Gasol not Kobe is the real MVP of the Lakers

[LnGrrrR]

It's hard to maintain a "soft" label when you're grabbing twenty rebounds a game.

true story brah. gasol is legit

[MiamiHeat]

So can Magic not.

So can Jerry West not.

So can Parker not.

So can Pierce and Allen not.

It isn't rocket science that most championship teams (except for Jordan's champ teams) needed great and skilled big men to go over the hump.

Cry me a river.

but Jordan can.

[Venti Quattro]

but Jordan can.

Please re-read my exception enclosed in parenthesis

[Mavs_man_41]

but Jordan can.

miamiheat workin on gettin his cool points back up

[Allanon]

You guys are right.

Jordan didn't need an All Star Center to win rings; he needed one of the 50 Greatest NBA Players of all time.

exactly.

[chubster]

You're seriously disrespecting prime Horace Grant and Dennis Rodman.

[Venti Quattro]

You're seriously disrespecting prime Horace Grant and Dennis Rodman.

They're great, yes, but they are role players and not really in the 1-2 punch combo of those Bulls championship teams.

They'll always be remembered for Jordan and Pippen.

[MiamiHeat]

You're seriously disrespecting prime Horace Grant and Dennis Rodman.

Dennis Rodman only made the All-star team twice, and it was 4 years before he joined the Bulls. He never made one in a Bulls uniform.

and Horace Grant only made the All-Star team once, and it wasn't with MJ.

[MiamiHeat]

I can say the same type of disrespect for Lamar Odom.

Oh, I know that. I'm just responding to posters who make it seems that the Bulls big men were crap.

[MiamiHeat]

They were crap.

Rodman had the worst offensive game in the nba, as bad as Ben Wallace.

He was an offensive liability. His only skill was rebound, some defense, and hustle.


Luc Longley? LOL WHITE CENTER

[Venti Quattro]

He was an offensive liability. His only skill was rebound, some defense, and hustle.

Pissin off and being always beaten up by Frank Brickowski is a skill too

[chubster]

and Horace Grant only made the All-Star team once, and it wasn't with MJ.

Like I said, serious disrespect. What do you have against Horace Grant and Denis Rodman?
Why do they have to be all stars anyway? What does that prove?

[chubster]

I can say the same type of disrespect for Lamar Odom.

What disrespect?

[TheMACHINE]

Kobe can't win without All-Star big men.

Shaq cant win without a hall of famer by his side. Kobe can.

[Rogue]

it's quite common for foreign dumbasses to think more highly of other foreign dumbasses than they rightfully should. and when i say "foreign dumbass," i'm not talking about Pau Gasol but Kobme Bryant who was born in Italy.

[TheMACHINE]

the lakers sucked in modern day nba before gasol came along. fact

Before Bynum got injured that year, what place was the Lakers in the west?

[MiamiHeat]

Shaq cant win without a hall of famer by his side. Kobe can.

Pau Gasol will go to the Hall of fame now

He has a ring, and his numbers speak for themselves. By the end of his career, he is going to be HoF material.

so fail.

[TheMACHINE]

but Jordan can.

Jordan needed another hall of famer by his side. Kobe just did it without one.

try again.

[Venti Quattro]

Before Bynum got injured that year, what place was the Lakers in the west?

We started plummeting games after he was gone and before Gasol landed into us lol

[Culburn369]

Pau Gasol will go to the Hall of fame now

He has a ring, and his numbers speak for themselves. By the end of his career, he is going to be HoF material.

so fail.

Heat, runnin' as fast as he can.

oh ok..cuz of Kobe he is a hall of famer...good to know

try again.

[MiamiHeat]

Before Bynum got injured that year, what place was the Lakers in the west?

The Suns were #1ranked in the Western conference for a few years

I guess they shoulda just been handed the championship?

LOL

P.S. The Lakers being in the top spot for a little piece of the season is no accomplishment. Let me know the results at the end of the season.

and even then, LOL SUNS, LOL MAVS with #1 record in 2007, LOL


Lakers woulda been a first round exit, like always
