Really? What year was that?
The Bulls already took an unsurmountable 3:0 lead early in the series. There will be a bad game for every player, even the best ones. However, very uncharacteristic for all time greats, Kobe sometimes sucks during a complete series.
Really? What year was that?
fify
Kobe is also the constant in his own missing the playoffs.
MJ's constant in missing the playoffs is... oh, wait... nevermind
And lol brother
Kobe rang without Daddy. Kobe rang without Gasol.
MJ never rang without Pippen.
Neither rang without Phil Jackson... Zen Master >>>> MJ/Kome
^What's that got to do with the price of eggs, El?
Jesus, what a ing stupid illogical argument.
Hasn't rung without Fisher has he?
Wasn't it Fisher saving Kobe's bacon in the 2009 Finals when Kobe couldn't throw it in the ocean for the 2nd straight game and going 0-for-everything down the stretch in Game 4? Wasn't it Fisher once again coming to the rescue in the 4th when Kobe was fizzling against the Celtics last year in the Finals in Game 3 and Game 7? Whenever Kobe is drowning it's Fisher who throws him that life preserver

& that's jake with me.
It was also Fisher who in Game 7 last June slapped Kobe upside the head to get him to settle the down and play the game in real time.

^It means I'm fine with it.
How many times do I have to say it:
Jordan without Pippen (5 seasons):
.430 win %
0 les
0 MVPs
0 Finals MVP
0 Finals appearances
0 Playoff series wins
1-9 playoff record
0 NBA All Defense Team
0 NBA Defensive Player of the year
Kobe without Snaq (6 seasons):
.611 win %
3 Finals appearances
2 Championships
1 MVP (Reg season)
2 MVP (Finals)
5 NBA All Defense 1st Team
81 points in 1 game
62 points in 3 quarters (outscored Mavs all by himself)
4 straight 50+ pt games
30 straight 40+ games averaged 40 for a month
LMAO Kobe
He is not even half the player Jordan was
How indeed did he prove he can take MJ one on one? You are full of it bruh![]()
Kobe's first words to Tim in the playoffs were "why did you skunk me?"
Has any other "superstar" been skunked back to back in the playoffs before like Kobe has?
Kobes cast is alot better than MJ's without Pippen since you go there! Pau Gasol is one of the best big men in the game, an all star! MJ without Pippen had? Stop it. Put up those years without a big man for KOBE! He won .
Jordan didnt play in that ty watered down NBA
And while you say without Shaq, does it include "without Gasol" as well?
GTFO
I'll put it another way. When Kobe rang without Shaq, he had Gasol. When Kobe rang without Gasol, he had Shaq. There was never a year that Kobe won the NBA Championship without the help of either Shaq or Gasol. FACT.
^ this
Fish was as big a part of those rings as Kobe.
You say that like it matters. It's still:
Jordan: 6
Kobe: 5
And it will stay that way forever.
Does lakerfan really seriously feel like Kobe is better than MJ? Like legitimately?
Jordan always lead his team to the playoffs, even with ty players around him. Can't say the same for Kobe.
Kobe was skunked by Tim first and that is all that matters. It was the first time Kobe met Tim when it was money time and Tim laid down the law with a skunker. Subsequently, it rattled Kobe so much, that he got skunked the very next year in the playoffs and nothing changes that.
Yup.
, LeBron led a team of scrubs to to the NBA Finals in 2007. Kobe couldn't lead a team of scrubs to a bowling alley.![]()
But, Kobe still rang without Daddy & without Gasol.
Jordan never rang without Pippen.
Recognizing Phil Jackson is completely warranted IMO... He was able to ring with MJ, Shaq and Gasol as his stars... All fairly dominant players, but with very different characteristics...
