How did Kobe elevate Andrew Bynum to become an NBA champion?

[superduper]

This dude was easily one of the most toxic and cancerous young upcomers as was demonstrated by his stints post Kobe such as when he was literally chucking up shots from ANY spot on the court he received the ball and his 0-11fg games where he visibly gave up with blatant on court tantrums.

If it wasn't for the winning culture Kobe instilled in him early on in his career he might have been out of the league in year 2 but Kobe allowed him to see the ways of winning and ultimately the much thrived after, golden promise land.

Unfortunately Bynum was much too immature and not that good without being spoonfed a free 15ppg from the greatest SG playmaker of all time.

HOW did Kobe elevate Bynum to such heights?

Discuss....

Kobe beat the Magic in 5 games with Bynum averaging 6 ppg 4 rpg on 36%FG as a starter

But I was told Kobe had a DOMINANT front court?

Emphasis on DOMINANT.

That's laughable. Bynum was a complete headcase but Kobe got him to play hard for us, we saw what happened once he got traded.

Kobe pre Gasol

2005 - misses playoffs

2006 - barely makes the playoffs and chokes a 3-1 lead in the 1st round

2007 - swept in the 1st round


Kobe with Gasol

2008 - finals

2009 - Championship

2010 - Championship



Guess who led the Lakers in both plus minus and win shares in both 09 and 10?






Gasol transformed a team from first round fodder into championship caliber if that is not superstar caliber i don't know what is

Let's not forget who closed out the Celtics in game 7

The Bransgender species are quite hilarious when they try to analyze basketball

They'll say a 32-6-6 playoff run is a free gifted ring that doesn't count but then turn around and say that 18-10 is FMVP.

Can't make Brantard logic up tbh

They certainly weren’t up because of Clangbe

6-24

Durant also said Kobe is 2nd all time

Choose wisely Bransexuals....

18/10 is FMVP but Irving averaged over 25 ppg for the 2016 title run with 27 ppg in the Finals, including scoring 41 in elimination + hitting he game-winner in Game 7.

Pau Gasol had ZERO 30+ pt games past the second round of the Playoffs in those 3 Finals runs.

You mean how he got injured and missed the entire 2013 season and then was just a shell of what he had been in 2012 after that? Yeah, that was all about leaving Kobe.
