It looks like the cHeat and the Spurs will be in the finals and I need some help/advise please on who to be pushing/pulling for in this series on the 1 hand you have LJB and the mainstreem media hyping this guy like he is the next Kobe or something when he has lost like 2 finals LOB trophies while only winning 1 and Kobe is working on 6 tying Jordan and the Lakers have 17. But on the otter hand Duncan and Kobe basically came into the league together and Kobe has moar rings so it would totally suck/stink if that old man slow Duncan ridden the coattails of Tony Parker (French) and ties Kobe for rings even though Kobe has had like 2x as many points and is a much clearer hallavafamer than Duncan plus he has had much better teams and supporting cast than Kobe who has basically had to do it all by himself
Which brings me to a nother point I keep hearing: why do people compare Kobe with Pippen and Manu and Wade instead of Jordan and Wilt and Majic and say that he was always the 2nd leadman on the team when obviously that is not true I mean Shaq sucked and is fat and Gasol was already washed up when the Lakers traded for him so why would people say he plays the 2nd faddle and how do I respond???
Thansk for the help (please be kind/nice this is only my 3rd thread in my entire lakersground.net existance and last time people werent that nice) |
Were you eight when the Lakers threepeat happened and just can't remember accurately? Because Shaq was a beast. I'm not going to turn this into a discussion of who was more responsible for the rings, but you can't honestly look at Shaq, especially in 2000/2001 when he still had that dropstep and footwork, and say he was fat and sucked. 33 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists? Good got dang Dwight Howard wishes he could put up at least half that consistently. |
No I was 4 and I don't remember everything but I have watched those DVDs like 30 times and each time Shaq was quiet fat yeah he could dunk hard and throw people a round but Kobe was the one who facialitated everybody/one and Shaq was just a long for the ride of Kobe smashing peoples demoralization and reputations from what I saw maybe I should watch those DVDs again but it will be like times number 31 and 32 |
