Why isn't Kobe's 2004 Finals against the pistons talked about like Bron's dallas series is?

[Trece]

Kobe had 3 rings at the time of the Pistons series. LeBron had yet to win a ring at the time of the Mavs series.

The fact that you have to explain this

 

[BlaqkSpliffin]

GOATS don't get locked down. THEY ALWAYS FIND A WAY TO WIN. What happened?

Kobe got locked down by Tashaun Prince in his prime who made the olympic team basically on defense alone. LeBon got locked down by an elderly Shawn Marion and 5'8 JJ Barea and couldn't guard Jason Terry. shyt ain't the same and you know it. Also it shows how much LeBron choked because D-Wade was killing in that series and had they won he would have been Finals MVP easily.

 

[Rakim Allah]

If the Lakers would've passed the ball to shaq more they would've won. Shaq is the truth Kobe is a pretender.

Shaq was gassed by each 2nd half. He stopped working had to get to the opposite blocks/side of court were the ball was. It was the NBA Finals not Girls YWCA basketball with no shot clock.

TO PUT THE BLAME OF THAT SERIES ON ONE PERSON IS LAUGHABLE .. LIKE I SAID, THERE ARE BOOKS DETAILING THAT SHIIT (WHICH IVE READ), AND IT GOES FARRRR BEYOND BAD SHOOTING. THE NUMBER 1 FACTOR WAS POOR TEAM CHEMISTRY WIT MALONES INJURY BEING A CLOSE SECOND.. POOR CHEMISTRY CONTRIBUTED TO KOBE N SHAQS LACK OF TRUST IN EACHOTHER (KOBE ON OFFENSE, SHAQ ON DEFENSE)

Chauncey Billups said HIMSELF was Kobe's selfishness was their gameplan, and that he will try and get his and disrupt the offensive flow. fukk your book, the fukking Finals MVP trumps whatever some dude wrote down

And like someone else said, what's Shaq's PnR D gotta do with LAL only scoring 80

You sound like last season when every time the Cowboys lost and their offensive deficiency, it was because their fukking linebacker wasn't playing

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

As a Shaq stan

Just gonna come in and post up

Martha

I see what you did there

 

[Rakim Allah]

He had rape charge hanging over his head. That could of been his last NBA games for all he knew at the time.

UMMMM CHAUNCEY SAID HIMSELF THE PLAN WAS TO DISRUPT TEAM CHEMISTRY .... BOTH WAYS. BY ALLOWING SHAQ TO SCORE AND PUTTING THE FOCUS ON KOBE DEFENSIVELY. THAT WAY SHAQ WOULD ACTUALLY THINK HE WAS DOIN SOMETHIN AND EXPECT THE BALL DOWN EVERY TIME, WHILE ALSO NOT TRYING ON D BECAUSE HE GOT FOOLED INTO THINKIN HE WAS DOIN ENOUGH ON HIS END. SIMPLE SCIENCE.

ALSO, IF UR A TRUE BASKETBALL HEAD N NOT JUST READING STATS, U KNOW GOOD DEFENSE LEADS TO GOOD OFFENSE. ITS REALLY NOT DEBATABLE HOW MANY DIFFERENT FACTORS WENT INTO LAKERS TAKIN THAT L.

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

Karl Malone doesn't get hurt cuz fat ass Scott Williams falls his knee. Lakers easily win the title.

Kobe played like but that Malone injury and his beef with Shaq reached it's tipping point

All this. That’s a stark difference to hopping on Wade’s team with Bosh and proclaiming a multi title dynasty. GP and Malone were way past their primes when they joined Kobe and Shaq so that 04 team was much more name recognition than it was a real threat.

 

[HiphopRelated]

Kobe's failures have always been coated in a cum colored layer of fake machismo. They celebrated him still having the courage to take more bad shots when his other bad shots weren't falling. They celebrated him having the confidence and drive to try to do everything on his own even when it was detrimental to winning. Anything he did wrong was forgiven because it could be twisted into an alpha quality.

I remember him shooting like shyt against the heat and he did a post game shoot around for the cameras and suddenly the narrative was that he was more of a competitor than the guys who had just beaten him. His pull with the media is fukking legendary.

lmfao, I remember that shyt.

 

[bucks3115]

Yup. Kobe pissed me off with that shyt. But he learned from that misstep and brought home 2 mo rangz in return

bron learnt he brought 3 rings

 

[bucks3115]

WRONG AGAIN

DETROITS GAMEPLAN WAS TO LET SHAQ SCORE AND FOCUS ALL THEIR ENERGY ON KOBE

KOBE WAS FAR BETTER THAN SHAQ BY 2004 AND IT WASNT EVEN CLOSE

bytch ass jew cac

 

[King Poetic]

Because he was fighting for his life in Colorado and was constantly leaving the courthouse to Lakers practice

You so full of shyt. Nobody praised Kobe’s 04 Finals like it was some kind of heroic event.

Kobe is easily the most disrespected legend by the media, it’s not even close. Kobe’s 04 Finals usually gets brought up when LeBron is going through some shyt and getting criticized

 

[Jesus Is Lord]

Guy shot under 40% in a finals series. They want this fraud to be in the all time great conversation so bad.

They? You mean him? What does he know?

Why are you even responding to that idiot? He’s the worst old head poster up here. Most of us Kobe fans killed him on SOHH and AHH.
