Kobe wasn’t being labeled “by far the best player on the planet” in 2011.So logging alot of minutes does affect your game. Do we apply that to LeBron.
Why isn't Kobe's 2004 Finals against the pistons talked about like Bron's dallas series is?

Hmmm ok
Next question
When was was Kobe EVER labeled
“by far the best player on the planet”
Honestly I can't even blame you. The media never talks about it and 99% of the videos on Youtube have been deleted to protect the Lakers. It's hard to even find footage of it. They only talk about the Finals. Matter of fact someone even found the footage of SAS on Cold Pizza I think giving Kobe a complete pass when Dallas swept him and then going IN on Bron when he lost. Someone on here will find it
Kobe was on one knee that whole series. He wasnt till till he got that prp injection for next season. He even said as much when they were thinking bout bringing phil back. On some i wasnt able to give phil my all in his last year.

It's like swept under the rug, like it never happened. Shaq was going to win another Finals MVP and Kobe wasn't having it. Dude shot them out of every single game with his chucking mentality. We all know about what happened in Denver, but this guy wouldn't allow Shaq to be great. It's like every time Shaq scored it made him more angry. All they had to do was keep feeding the big man. A guy like Demar Derozan wouldn't have had an ego like this.
Because he was actually trying to win and shooting not being a passive bytch
no actually that was phil's fault. Gp and phil never saw eye to eye. because GP didnt know the triangle well enough. Phil wanted GP to be fisher. stand in the corner and swing the ball around. GP was like "yall just lost last year doing that, you need some guys that are a bit more dynamic at PG and PF." GP was correct. no one remembers Billups saying it was sad to be balling like he was but not have his idol(GP) go back at him because he was clamped down by the system. this came out of billups' own mouth. Phil messed gp up. so now we have a lame duck GP, a lame duck Hurt malone, Fisher has a bruised knee, and kobe is getting hacked for no calls.
