LeBron’s quest to match Magic and Kobe

[WhiteKyrie]

Will LeBron get to his fifth ring in LA, even with his very talented, albeit old rosters? Playing for the purple and gold, it’s obviously going to be difficult for him to match the ring count of the two most beloved and iconic Lakers of all time’s ring count. And then if he ever matches them, how long until he can match Jordan?

Maybe if you give him peak Shaq, something Kobe had the benefit of playing with.

I mean he’s had his fair share of talent, even if he didn’t play with prime Shaq.

He has had two rosters where he manipulated having 2 perennial all stars and future Hall of Famer‘s on his team by his side in their prime. And if we are being honest is almost the same as having Shaq on your team.

He manipulated prime Anthony Davis (3rd best player ever based on PER) to the Lakers, and now has former MVP and reigning all-time triple double champ in Westbrick.

Excuses are for losers.

LeBron was never carried unlike Kobe.

LeBron ruined coach’s life when he surpassed Jordan

[Hey Yo]

LeBron was the best player on all 4 of his titles.

Magic and Kobe??....... not so much.

Hopefully he has plenty of gas left in the tank than Wizards Jordan. Lebron needs to play like Magic James ala 2020 LeBron. Lakers have plenty of good offensive players in their roster.

All you are doing is making excuses, lebron had just as much help if not more, than kobe

What excuses?

There doesn't need to be an excuse for this.

You can compare any random set of players with rings, it makes no sense.

There needs to be a base.

Why could MJ not match Russell?

Excuses are for losers, right?

No one ****ing cares.

LeBron is rank higher than Kobe. He has more Finals MVP, More MVP's, More points in the regular season, playoffs and NBA Finals.

Typical clowns replying and leaving a bloody tampon of whining, complaints and excuse making. Will they make it to the playoffs this year? LeBron is already only 2 for 4 in that regard in his time in LA. And in one of those got bounced in the first round with a series lead

That ring argument was the reason why LeBron went to Miami. Kobe won an nba championship averaging 15 ppg in the 2000 NBA Finals. In hindsight LeBron was always in a much better situation than Kobe. He won his first NBA title as the numero uno scoring option for his team.

Why couldn’t MJ win as much as the real GOAT Bill Russell? He didn’t even get close. No excuses

He won a title at age 35 with the Lakers, Kobe at that age was pretty much done as a player, had a horrific 37 fg% from ages 35-37 and led the Lakers to a 17-65 record when he was LeBron's current age.

And you have to audacity to shit on LeBron while ignoring this fact about Kobe, which is way more embarrassing.

I'd love to see OP actually adress this instead of bickering about "excuses".
