lol Kobe 0 ithout Shaq and Pau
Jordan didn't need all-star bigs
Magic and Kobe![]()
He would only have the * 99 ring of which Phil Jackson already is on record as saying is a fluke.
Let me put this in context for you...we like to say Kobe 5 and Duncan 4 and it's true. However, Duncan won his les playing with 3 players that were great at their positions. Namely - Robinson, Parker, Manu.... Kobe's won with different teams with 1 player great ( Shaq) at his position and 1 player good (Pau) at his position.
If you take Manu and Parker away from Shimmy and Take Snaq away from Kobe...Leave them both with a good big man. Shimmy keeps Robinson and Kobe keeps Pau then no matter how you slice it...it's still
Kobe 2
Duncan 1
enjoy your weekend fellas.![]()

...though Gasol couldn't win a single playoff game until Kobe took him in and Kobe won 2 without Daddy.
Though Kobe couldn't get out of the 1st round until Gasol took him in and Pau won 2...
Though Gasol couldn't win a single playoff game till Kobe took him in & Kobe won 2 without Daddy.
Though Kobe was given the keys to the franchise and couldn't get out of the 1st round until Pau took him and won 2
Though Gasol couldn't win a single playoff game till Kobe took him in and Kobe won two without Daddy. & Daddy only won 1 without Kobe, &:::
Kobe: 5
tired old bag Duncan: 4
Though Kobe was given the keys to the franchise and couldn't get out of the 1st round until Pau took him and won 2
Boiled down:::
Duncan 4
Daddy 4
Pau 2
Kobe: 5
tired old bag Duncan: 4
2003. made the lakers cry like es on tv & won a championship with manu who was a bench warmer, parker who lost his spot to speedy claxton, & robinsons who could barley manage 20 mins a game.
kobes 1st round exit to nash and the "defensive minded" suns without amare.
Kobe on a team that spent over 100 mil just so he could get bukkaked by an old man, midget, & a turtle.
Still & all, Kobe handed the tired old bag Duncan the ty end of the 5-4 stick and Duncan had no other choice but, to take hold. It's topsy-turvy now. Kobe is topsy. the tired old bag Duncan is turvy.
It happens.
the bag should take heart though. At least Kobe didn't retire him holding that ty end of the 5-4 stick like he did Daddy. Daddy has to hold it for eternity.
Oh, me.
Switching Manu and Parker with Shaq and how many les would we have?
Kobe: 2
Timmy: 10
That's pie in the sky.
Timmy is down 5-4 and his bag is draggin'.
It happens.
Kobe never rang, made it out of the first round, and missed the playoffs altogether without Shaq until Pau Gasol came along.
you can also say Duncan never defended his le ......
back-to-backs
Bryant: 3
Duncan: 0
![]()
tbh, Kobe would have zero if not for Fisher
"would have" has Duncan, tired & old, totin' his bag around, holding the dirty end of the 5-4 stick.
& Gasol couldn't win a single playoff game till Kobe took him in. & Kobe sent Daddy into eternity down 5-4.
Duncan & his requisite tired old bag better get on the ball, or, he'll end up in the same place as Daddy...SOL.
It happens. It happened to Daddy. Timmy ain't immune.
man, can you imagine this room if Kobe or Duncan rings atleast once more ?????
damn, thats gonna be some funny ........
