can we just close the thread?
it was kind of funny how back in the day when people use to say players on the Lakers were wack, NIK fought each and every battle & even made Jordan Farmar out to be some All-Star; now when we're saying, you were right, they are mad good, that's why they win, he QUICKLY turns it around to "Kobe makes them good, they're just alright without him" lol.
EDIT: who are you tryna fool, brah? hypothetically speaking of course, if LeBron, D-Wade & Chris Bosh teamed up in the off-season & won the next seven rings together, you would find something to bitch at about LeBron & how his winning doesn't compare to Kobe's.

I dont get what your argument is...I never said the Laker supporting players were whack, and I never made them out to be better than they were either. They are what they are, a champion supporting cast who know their role, partly because their leader is a champion who helps guide them into that winning mentality. If LeBron wins 7 rings while playing at the highest level, he will definitely be in the argument for greatest of all time. Like I said, even if LeBron wins it this year, my opinion on him will change drastically...PeACe

Would u say if Jordan left the league after his 5th title...the Jazz would have won the championship the following year, instead of the Bulls?

Could be...I can't say what would have happened, many things coulda gone down different in the NBA had Jordan not played in 97-98. In what way is that relevant to the topic?

i don't know, brah.
i could of sworn you said Pau was better than Dwight & Andrew Bynum was going to be the next big thing & you said Odom was incredible & it's no secret that Ron Artest could be the best defender in Basketball.
the Lakers could make the Playoffs without Kobe, even in the West.
the Cavs wouldn't make the Playoffs without LeBron, in the East.
Jaydc:
he said bynum would be all star this year.

Gasol is great, don't get me wrong, and Andrew Bynum is currently a center who has a chance to be a star for years to come...Odom, as well, has always played at an all-star level, but he was questioned throughout his career until Kobe finally helped lead him to a ring... and no doubt, Artest is a tremendous 1-on-1 defender, but lets be real here, Artest has been a void on offense in the triangle, which he's still figuring out...you have to take every factor into the equation. when it comes down to it, Lakers would NOT make the playoffs without Kobe, no way, not in the west, where it took 50 wins to grab an 8th seed...If this Laker team would reach 50 wins without Kobe, that would be the overachievement of the decade. Cleveland play good as a unit, on both ends, even without LeBron, and they play in the east, so they woulda had a much easier time making the playoffs minus LeBron than the Lakers minus Kobe...Cavs would have an easier time beating the Bulls or Bucks or Bobcats without LeBron than the Lakers would have beating the Thunder or Spurs or Blazers minus Kobe, wouldn't you say?

I think most people would say the Jazz would have won that series. There was no team in the league better then them...OTHER then the Bulls. With that being said...if Jordan would have left a year early, Malone would have a title. Would that make him a better player all time because Jordan wasnt there?
