in 2010 Kobe became the ONLY player EVER to lead a team to a title while beating four straight 50+ win teams on the way to a title.....while Bron played 41 win Bulls in the first round and got smacked in the 2nd round by Boston with Rajon rondo being their leading scorer :mjlol:

You thought you had something with that post

Yall Kobe stans be making alternate realities. Kobe wasn't the only player to beat 4 straight 50+ win teams. You forgot a player who was greater than Kobe.

Hakeem Olajuwon who beat:
60 Win Utah Jazz
59 Win Phoenix Suns
62 Win San Antonio Spurs
57 Win Orlando Magic

He beat 4 57+ win teams in the same run and 2 60+ win teams. Kobe's 2010 Lakers beat 0 teams with 55+ wins.

Bron beat the goat team/all time season win record holders in the finals. That alone should nullify all of the bullshyt these guys are talking about. The goalpost is always moved for dude :mjlol:

You're not the GOAT team if you lost the championship. Especially if you lost after being up 3-1. It's an oxymoron.

Besides....yall talk out both sides of your mouth. Today, it's Golden State is the GOAT team.....LeBron really beat the greatest of the greatest, tomorrow it's Steph shouldn't be compared to LeBron and isn't in his league :mjlol:

I'm not looking down on him. He's had an amazing career.

But kings rule. 4 titles in two decades ain't that.

Congratulations to him for having a more successful career than Ewing and Barkley.

He’s arguably had the best career ever. He has more points than Kareem and more assists than magic. I don’t think he’s over Mike but it’s hard to argue anyone else. Only player in history with 30,000, 10,000, 10,000. 4 chips, 4 final MVPs, 4 regular season MVPs. That’s more than just having a better career than Ewing and Barkley and both of them are legendary basketball players in their own right.

2011 - Mavericks
2012 - Thunder
2013 - Spurs
2014 - Spurs
2015 - Warriors
2016 - Warriors
2017 - Warriors
2018 - Warriors

You think LeBron in the West would have beat all of these teams 8 years in a row to go to the Finals :heh:


How could you put his team in the West but then still have all the same teams in the West too? That's just stacking one conference with all the best teams, of course that conference is going to look more difficult.

A far more meaningful way to do it is to switch LeBron's ECF winning team with the WCF winning team, and see if both of them would still run their conferences like they did.

in 2015 the East only had 5 teams with winning records in the playoffs. 6th seed was .500 and 7th/8th seed had losing records :dead: while the West had a 45 win team miss

Why do those teams even matter when those aren't the squads Bron had to beat? :dahell:


The teams Bron actually played in the ECSF and ECF were the 52-win Bulls and the 61-win Hawks. And he beat them with Love and Kyrie injured. Meanwhile, the Warriors beat the 55-win Grizzlies with Conley and Allen both injured, and the 56-win Rockets with Pat Bev hurt and Harden setting new NBA records for incompetence.

Trying to claim that the Warriors had a tougher road in 2015 than the Cavs is either straight dishonesty or pure incompetence.

In 2009, Kobe's Lakers beat these Western conference teams:

  • Deron Williams led Jazz
  • Ron Artest led Rockets (and the series went 7 games :dead:)
  • Carmelo Anthony led Nuggets
Yeah Bron wouldn't beat any of these teams :mjlol:


They hate it when you name the squads involved. :laff:


Kobe had just 14-7-5 on 4-12 shooting in Game 7 against the Rockets and the Lakers still won by 20.....but the West was a bloodbath!


Houston's leading scorer in that game was Aaron Brooks with 13. :mjlol:

lefag lost to dwight howard those same po .

ha*

then kobe beat the magic!


LeBron averaged nearly 40-8-8 on 50% shooting against those Magic.

Kobe averaged 32-6-7 on 43% shooting against the same team.



Kobe's team won because Pau outplayed Dwight straight up and they had longer swingmen (Ariza, Odom, Walton) who could actually guard Orlando's shooters, not because Kobe played any better than LeBron.

Walton probably would have started for the Cavs against Orlando, considering how bad Varejao was getting beat on the perimeter. He was a mobile 6'8", he was the fourth man (after Odom, Kobe, and Ariza) that gave the Lakers flexibility to guard tall swingmen straight up all game. He's not ideally who you want starting of course, but he was a key piece for 15 minutes/game as a backup forward. Cavs meanwhile were forced to give those minutes to a washed Wally Szczerbiak who averaged 1.8 points on 21% shooting for the series with horrific defense.

Michael Brown was putting 6'3" Delonte West on 6'10" Turkoglu and slow ass Varejao on Rashard Lewis, and both of them were getting cooked all game, which repeatedly collapsed Cleveland's defense and forced everyone to scramble. While Lakers had the mobile height to stay in front of their men. That's why the Magic made 62 threes against the Cavs but only 38 threes against the Lakers.

Limiting Orlando's threes and Pau completely controlling Dwight inside are why the Lakers won the series.

Yall Kobe stans be making alternate realities. Kobe wasn't the only player to beat 4 straight 50+ win teams. You forgot a player who was greater than Kobe.

Hakeem Olajuwon who beat:
60 Win Utah Jazz
59 Win Phoenix Suns
62 Win San Antonio Spurs
57 Win Orlando Magic

He beat 4 57+ win teams in the same run and 2 60+ win teams. Kobe's 2010 Lakers beat 0 teams with 55+ wins.


They can't win on the facts so they resort to lies. Hakeem beat 4 different very good teams that were legitimate Finals contenders. Meanwhile, Kobe beat:

1. The baby Thunder who had won 23 games the previous year and never even been to the playoffs

2. The Deron-Boozer Jazz

3. A no-defense Suns squad that didn't even make the playoffs the year before or after

4. The Celtics who were up 3-2 on the Lakers until Perkins got hurt and the Lakers got massive rebound and free throw disparities the last two games.



THAT is supposedly the greatest playoff run? None of those teams were even considered serious contenders outside of the Celtics. The three West squads were low-50s win teams that any contender would have beaten.

Embarrassing and bitter as hell :sadcam:


You always say shyt like that when you have no argument.

Shaq dominated three straight Finals for the Lakers. Pau outplayed Dwight and Garnett in back-to-back Finals. THAT is why the Lakers won in the 2000s where the Boobie-Mo Cavs could not.

Sccit claims that Kobe's missed shots magically help his team more than Bron's made shots. That's pure delusion, sorry.
