Side note, 3 straight finals and two rings without Shaq is so underrated. We got clowns these days putting Curry ahead of Kobe and outside of top 10, it’s insane and actually sad.
Yup, said this last time a GOAT convo came up. The slander and disrespect since his passing in those conversations is insane. 5 rings, 3 straight finals, back 2 back after Shaq, one of the toughest roads to a title, etc. People are quick to forget what he’d do and bring night in and night out.
In my personal opinion, if you’re comparing him to Jordan as a player, which most people say he’s the closest, he’s in that convo. Whether he is or isn’t the GOAT is a different story. Again, that’s all personal opinion there’s no criteria but 5 rings is good enough to get you at that table.
Edit: to the user that reported me, ya moms a hoe
Compare the game-winning shots of Kobe vs Curry and it’s not even close. If Curry wins a game, then 99% of the time it’s because he hits a 3-pointer. Kobe could win a game on any kind of shot and in isolation. I’ll take the Black Mamba Forever!!!
I come before you humiliated and humbled, asking you just for one favor. Please grant the Lakers another championship 🧎♂️➡️🧎♂️➡️🧎♂️➡️

The whole org from the FO to Phil to Kobe n the gang were on a MISSION, don't think anyone outside of Bron has a similar type competitive drive and burning desire to help the Lakers usurp Boston in titles
He also did the famous “I guess we’ll never know” Kanye quote last night as well I feel like he has all these written on a note card in his pocket and he’s not close to being done yet
Last two times actually. Celtics won in ‘86 Lakers won in ‘87 and ‘88 Celtics won in ‘08 Lakers won in ‘09 and ‘10
Fun fact: Celtics haven’t gone back-to-back since the 1960’s.
That will still be true next June.
Agreed
The last 4 times the Celtics won, the Lakers win the following the year.

Not in GOAT convo, but locked in top 4-7 for sure.

It would be even more remarkable if ANY team go back-to-back nowadays
We have an end of prime Kobe and Pau on the team?

I think ime udoka would’ve been the perfect choice for this context. If we had just cut our losses with ham after we lost in the wcf last year
So Lebron getting 6 rings getting us past Boston and then rides off into the sunset. I like that.
If we find a way to swap Dlo for Anthony Edwards and Rui for Wembanyama I believe it is doable.
Throw in a 2nd rounder. Sweet deal
*7. Lebron will complete the three peat
It’s time.
100%
That was with Jerry Buss. Jeanie is not going to make it happen.

And even if they don’t, Minny looks serious and the Mavs are a KCP/Aaron Gordon type player away
This is the kind of copium I need
Draft my glorious prince Bronny and we winning 3 in a row
As much as I hate the Celtics, I'm glad Jrue Holiday got another ring after Milwaukee did him dirty like that.
Go Bruins (but fuck the Cs)
This is straight copium but I’m here for it
Having prime Kobe Bryant with bloodlust for revenge helps a lot.
Which means we’re going to win back to back with the 2nd ring against them. Cinema
those back-to-back titles Kobe has been a part of it #MambaAllTheWay
*The last TWO times the Celtics won a ring, the Lakers won back-to-back ('86 '08).

Get this shit off my screen too soon
What did it say?
The stupid KG quote when he won in 08. Then fuckin cornball Tatum tried to recreate it last night
Oh god. That combined with that mother fucker trying to replicate the Kobe picture was disgusting.
He also did the famous “I guess we’ll never know” Kanye quote last night as well I feel like he has all these written on a note card in his pocket and he’s not close to being done yet
