Figures you'd focus on the one thing you might be able to defend.
Anyway, Scottie was never a top five player in his league. Dwight is & there's no one close to him besides Bynum.
Considering the last decade the Finals was one by Shaq, Duncan, Robinson, Shaq in Miami, KG & Dirk, I'd say having the best big men in the league is more important than a all-star wing player.
Hack Wilson - real:
nobody with a brain was taking Pippen over Hakeem, Ewing, Barkley, Malone or Robinson 8)

right, but in the 80's-90's it was Magic, Jordan, Bird, Isaiah, etc was winnin all the titles. PERIMETER PLAYERS. As for Pippen never being a top 5 player LOL...he was in the same class as Barkley, Ewing, Hakeem, Drexler, etc. and he's had better seasons than all of 'em. you werent alive yet, but i clearly remember many claiming him as the 2nd best player in the league for some of those years, especially in the mid-90s.
fact of the matter is, the Pippen led Bulls team that went to the ECF were better than this Laker team with no Kobe. you also have to take everything into account, not just player-by-player comparison. who had the better team as a unit? better chemistry? better role players who knew how to play their part to perfection? better coaching staff? playbook? lets not act like Pau and Nash are in their prime, either. so yea, it's pretty safe to say that the Pippen led Bulls would take out a Dwight led Lakers. and a Wade-led Heat (who actually won the title in '06) would also take out a Dwight-led Lakers......now, if Nash and Pau were still in their prime, I'd probably give the edge to the Lakers...but u are completely overrating Kobe's supporting cast, not realizing that pretty much MOST championship unit of the last couple decades have been just as great or greater.....and i know why ur doing it. it's because u know Lakers are taking it this year, and u will need excuses as to why LeBron lost once Kobe gets that 6th. it's ok, buddy. i see u. just dont start believing ur lies.

I was actually 2 years old...and you were 8. But I forget at 8 years old you develop high intellect for deep analysis lmao. But you're wrong. Shaq, Karl, Robinson, Hakeem, Barkley & Ewing were all better. Even better is that it just goes to prove my point because they're all big men lmao. EVEN BETTER is that everyone I named had to go up against each other making them respectfully "less" dominate when they went against each other. Dwight's comparison to literally nobody makes him even more dominate to the league today.
Anyway, why is that so safe to say? Pau is still a top five big man & Dwight is #1...by far. Rodman wasn't guarding him. Nash is better than Kerr..by far. Averaged 14 assists with Grant Hill last season. The only thing I'll give you is the chemistry...only because we haven't seen them yet.
But on paper, this Lakers team without Kobe would easily beat the Bulls team without MJ.
