Should the Lakers trade Kobe to a contender?
Hack Wilson - real:
don't worry man, my Celtics aren't going to be shit for awhile either. maybe if we luck out in next years draft but you can never count on that. all i ask is that i can continue to watch Rondo dominate other PG's in a Celtics uniform

I love them NIK says shit like "his team makes him look better".
1. Why would GM's not best suit their teams FOR their superstar...kinda like Kobe demanded the Lakers did before he jumped ship.
2. Wade can barely stretch without needing an ice pack, Bosh scored zero points in the biggest game of his life and everyone else is a minimum wage shooter.
If you want to use an "if" argument, IF Bron had Dwight instead of Bosh he would of swept the Spurs...and probably have gone 82-0. Kobe just can't utilize him because he's a terrible teammate and has an even worse ego.
You needa just come to terms that you're mad that Game 7 was arguably the greatest game ever played by anyone, especially in a Game 7.

can't it be fall already? we'd have the NFL back, the world series would be going on and the NBA season would be tipping off right after

I used to have respect for NIK and his basketball view, and up until last year, we were always in agreement. Cham and other Lebron fans were so annoying with the "what if" games, i.e. "if Lebron had Shaq, if Lebron had better teammates and so on", basically making up excuses why Lebron was ring-less. I remember how we always called out Cham and other that nobody gives a fuck about a "what if" and what actually happened is the only thing that mattered.
Well, fast forward 2 years and NIK is using the same bullshit logic to discredit Lebron's last 2 rings. Making up all this hypothetical scenarios and saying how last season was a short one, how Lebron was one shot aways from whatever NIK is claiming. But guess what? That did not fucking happen. Miami Heat won. For the 2nd year in a row. Nobody is going to remember the specifics on how they won. They will know that Lebron played his ass off to get Miami to the finals, despite Bosh and Wade going to the shitter. They will remember him having a shaky finals but that's nothing rare for the finals, which is a completely different chapter. He had some bad games, but a bad game in current Lebron world is having a triple double. A triple double.
And most importantly, if you are dumb enough to play the what if game, which by itself, like anybody who played sports in their life knows, is totally pointless...you have the use it all the time. Not just when it's convenient for you. Just going by last couple of years, one might wonder WHAT IF the whole Laker team hadn't bailed out Kobe from that terrible game 7 against Boston. WHAT IF Gasol didn't score that tip in after Kobe's missed clutch shot against OKC?
But like I've said, thinking like that is retarded because all everybody is going to remember and SHOULD remember is Kobe winning that ring number 4 and 5.
