Do you think Kobe could've won a championship

Why do people act like the game 7 against the suns in 06 never happened?

Brah, only Kobetards ignore that beautiful fact, pretending it didn't exist.

[SilkkTheShocker]

Kobe quit in game 7 of the 06 playoffs.

[DMAVS41]

I dont think Kobe couldve gone far with this team, or at least farther then Lebron did. But Kobe wouldn't have quit in 2010, he would've at least tried. But the problem with that Cavs team is that it was built for Lebron James not Kobe bryant. Kobe is not the passer Lebron is.

What happened to that Cavs team is that they needed another player that could shoot or defend better in the post.

And why do people pretend like Bynum was such a factor when he played like ten minutes per game in both championship season? It was pretty much Odom who wasn't even a good defender coming off the bench and Gasol while a great player is not a superstar like Lebron stans say he is.

Why did Kobe quit in 2006 then?

Why do people act like 6 games before that never happened?
Kobe tried to use the tactic that brought them back where he hit that game-tieing and later game-winning shot. That game-tieing shot was the 1st or 2n shot of the 4th quarter for kobe, and they were down in that game too, so they managed to comeback with kobe playing as a decoy.
He later on scored 50 points in a loss just to realize that high scoring from him doesn't phase the suns.
Lakers tried to comeback with the same tactic in game 7. Kobe still played good in first three quarters, he had 20 something points with 50+FG%. And they were down 20+, so it's not like his aggresive play could've saved them, when the only tactic that worked in comebacks in that series was him being a decoy and not shooting that much

[Xiao Yao You]

Is Phil the coach in the scenario because Kobe has won nothing without him.

Still doesn't change the fact that Kobe did exactly what you claim and others claim he'd never do.

Never ceases to amaze me.

And Kobe's play in that series for a superstar was good, but hardly great. Please don't act otherwise because it's just not true.

[Anaximandro1]

there isn't a single player in nba history that could have won with cleveland.

Olajuwon and Duncan led championship teams in pts,rb,as and blk

peak Olajuwon or Duncan + Mo Williams,Delonte West,Gibson,Pavlovic,Wally,Joe Smith,Big Z and Varejao could have been enough to win a title

Did Kobe stop playing defense in that game? Did he stop facilitating? No, nor he had many turnovers in the 4th or the whole game.

He clearly quit in the 2nd half...and was sending a message. Do we really have to debate this?

Do people think something less than a decade ago is just going to be forgotten or not properly remembered.

Kobe quit in the 2nd half...plain and simple.

So acting like Kobe would never pull what Lebron did in game 5 in 2010 is not a valid argument at all.

[Bandito]

Why did Kobe quit in 2006 then?

He was sending a message to Phil that him passing was no way to win a championship.

And he proved him right.


**** if I know what he quit. Who am I his conscience? But don't compare 2006 with 2010 either, the team Lebron had was better than 06 Lakers by a lot.

[LEFT4DEAD]

Kobe would have a hard time to lead that Cavs' team into the playoffs, let alone to lead them so deep as Lebron did year after year.

[lebeast666]

Good one OP

[TheReturn]

No even as a Kobe fan...nobody could with those rosters in 07 and 09. Lebron averaged 38,8 and 8 and still lost in 09 that says it all.

Even now on paper, the lakers are better than the maimi

[pegasus]

They would have made it to the ECF every single year, and I'm sure they would have won at least one chip.
