FTFY, but your second statement is right on.

Re: ESPN Los Angeles : "Nobody wants to play with Kobe"
You know Larry Bird? One of the greatest to ever play the game? Ask him who he wishes he could have played with? Listen to the old timers and hall of famers and greatest to have ever played the game. Bet most say Kobe. Game recognizes game.

Hornets don't have Shaq, nor do they have anyone else like that. So that's 3 rings dead.
And Hornets don't get Pau Gasol for Kwame Brown.
0 rings.
Kobe 5
Miami 3

Oh yea he was. Just cause he didn't get the FMVP doesn't mean he wasn't a leader. He wasn't a role player for sure.

0 rings.
Hornets had:
Chandler
Paul
Baron
West
Stojakovic when he was still able to play in the playoffs
and now
Gordon
Unibrow
They had good teams, they were just a star away from winning.

Hornets never get into a position to draft Chris Paul via lottery if they have Kobe as a perennial treadmill team of 7th, 8th seed, or 9th place.
He'd have 0 rings. The Hornets don't have the power, nor the clout, to grab Pau for Kwame Brown, and no Shaq. The Hornets simply don't have the smarts like the Lakers front office. No shot at stacking a team for Kobe.
0 rings.
Kobe would have been forced to do things the LeBron way. Take your future into your own hands and leave the Hornets, or end up like KG in Minny.
If there was ever a player that was a product of an organization, it's Kobe.

We are playing with What If situations. Who knows who they would've sign that could've ended in a dynasty. Maybe Kobe would've played like 2006-2008 version of Kobe sooner and they get centers like Vlade and Campbell, and they still get Paul or Baron somehow. Maybe if they don't get them they get some other players like Iggy, Stojakovic, Parker, Gino, Camby or they get a deeper team that you can think of. That is why I don't like to play with What If scenarios. Just because he doesn't play with Shaq doesn't mean he don't win. It would be a different journey to get there for sure.

Bump for Dwight-cision confirming this.
Who wants 5 shots a game and get all the blame for the losses?
