Spurs: It's official Tim retires

[Killakobe81]

Good Lord, Mid really said repeating is not better than winning two les in 4 years. Smh.

Spur defense mechanism ...
Of course it doesnt matter because they have never done it.
Its not the end all Kobepau did it and to me was less impressive thsn the 2008 Celts or 2011 mavs but doing it still shows some dominance ...that the spurs lacked. But they were consitently great for a mich longer period and that is a different feat thatvis also impressive

It's not close actually. The numbers are not close. Neither are the advanced stats which you have to use unstead of raw numbers.

I already posted them, those numbers are as close as close can get, and Duncan actually bested Hakeem in a number of those stats .... well, unless you really just want to look at scoring.

Kobe actually had more win shares in the 2000 -2001 playoffs. 3.8 to Shaq's 3.7. So he did play a Big part. Possibly bigger that year.

Damn. Djohn with the counter-strike detonation on Clipper Nation's "truth bombs".

Kobe never got past Round 1 as the first option either. Even Vince has won more playoff series as the alpha than Kobe.

Kobe led a back to back Period.
Tim never led a repeat.
Tim had the better career is higher ranked on plenty of "lists"
Tim has the better advanced metrics ...

Yet still never led a repeat. those are all FACTS.
You can say a repeat doesnt matter, team accomplishment etc.
Still a fact.

The only repeat Kobe ever led was repeatedly missing the playoffs. Oh, and back-to-back first-round exits in his prime, including the time he blew a 3-1 lead against Steve Nsh and the choking Suns.

Shaq and MVPau, on the other hand? Those guys can say they led championship repeats.
