Young People: Since 1966 over 45+ years ago - Only Been 4 Stars who’ve 3-peated

[Koolaid_Man]

This is a sacred and highly exclusive club of players... these are hallowed records and absolutely phenomenal and if nothing else if we’re truly basketball fans like we claim to be then surely we’ll put our team pride aside and recognize these great players for this rare accomplishment. This is not a knock against other players who maybe won a le or even went back to back it’s simply to recognize a ‘SPECIAL GROUP’ that 100 yrs from now will be recognized as the founding fathers of sorts.



Baseball has Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron, Football has Joe Montana and Jerry Rice and Basketball will have:


RANKED IN ORDER OF GREATNESS (thus far) :

• 6 Rings - Michael Jordan
• 5 Rings (and counting) Kobe Bryant
• 6 Rings - Scottie Pippen
• 4 Rings - Shaq O’Neal
  

Now depending on your perspective you may have a ton of negative things to say about these particular players but the NBA record books don't lie. In fact I'd venture to say if you're building an All-Time team it wouldn't matter who else you threw in this starting line-up.



Note: Kobe is the youngest player in the history of the league to have 3-peated and he’s aiming to become the youngest in the history to have 3-peated twice.



“This isn’t going to be easy,” Bryant said. “If it was easy to three-peat, you’d see a lot of teams do it in the past.

That’s why so few teams have been able to do it.” - Kobe Bryant

Kool story bro

[jestersmash]

Sure, but the correct order is

1. Michael Jordan (1st option)
2. Shaq (1st option for at least 3)
3. Scottie Pippen (2nd fiddle)
4. Kobe (2nd fiddle on at least 4 of them, 1st option on only 1 if even that)

Steve Kerr > Kobe, tbh. He actually won 4 in a row...

This is about Stars...check the le again...

Then why include coattailers like Pippen and Kobe?

your argument feels like pussy...if Shaq was truly the lone star then how in Hades is it possible for a coat-tailer to run him out of his own city and arena. How does that happen el ?

Shaq has the League and Finals MVP to prove it. You can say the same about Jordan.

You can't say the same for Pips and Kome.

What a stupid fail post.

I wonder why the cutoff is 1966... hmm...

[LnGrrrR]

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the mother- ing-octo-peat.

[rayjayjohnson]

More lakerfan drivel

[ElNono]

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the mother- ing-octo-peat.

think of it as like baseball and the dead ball era. they just ignore things from that period

[LnGrrrR]

Which is why it's such a fail post... since, you know, they mention Babe Ruth. (Who, last time I checked, wasn't playing after 1966.)

And since, ya know, they talk about the sports founding fathers.

I think Koolaid is just trying to threepeat as "Spurstalk's Worst Poster".

LnGrrrR, trashing Laker threads before they even reach page 2. Nasty.

LNGRRR hey sweetie... answer me this...if you take away all the les from the old era from LA and Boston....when there were only 8 I repeat 8 teams in the league...and let's compare les from the Magic/ Bird era onward...Do you know how many les we beat you by....

I've said it before you guys were irrelevant for dam near 25 yrs...you ring once in 08 and now you've found a voice...get real my white ... get real...

[ElNono]

This thread is irrelevant when you include coattailers on it, tbh

[cheguevara]

Then why include coattailers like Pippen and Kobe?

trolled in his own thread

[in2deep]

its a good point. You could replace many players with Pippen and Jordan still wins 6.

same case with replacing Kobe. Shaq still gets his 3.

[Mel_13]

Yet they'll claim 5 les from an even earlier period, won in another city, from the era before the 24 second clock.

And if you take away the time you ed that skank you met at the local bowling alley, you wouldn't have herpes.

But you do. And the Celtics still have more championships than you.

[tlongII]

Didn't Bill Russell 8-peat in 1966?

[Giuseppe]

Yeah, but, nobody saw it live West of St. Louis.

You have weird fantasies. Also, your comebacks suck.
