FWIW, this thread was created before he surpassed big O.
Feel better now?
Yeah. the Sp*rs and the Sp*rs fans!!!
Players in the poll: 5 rings
Spurs franchise: 4 rings
Sure. Did you vote yet?
90 percent of the so-called Laker fans here in the NBA forum will jump off the bandwagon after Kobe retires. Book it.
Fisher. If it wasn't for those fantastic hospitals in reach of Kobe he wouldn't of won .
man has a point
After last year's playoffs, I can no longer talk about Kobe's rings.
The obvious answer is Robert Horry, and I'm not saying that because I'm a Suns fan. He hit some clutch shots in some big games, but he wasn't the reason any of his teams reached those big games in the first place.
True
But to be fair, Horry could have been an all-star if he kept playing as a SF
Suns, Lakers and later Spurs used him as a PF, but as a SF he had great potential
Bryant is the luckiest because for whatever reason, he gets a completely inordinate amount of credit for those three les which Shaquille won practically by himself.
Have you guys ever looked up the stats Shaquille put up during the playoffs during that three-peat run? It's sick. Those were almost Wilt Chamberlain type numbers. I don't know what the MVP voting looked like for those Finals, butI'd be shocked if they were not all unanimous.
And even though he deserves some credit for the one in 2009, Bryant being gifted the MVP of last year's Final was a total travesty. He had a couple of decent games, but had the Lakers lost Game 7 (otherwise known as "Game 6-24"), Bryant's "legacy" would include having bricked his way out of a le. And he did this in a game where the Celtics were without their starting center and toughest interior defender. Gee, do you think a decent strategy might be to feed the post? I guess it didn't seem like a good strategy to Bryant.
In my opinion, Gasol deserved the MVP of last year's Final, and perhaps in 2009 as well. So to me, Bryant has "led his team" to maybe one le, but certainly not two, and most definitely not five.
Kobe: 5
Duncan: 4
come ta pappy!
Ya, For me it was a tossup with Kerr and Horry, maybe Fisher a 3rd. All of them made plays. I'd probably go with Kerr despite hitting that game winner from the MJ pass. Maybe he did more, but that's all I remember.
There's probably a game 7 between Spurs - Mavs in 2003 if Kerr doesn't go ape in game 6. But I think Horry offered more clutch shooting and more versatility on the defensive end.
Our solace rests at:::
Kobe: 5
Duncan: 4
Bryant was chasin' Daddy. Me too. Till I came here.
tee, hee.
