    God was better than the Great Satan when he entered the league. The only reason he didn't average more points his rookie year was because he wanted to be a team player unlike the Great Satan who was selfish from the beginning.

    True. He & his father had taken that "fit" --- had exercised their franchise together. I don't blame them. It's not personal. It's business. Boston got Bird via Stern enabling the protocol. I understood. "He was made for the Celtics." I took no offense, never held it against them as they tortured me & mine. When we exacted our vengeance I never held that same protocol as a firing point. It wasn't.

    You got your Duncan thru human machination. Others have lodged the asterisk. I have not.
    We got Timmy the same way the Cavs got Lebron: tanking and winning the lottery. But Dr Buss (RIP) wouldn't have none of that and still get away with it, which is among other things why he was the GOAT owner.

    It obviously helped that Kirby was made since he was born, unlike other players that develop such trait as time goes on...

    & he had a strong father & father figure. Nothing wrong with that. What, Stern was gonna do right by him? No. Stern was going to do what Kobe's old man told him to do. It's personal twixt Kobe and his old man, yes, but, it ain't personal otherwise. It's business.

    You're purposely overlooking that what Dr Buss wanted, Dr Buss gets. It was the days players begged to play for the Lakers, and not the other way around...

    I maintain though without the strong father figure he'd a been cast upon the waters like so many of his contemporaries who foundered & sunk. Buss didn't go and snatch him from old man Bryant. Old man Bryant made a deal for his kid.
