Without Kobe's heriocs in that game (which i recall was Gm 4), the Lakers would've taken care of business in 7 games. You can't credit Kobe over Daddy for that ring cause Daddy was putting up ridiculous numbers which actually made the league change rules. Now that's something unheard of tbh.
You may hate Daddy for all you care but he's the sole reason why the Lakers have 1 less championship rather than 4 than Boston. I don't think Kobe could've flourished in another franchise (especially the Bulls which he seriously considered moving in the 2004 offseason). He has Jerry Buss to thank for.
