Would Kobe have not missed the playoffs with Duncan leading him?

[WeNeedLength]

It's a legit question. Duncan has led his team to the playoffs every single year he has been in the league. Could he have done the same with Bryant?

[Giuseppe]

Duncan never repeated though.

[VBM]

Duncan never repeated though.

Tis true, though Duncan never lost when he got there.

[Giuseppe]

True, but:::

Kobe: 5

Duncan: 4

[VBM]

As long as it's not

Shaq: 5

Duncan: 4

All will be right in the world

[Giuseppe]

I'm satisfied at:::

Kobe: 5

Duncan: 4

[JamStone]

Yes. The Lakers would have made the 2005 playoffs with Duncan on that team.

[cheguevara]

Duncan would have lead the lakers to multiple championships without asterisks and collusions, tbh

[Giuseppe]

^Perhaps, Che, but, Duncan has yet to repeat.

Kobe has repeated 3 times.

[poop]

^Perhaps, Che, but, Duncan has yet to repeat.

Kobe has repeated with a prime shaq on his team and when gifted with a prime gasol 3 times.

fixed

[Giuseppe]

No. Kobe has repeated 3 times. Duncan is bereft in repeating.

[Zelophehad]

Yes. The Lakers would have made the 2005 playoffs with Duncan on that team.

Good work, Captain Obvious.

Nicely done.

All Mul roll can do is come back with her usual parrot schztick.

[easy7]

Kobe has repeated 3 times.

I don't think they are talking about repeat sex offenders Cully.

[Giuseppe]

[WeNeedLength]

Everyone's got to admit the thread le is true....? It was a got damn rhetorical question you Laker s...

[Giuseppe]

That's why Duncan's lack of back-to-back is so commanding.

It's a fact in this world. Can't be denied.

LOL trying to compare a tiny market franchise with zero media appeal and no free agents to speak of with no-name 'stars' having to always go against the grain to franchises stocked top to bottom with loaded teams favored by the media as well as the league itself LOL having to try to 'beat out' our tiny little team hahahahhahahahahhaha

That's talk. Excuses. Mumbo/Jumbo.

When it was 4-3 Duncan you had the con. Good for you. But, you ain't got it no more. With 5-4 came the automatic stipulation of Duncan's failure to repeat. It was a double whammy for ya's.

And you're gonna answer for it. And I'm gonna administer the proverbials.

And that's just the way it's gonna be.

keep pretending your team hasnt been ridiculously privileged almost its whole existence.

so...imagine in '08 you guys Dont get Gasol, and the Spurs land Dwayne Wade for Ime Udoka.

how do you like your '08 team's chances minus gasol, vs an '08 Spurs with duncan/parker/ginobili/Wade???





yeah, thats pretty much how the rest of the league feels.

[WeNeedLength]

That's why Memphis's lack of not giving a free gift to a big market team, AKA collusion, is so commanding.

It's a fact in this world. Can't be denied.

fify. You should stop posting or your wife will catch you and hit your hands with a stiff ruler to let you know who wears the pants in the relationship.

I don't do [[[supposings]]]. I do events. I take the good and I immerse myself in it, cuz I know how the bad feels. When I lose I don't make excuses. I just lose and admit it.

She won't be back till tomorrow. I'm safe till then.

its super easy being a Lakers 'fan', you automatically know your team isnt going to go more than a few seasons without *miraculously* landing some Superstars and being super stacked.
