Lakers: David Stern says Kobe Bryant is NBA’s best-ever world champion

[lefty20]

It's just factually incorrect. The greatest champion was Bill Russell, then Michael Jordan. There is no argument to be made that Bryant was the best at anything. Sorry.

His all-time brick leader le begs to differ. I highly doubt there will ever be another bricking machine like him.

Gotta give credit where it's due.

Would you believe that he still leads the Lakers in shots taken this season? So does Melo. What a couple of chuckers...

...nice to see you down here after you'd won your 2nd 5th. Ya chicken , you.

[Buddy Mignon]

I cant help but to think Stern is taking a shot at Jim here. I mean... Jim is one anti-social ass . Im sure Jim swearing not to represent our country after bringing home the bronze didn't sit well with Stern.

^I agree with Buddy.

Reminds me of the Ecclestone/Hamilton/Vettel situation in Formula 1.

[HI-FI]

just found out it's fake. still after 2002 WCF you could expect Stern to say it, leveraging his CFR shekels to support the Rapist.

good work op

lol lakerfan ate that right up

[mudyez]

Lol, didn't even mean to fool anyone...at least the Colorado stuff, die rebuilding with Sacre/Lin/Boozer stuff or the another 19 seasons stuff should have made guys wonder about it.

But what made me do it?

Like the link shows, the actual article is about Formula 1 and the difference between Vettel/Hamilton. Ok, comparing Vettel to Tim Duncan somewhat hurts me as a Spurs fan (and I like Vettel), but aren't there some important parallels? While the Lakers are the red carpet Champs, I'm pretty sure Stern wasn't pleased with the "boring" Spurs as NBA-Champs.

So while taking out the I made fun of, couldn't the first few lines be right from a Stern interview five years in the future or a book he writes several years from now?

TLR: Stern is mad that Duncan not only constantly shat on his league's most popular teams and routinely ejected them from the playoffs to cost him money, but is also mad Duncan wouldn't jump through hoops for him to make Stern his money back.

Just another hot Duncan took on Stern and the NBA by winning so much. Makes Duncan's/Spurs success all the more hilarious since it confirms Stern's bias against him and the Spurs, yet Duncan and the Spurs kept winning anyway.
