Has a player ever had as big an impact post-retirement on the NBA as Kobe Bryant?

[Bilz]

and to say Kobe would have the same record as Bron in the finals with the same teammates is HILARIOUSSSSS

Kobe with Wade and Bosh would've lost to Dallas in 2011? Really? Really??? Even with that bum ass knee he had that season, he would've mustered up more than that 17ppg or whatever Bron put up

Kobe was an overwhelming favorite to beat Dallas with his own team and we saw how that turned out.

The Kobe stanning is hilarious because it's 100% troll game.

It's obvious Kobe isn't the GOAT because he's a straight up MJ knockoff. Then on top of that, the True GOAT rose on his watch.

But these nikkas followed the false prophet and after it became evident they just still run with the joke. At the very least you can say they have a sense of humor about themselves but sometimes I think they forget it's a joke and take it to unhealthy levels.

LOL @ Shaq doing *most* of the work for the 3 rings....y'all gonna have to give that up. 2000 you can say that but for 2001 and 2002, FOH

That's why Kyrie is leaving. Nikkas love to diminish players role if they aren't the #1 guy. It's not like Lebron wasn't a sidekick during his stint in Miami, either cause during that 2011 series, Lebron played like he wasn't even the 2nd best player against the Mavs after game 3. Kobe put up much better numbers against Dallas than Bron that year and Kobe was 33 with a bad ankle and knee. Lebron was like 26/27 and perfectly healthy. That says a lot

Spurs won 6 less games without DunGawd. Lakers won 9 more games without Kobe.

Spurs made the WCF without Duncan while the Lakers stayed the same

Much better?

Kobe dropped 23/3/2 on lower efficiency, Lebron dropped 17/7/6 on high efficiency.

Kobe let Jason Terry drop 20 points on SKY HIGH EFFICIENCY and couldn't guard a damn thing. For whatever you wanna say about Lebron's defense on Terry, Kobe's was about ten times worse.

Better numbers and more impact my ass.

You really comparing a 33 year old Kobe with injured knees to a 26 year old LeBron in his prime?

Put 26 year old Kobe on that Heat them and they sweep Dirk and the Mavs.

yeah because Pau and LO are better than Wade and Bosh. And a 33 year old kobe on a bum knee is the same as 26 year old Kobe. Shut up.

Kobe was 33 with fukked up knees. LeBron was 26 and fully healthy.

Put a healthy 26 year old Kobe on that Heat them and they beat the Mavs 4-0 in 4 straight blowouts.

 

[10bandz]

No way Bron with a healthy team loses in 2015 and No way in hell does Kobe win vs either Spurs team.

A prime Kobe with Wade and Bosh doesn't beat the Spurs

A prime kobe get locked up by 21 year old Kawai

I don't even need to compare them as players because this isn't about that. Its about you foolishly thinking that Kobe can't be upset when it happened numerous times, even in his prime.

If you didn't have the misfortune of seeing Kobe getting booted out of the playoffs so viciously, you would have argued that such a defeat wasn't possible.

Kobe got swept.

 

[BigTyme Records]

Kyrie >>>>>>Kobe in the finals kobe only has one 40pt game and shoots 40% for his career....got carried by shaq to 3 titles

 

[HabitualChiller]

LeBron didn't get locked up by anyone. You nikkas forget that Kobe is ultra selfish. That's the reason why he lost to the Pistons.

 

[Rigby.]

@no1es run this we get 20 of these garbage ass bytches but these mods dont give a fukk cause they just as biased smfh

 

[madness]
