Nobody is saying that Kobe rode the bench during the first 3 championships but alot of you dudes certainly over-exaggerate his play during that timeframe. You same dudes mention maybe 1 or 2 games during those 3 seasons, with the highlight being Game 4 of the finals against the Pacers in overtime as if there were NO other games that season at all. Nevermind the 82 games during the regular season, or the other playoff games. As if any and everything was decided in that infamous Game 4 in overtime.......
Kobe did his thing, and did it quite well during the 3-peat, but at the end of the day he was Robin as Shaq was Batman. Kobe was the little brother and Shaq was the big brother. Shaq was Michael Jackson, and Kobe was Tito Jackson.
are you talking about game 6?
Yes i know the kings missed some shots to lose the game but its really hard for a small market to win in the nba,even tim donaughy the ref admitted on selling the game still the lakers get a past smh at the commissioner
02 nba playoffs lakers vs kings
I for one have said over and over that Kobe is a top 10-15 player of all time. He only becomes overrated when people think he's somehow a top 5 player. Or 2nd to Jordan. Many even say he's better than Jordan. Some even think he's a better Laker than Magic & Kareem. Even though he played Pippen for a chunk of his career.the absolutes in here are so funny.
like none of yall want to budge a little and give each side credit.

Game 6 was some nonsense; all kinds of shenanigans.

In Game 7 though the Kings missed about a million free throws and pretty much any Kings' player not named Mike Bibby completely folded as the pressure intensified late in that game.
Still remember that Peja airball 3.
lugaw87: *warned* Keep that kind of talk on whatever other sites you use it on.
I'll play.
