    Ok... if you want to play that game.

    Pau Gasol playoff statistics without Kobe..

    0-16.



    Shaqs playoff success outside of Kobe<Kobes playoff success outside of Shaq


    Jordan without Pippen in series is 1-9 if I recall correctly.

    Jordan was rep[laced with pete myers and his team only lost 2 less games.


    There are thousands of other examples. Using regular season win losses, with or without a certain player can be construed to manipulate arguments for any angle you wish to take.

    But when a player (doesn't matter who) makes an all defensive team without evidence to back it up. The notion doesn't mean anything in reality in my opinion.

    At some point...what is actually happening on the court and perception have to map. If not...I'll go with reality rather than confirmation bias.
    Soo....Media votes for MVP, that's legit....Media votes for All NBA its not legit...Actually Head coaches vote for All Defensive team, not legit?

    Or is it just that some ppl don't like Kobe, so their agenda picks and chooses wats important?

    Who, exactly, are you exposing?

    And if you're lumping me and DMAVS in with silkk and Tony, you've got problems. There's a noticeable difference in our arguments/beliefs and their blatant trollish arguments.

    No. I don't think any of it is legit unless it maps with reality and what happens on the court.

    I don't care if Phil Jackson says Dwight Howard is better than Lebron (which he kind of did in an interview with Dan Patrick when he said he'd take Howard over Lebron)....he's just objectively wrong and it doesn't map with reality and what happens on the court.

    The evidence has to back the shit up. And, of course, Kobe's all defensive selections don't map with reality. That is the point.

    But I've never been in favor of using such highly subjective things like that as more than just icing on the cake in arguments. They mean very little imo and that has nothing to do with Kobe. It has to do with the nature of the awards.

    Why are these responses directed towards me? Did I make the claim? Nope.

    But even then...I think you are confusing arguments. But I dont' really care.

    Heavincent and tpols are both Nets fans defending Kobe. As long as there on Kobe side, it's cool. If you root for another team and are against Kobe, something ain't right ?

    Gasol, Odom, Ariza, Bynum, and Fisher

    Gasol, Odom, Artest, Bynum and Fisher

    Was absolutely in 2009 and 2010 relative to competition a nice well rounded roster that fit their superstar, almost perfectly.

    Are they considered stacked like the 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 Celtics? I don't think so.

    Are they near as top heavy talented as the 2011 Heat? No.

    Are they as talented and stacked as the 2012 and 2013 Heat? No.

    But relative to the league in those seasons, they weren't some averaging supporting cast either.
