Rose, coming off ACL surgery, is going to beat the Heat when he couldn't do it while healthy in 2011?Originally Posted by DubA169

he should have gotten last year if he didn't hide in a shell. Wade carried him in last years finals. But sweep it under the rug.
If rose somehow beat them next year it's only gonna make it look worse. But at least he got one. So he isn't the most talented failure anymore.
What makes DubA's vitriol so funny is that he'd be singing a much different tune had Lebron come to New York. Scorned lover syndrome. Nothing more, nothing less.Originally Posted by seasoned vet

It all makes sense now. You're a basketball genius bro.
Did I see what happened after the Lakers game? Ya, did you?
And then Melo and Stat came back and messed up the chemistry.
Men lie, women lie, numbers don't
Kobe 2000 finals
game 1: 14 points on 13 shots.
game 2: scored 2 points and played 9 minutes due to an injury
game 3: didn't play
game 4: This was the game when Kobe stepped up and hit some big shots in over time. Kobe played pretty good and this game and had 28 points on 51% shooting, but Shaq had 36 points and 21 rebounds.
game 5: scored 8 points on 4-20 shots (20 FG%)
game 6: 8-27 shooting (29 FG%)
Compare that to Shaq's performance in the 2000 Finals.
Shaq averaged 38 points, 17 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 assists on 61% shooting
Game 1: 43 points, 19 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks 67% shooting
Game 2: 40 points, 24 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks 61%shooting
Game 3: 33 points, 13 rebounds, 2 blocks 62% shooting
Game 4: 36 points, 21 rebounds, 2 blocks, 2 steals 52% shooting
Game 5: 35 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals 63% shooting
Game 6: 41 points, 12 rebounds, 4 blocks 59% shooting

Here's their playoff PPG during those 3 years for the whole playoffs, not just finals.
2000 - Shaq 30 and Kobe 22
2001 - Shaq 30 and Kobe 30
2002 - Shaq 28 and Kobe 27
That 2001 playoff run was INSANE though! They killed everything in their way!
i agree to an extent, they're are valuable role players such a Kerr, a Horry & as of late Miller/Chalmers etc but we're not going to say there AS valuable to their respective team as Jordan, Shaq/Kobe and LeBron? Though their roles were appreciated on the teams they don't hold as much weight. That's why i view it as unfair. Kobe wasn't even an (truly) established veteran considering dude was in his 3rd year and was only 21 years old putting up the #'s he was doing.Originally Posted by Deuce King

i mean i understand you hate the guy or whatever but to totally disregard his effort in the regular season/playoffs because he hurt in the Finals is a little unfair.
That's all you really had to say champ. I applaud you and the rest of the Kobe brigade for standing up for your boy because that's what your suppose to do. In all 3 of Kobe's first championships he had his moments or had his games.............however Shaq was the MAIN GUY each year during that 3-peat run. Nobody is trying to discredit Kobe, everybody knows that he's one of the greatest players of all-time, no doubt about that. Kobe fans in here are just trying to cop pleas and looking to gain sympathy. Talking about "they don't reach/make the Finals without Kobe", well yeah those teams don't make the Finals without Fisher, Van Exel. or the waterboy for that matter. Any and everybody on a team contributes in some sort of way, but there can only be 1 captain, 1 honcho, or 1 Batman. At NO POINT during that 3-peat run was Kobe ever any of those things on a consistent basis, he was Robin and he played his role perfectly. Who knows maybe that Lakers team wins another 2 or 3 championships if Kobe/Robin plays his role instead of trying to take over the scene before being properly prepared.

and on another note, why is it always Batman/Robin were the "Robin" is always hanging on the coatails? There can't be a Batman/Superman dynamic kinda thing? I don't think someone would say Magic was the head honcho and Kareem was the sidekick, right?
i used the example of Magic/Kareem to try and stop denouncing of a team with 2 superstar players, wasn't trying to disspelled any of Magic's accomplishmentsOriginally Posted by quik1987

How are you going to defend Kobe by saying he was so young at the time, he was only in his 3rd year
Then bring up Magic, who is on the list on the first post. Who was in his rookie year. Won Finals MVP. And dropped the numbers he did.
