Lakers: When did you know Kobe was special

[lefty]

When.he needed 2 dominant bigs instead of one. That was impressive.

Lakerup salty that Bron rang twice

Eastern conference. Swept by a real team once they got into the finals. You can't win. Sorry

the pistons team he beat in the ECF was pretty damn solid. once the Celtics got their big 3, it's unfair to actually expect lebron to carry d-leaguers through those dudes. once he got an actual championship caliber team, he's made the finals 3 straight years

So you agree with me.

^^ neither Gasol nor Bynum were "dominant". Both can't win jack without Kobe as the ace.

30/20 combined in the post with Gasol shooting 62%, around the same as Shaq.

kobe only needed gasol and a half baked Odom to ring twice against the top defensive teams that year. All that matters.

Boiled down::

Kobe 3
Gasol 0
Bynum 0

I agree that lebron had mixed results carrying d-leaguers. He did get to the conference finals on more than one occasion. Kobe with similar roster talent couldn't pass the first round for 3 years in his prime

During the rape trial, was facing 20 years and still ballin... I see him play, and im like damn that is special.. how many black people do you know facing charges like that, and being black most surely get convicted and yet still playin good ball. 1 in a million.

he was special when he paid his wife a diamond ring after the beggin on the media, most s wouldve just walked out on a relationship and leave bas children like a cycle commonly in black households...

2000, when the Lakers won the le. Sure, Shaq was the top dog and Finals MVP but a le wouldn't be possible if Kobe wasn't special in that playoff run.
