Yes Gasol was the leader of the Grizz team who made the playoffs 3 time while the great Mamba didn't in one of those years.
'09, '10 Gasol? Do I need to explain? Mid said it all already.![]()
Lol, he needs a stacked team to do anything..what's contradictory about that?..and how many top 15 players miss the playoffs and/or had losing records in their prime?..serious question..go check..

Yep.
No one considered Kobe the best player in the league in '05. That was one of this worst years as a starter.
During the regular season, perhaps, but don't Lakers fansregular season?
'06 Playoff stats:
Kobe (against the no defense playing Suns): 27.9ppg (7 points below his season average. Huge dropoff. Further proving his 35 regular season PPG was more stat padding than it was legit), 6.3rpg, 5.1apg, 1.0spg, 4.7TO on .497 shooting.
Wade (played defensive minded teams like the Pistons and a 60 win Mavs team in the Finals, who were also great defensively under Avery): 28.2ppg, 5.9rpg, 5.7apg, 2.2spg, 3.9TO on .497 shooting.
'07:
I'm tired of typing all this bull out, so I'm using PER (deal with it):
Kobe: 24.1 (another first round exit)
Duncan: 27.2 (won the le)
Kareem, twice
Jordan, twice
Hakeem, 3 times
, Kareem won an MVP with a losing record.
Not in his prime he didn't...
No I didn't.
I responded with "swept" to your 7-22. And you responded back with Kobe 4-1 vs. the Spurs in the playoffs.
I wasn't even thinking about Kirby since he's irrelevant until you brought him up and reignited my passion for slapping the out of Kobe fanboys.
Kobe was the best player in 06-08. Coaches, GMs, players all agree. There's video of them saying it. Wade and Lebron were calling Kobe the best in 08 and 09. LMAO at Duncan in 07 LOLOLOL ing idiot.
That's because he played in the East. Check his team's W-L the first 3 years. All below .500. And don't tell me he wasn't in his prime. He was averging 35-37 ppg back then, had his highest ppg season of his career during the time.
Popovich on Kobe in 07
"Most talented player on both sides"
Can't believe some of you Spur fans are really this dumb. Kobe had 10 50+ point games in 2006-07 season.
Bbbbut "stat pading" smh
Lol..Kareem did twice didnt know that (lol GOAT my ass)..Jordan never did in his prime..Hakeem did just once in his prime and his team still had a winning record: http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/HOU/
Lol, Kobe 14 games under .500 in his prime..lol 2 for 20 stretch run..
Opinions of "basketball people."
You cares what "they" say, the stats and performances clearly show Wade was superior to Kobe in '06. The stats clearly show AGAIN Duncan was superior to Kobe. Stop being preoccupied with PPG.
Kobe was probably the best player in '08, but his Finals meltdown might prove otherwise. After that it's been Lebron's league (although I think Dirk temporarily stole that le from him in '11).
Lol, Kobe 5 rings
86-87 Bulls: 40-42 (Jordan 37.1 ppg season, don't tell me he wasn't in his prime)
damn i've missed seeing the midnightpulp meltdowns.
Yeah your Kobe hatred just blinds you from thinking straight. Kobe dropped 62 in 3 quarters, outscoring the team by himself vs the same team Wade was going to the FT line in the Finals.
2007....not worth my time because it's lol worthy
2008...yeah too obvious again.
Deflecting per par.![]()
Being the best player in 05Misses playoffs
Lol, Lakers sitting at 32-30 probably about the eighth seed..Kobe: "Don't worry guys, I got this!"..willing em to victory etc..Final record 34-48, 12th seed..GOAT!!..
Because of the other teams positions. The Bulls made the Playoffs with a 30-52 record the year before. Yeah 30-52.
What happened in the playoffs?
No one gave a about David Robinson's 71 point game or quad double when he got toasted in the playoffs.
Here's where you say Kobe had no help.
Closeout game 5 against the Suns:
Kobe: 34 points on 13-33 shooting with 6 TOs.
Odom: 33 points on 12-21 shooting, 10 boards.
Kobe also had only one assist. He wasn't getting other players involved.
Deuce Bigalow how about giving us some stats tbh?![]()
Never said he was in 05 though.
Regular season performances.
