THE 2015 NBA PRE SEASON THREAD: BEST WISHES TO LAMAR ODOM

[Vincent Van Goat]

I find it absolutely HILARIOUS that anyone would think LeBron would be better in the Triangle with Shaq than Kobe. It's almost like you haven't even watched this dude play for 12 years

. His skill set does not compliment that system in any way more than Kobe's. I'm quite baffled

At the same time, I don't doubt Phil. He would make it work with LeBron

Exactly.

It's funny how one side of the argument wants it one way... but refuses to look at it from the other side.

We saw what Kobe did when he was carrying Smushcalade and Bill's son... but if he played in the east and had to play the scrubby teams LeBron has, he 'couldn't put up the stats.'

He did nothing without Shaq or Pau 

 

[thirdtimearound]

Thats like only 2 season though.

 

[mister friendly]

Kobe has never made the NBA Finals without Derek Fisher carrying his ****

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Thats like only 2 season though.

Fortunately for Kobe

 

[Chester McFloppy]

He did nothing without Shaq or Pau 

You mean when he won 47 games or when he won 42 games?

LeBron hasn't done anything without Wade.

34, 45, 42 were the wins he got without Shaq or Pau

The year they were up 3-1 on the Suns, only to choke and when Kobe quit, was when Amare was injured for the season

The next year when Amare was back, the Suns destroyed the Lakers 4-1

 

[Chester McFloppy]

Chris Paul would have more rings than LeBron James if he played in the east.

Garbage *** conference.

CP0 backhanded praise from you

Lakers had to play legitimate competition in the playoffs against teams with winning records.

LeBron gets to play NBDL teams that win 32 games in the first two rounds.

It's not as fun as the CP slander since there aren't any Cav fans like there are Clipper fans

 

[Chester McFloppy]

Cavs fans only exist from November to May.

Just like the Kobe riders are as well 

 

[thirdtimearound]

Kobe>Lebron all time

not nearly as entertaining as the  "if lj played with shaq he would have_____titles in a row" kobe fans state more facts then what ifs. fantasy is funner then . reality... with lebron fans we are forced to use our imaginations and imagine crazy scenarios that cement how great lj is.

water is wet.

Why would Kobe fans state anything other than he's been gifted the most talent and best coaching of any other player in NBA history? I don't blame you guys for acting the way you do, you don't know any better

 

[al3xis]

best coaching

The one thing nobody ever comments on (because Kobe/Jordan fans can't displace Phil). Even though we see its worth every post-season.

 

[thirdtimearound]

It's takes special talent to run such a complex offense.

 

[Lovetohate3000]

 

[mister friendly]

Shaq was the main guy on those teams and some Kobe fans want to act like Kobes role in those 3 rings were the same as Jordans or Lebrons roles in winning rings.

Kobe haters treat Kobe as a role player.

Kind of, more so smart players who can pass and move without the basketball. Time every thing right (like cutting, screening, moving to a spot) depending on how the defense is playing you

"When I was playing, every team was stacked! Now, there are only two good teams in the East." -@RonySeikaly on the #NBA in the 1990's



BTW, I didn't know that Rony Seikaly the former NBA player was also Rony Seikaly the DJ. I thought it was two different people who coincidentally had the exact same name.

 

[sea manup]

I hope kobe plays another 5 years, gets carried to a championship and wins final mvp purely on reputation. People would be so upset
