Who Said Kobe Bryant Doesn't Improve Teammates?
7even:
I predict Bryant to average like 30-34 points this season, yet the Lakers will have their worst record since like forever.

Larry and Magic were about the same age as Kobe is now and they were doing great things. I've never hated on them. I just think Kobe was riding O'Niel to the championship, alot more than O'niel was riding Kobe. With Magic and Larry the driving force was clearly them. We'll find out in the next two seasons if Kobe can do it with out Shaq. The bottom line is that I htink Kobe is overrated and the next few seasons will either prove or refute my theory.

What about Shaq? If he doesnt win the title in Miami?

Well the same goes for Shaq I guess. But he's shown in the past that he can take teams far (before Kobe). Shaq's also a bit older.

Yes, but he didnt win a damn thing unless Kobe. And viceversa. Look, the truth is that Kobe cant win a title without Shaq, and Shaq cant win a title without Kobe. And the surrounding staff (Horry, Fox, R.Harper, B.Shaw, Fisher, George, etc..)

But IF Miami does go deep in the playoffs or win the championship, and the Lakers don't make it to the playoffs, then I want every Kobe lover to shut up forever. Besides I was comparing Kobe to Larry and Magic, not Shaq.

But then there could always be arguments of Miami having the better supporting cast and being in the east doesn't hurt neither...Remember, Miami made it deep into the playoffs last year WITHOUT Shaq.
Smooth:
LOL there could be NO argument that Miami has the better supporting cast, after shaq, they got wade who is sick, but then they basically got eddie jones who's only decent now... and what else, can't say christian Laettner he's whack now, they got nothin else.
Lakers defo got the better supporting cast end of story...
