If LeBron teams up with Wade, Kobe's legacy can exceed Jordan's
I honestly would become a Kobe fan. Dude would seriously have the opportunity to be the GOAT while simultaneously taking a fat shat on LeBron's career in the process.
To think a LeBron would go from a GOAT candidate to piggy-backing Wade's only career team and failing is a rather enticing thought to consider.
And to think Kobe close to his mid-30's could make this a reality is as ironic as it is iconic. A Wade/Bron tandem would be more dynamic than anything Jordan faced. Two wins against them in the Finals would cement Kobe as the GOAT, IMO.

PB makes a decent point. If Bron and Wade team up, and Kobe wins in the finals against them, it would help his legacy a lot. Part of why Bird and Magic are considered this great is that they played and won against each other. Bird without Magic is only worth half as much.

No, I would be a fan of the Cavs team, fan of Kobe, the possible GOAT individually.

All three have a 0% chance of becoming the top player in league history.

GOAT candidates don't piggy-back.

Kobe certainly does under this scenario.

If Wade and LeBron team up they are arguaby one of the best 1-2 punch in NBA History.
I think they are going to win at least 3 NBA Championships in the next decade because Kobe, Garnett, Pierce, Dirk, Nash, and Duncan are not getting younger anymore.
Kobe needs at least 4 NBA Finals MVP and 4 NBA Regular Season MVP if he wants to be consider as a top 5 greatest player in NBA History.

Add Michael Beasley
Basketball is a team sports. Just look how talented the rosters of the Celtics and Lakers in the 1980's.
Nobody's going to criticize Wade and LeBron when they team up together because some of the most successful teams in NBA History have a very talented supporting casts.

Regular Season MVP means nothing

Dunking on everybody in the park
Re: If LeBron teams up with Wade, Kobe's legacy can exceed Jordan's
IF
Lebron and Wade team up
and IF
Kobe beats them two years running in the finals
Then yeah, it would improve his legacy I'd say
The same way IF
Steve Nash averages 15 assists for the rest of the year
IF
they go 73-9 with the pretty average team they have, winning his 3rd MVP and
IF
they win the title against the stacked lakers/magic/cavs/celtics teams
it will improve his chances of being GOAT PG
A lot of big IFs in both, anyone can post some random IF stuff like this
probably not thread worthy, should have just posted it in one of the many related theads already on the board

It's not...they don't give it to the best player in the league anymore. They come up with some sh*tty criteria about how it goes to the "best player on the best team". They award the guy who has good teammates over a guy who might be a better player but is stuck on a bad team. Nash winning 2 MVPs over Kobe and Shaq doesn't make him better than those two. And to top it off, the media gets to vote. So the # of regular season MVPs doesn't hold any value when placing players in the all time list.

Look at the history of the award, the MVP has never gone to a player on a bad/mediocre team. People who think Kobe deserved the MVP when he had that monster statline and only got 45 wins knows nothing about the history of the MVP award.
