Cooked Kings, bytchmade bigs, and shytty snitches: Your 2022-23 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread

Kobe is a legend... But he had deficiencies in his game that everyone is aware of
Yet another lie on your part. The game was tied 2 minutes into the 4th, then Rui scored to give the Lakers the lead. That double-digit lead you mention was halfway through the 4th and only lasted 77 seconds.
What is this reaching bullshyt?
Game 1, Lakers had a shot to tie with a minute left, but to @CantStop it wasn't close cause they were down big in the first half
Game 2, Lakers led for 3 quarters and were down two with a minute left, but @CantStop it wasn't close because Denver briefly opened a double-digit lead for a few seconds of the 4th before immediately losing it again.
Game 3, Lakers took the lead with 7:30 left, but to @CantStop it wasn't close because Denver pulled away late in the 4th.
Game 4, Lakers jumped out to a lead immediately and had a 15-point lead at halftime, but to @CantStop this game supposedly WAS "a wire-to-wire game" because Denver closed the gap in the 3rd quarter.
You literally had to change the goalposts for what consistents a "close game" for every single game.
Cut out the part about non existent charts. I would delete parts of people's post too if I embarrassed myself that badly after insisting that because of excel formulas, LeBron was a better than Jamal Murray. I'm shocked that we didn't manage to win a game considering Bron and AD were approximately 3 inches above the likes of Devin Booker(who won 2 games), Kevin Durant(who won 2 games), 10 inches above Anthony Edwards(who won 1 game) and 5 inches above Jamal Murray who embarrased Lebron every single game.
Now, let's put this into simple terms:
You: The Lakers were there every single game and could have won in a series sweep
Me prior to the series: Lakers have no chance against Denver and we'll get swept like it's 2011
Now, from the outside looking in, who looks more idiotic
Until that cracker @jaydawg08 can produce anything as accurate as this, I will no longer engage with a dweeb who actively posts on a white supremacist forum.
So you're just going to ignore the blatant goalpost-moving you made after EVERY GAME to claim that none of the first three games were close?
Just like you ignore that I caught you lying when you claimed I was convincing people the series was decided solely on fluke Jokic shots?
Instead, you deflect again to your repeated demand that I post WCF charts that don't even exist, and still can't stop talking about these imaginary charts.
"The Lakers lost four games, therefore those games were not close" is one of the most classic psychological errors of all time. It's the "It happened therefore it was inevitable" fallacy, where every event that happened before the outcome is retrofitted in response to the outcome. And the more emotional someone is, the more likely they are to make it. So it's no surprise you think this way.
You could make an argument that Gasol outplayed Wade in their finals runman this guy Jaydawgs posts on BB are hilarious
in this thread he argues that Pau and Artest were the same as Wade and Bosh, and that Pau was better than Wade

Pau was more critical defensively too. Shut down Dwight Howard in the 2009 Finals while averaging 2 blocks a game, then helped hold Garnett to just 15-5-3 in the 2010 Finals while himself averaging 19-12-4 and 3 blocks a game.

Pay Reeves and Rui.
Draft well.
Find the most gully GM in the league and convince them D-Lo is salvageable in the right system.
Those gotta be the most important priorities. Hard to imagine any other place to find value.

Trade AD and Lebron to get D-Lo some help.

Only bron Stan’s would say pau>>wade . It’s like they don’t realize Kobe elevated teammates while bron hinders stars

What he actually said was that Pau during the title runs was better than Wade during the title runs. Which is a fair case especially when comparing 2010 to 2013.
It's like you don't realize there have already been entire threads debunking this, but you keep going back to the same well.
1st options don't get "elevated" when turned into 3rd options in any case. Where was Kobe's "elevation" when we're talking Glen Rice, Karl Malone, Gary Payton, Ron Artest, Lamar after Pau came on, or Pau after Dwight came on? Y'all always ignore what happened to every 3rd option on Kobe's teams was as bad or worse than what happened to 3rd options on Bron's teams. You don't even wanna talk about 2013 Dwight.
When you're talking 2nd options, pre-injuries Wade, Kyrie and pre-injuries AD looked just as good as 2008-2010 Pau did. But again, that gets ignored.
Absolutely bizarre that you build an entire narrative around Pau, when he was the exact same player before Kobe and after with the exact same numbers and impact. But ignore Rice, Malone, Payton, Odom, Artest, Dwight, Nash because none of those fit the narrative. Who the fukk does fit your "But Kobe elevates his sidekick stars!" narrative, other than Pau?
