb's hole.

[Mitch]

The only rookie to win the FMVP and ROY is missing

nvm, always forget magic didn't win it that year

[ambchang]

Shaq was with the Magic his rookie year.

Never said he did. But he is a laker legend that got thrown under the bus by laker fans which was the point.

A) you didn't do it.
B) he didn't do it.

Who turned this into a Kobe thread?

Dale started trashing Spursfan. We started trashing the Lakers franchise. Dale went to Kob

And yeah, I agree, rookie benchwarmers shouldn't be discussed in RoY threads

My bad. I thought this was about ROY seasons and not the time spent on other teams.

The thread was but the response was about throwing your own legends under the bus.

Was kinda expecting to see Tyrekes 20-5-5 rookie season on the list

Admiral was a 24 year old rookie, his soft ass was getting his shyt pushed in by broken down Sabonis when he was the best player in college. Hakeem at 23 was sonning Kareem in the playoffs.

25. Steve Francis :lol


Where is Tyreke Evans? Dude was putting up Oscar Robertson numbers during his rookie season just like Francis.:lol

[RsxPiimp]

What a crap list :lol

Damon Stoudemire , Iverson and Mark Jackson all deserve to be in that list.

Jordan was not better than Kareem or Duncan as a rookie. No way.

Doesn't anybody remember Magic Johnson's rookie season?!?!?!

I know, shitstorm. He deserved it.

[HemisfairArena]

Surprised LeBron and Durant aren't on the list,,,,both hit 20 pts/gm average in their rook years.

[Galileo]

Jordan was not better than Kareem or Duncan as a rookie. No way.

And Bellany third is a joke. He had great stats but his team won less than 20 games in the runNgun era.
