Re: #apples2oranges
Hate it or love it, KB has a point.
If mike came in the league out of HS and was playing with the most dominant force ever and played in Phil's system,
And
Kobe came in after playing college ball and had great players and a great system (similar to 09/10) and his whole career he played with someone of SP level along with a great supporting cast
It would be different. Nobody is saying kobe would be better or anything. I'm not saying that, simply saying that it would be different.
Let's be real, an 18 yr out of HS would be shaqs #2 option too.
Look at Kobe's numbers on those 3 peats. Compare them to the numbers he put them as a #1 option. Imagine if M was sharing the ball with shaq.
So he has a point. In terms of careers, apples and oranges.
You don't know if playing with shaq made a positive, negative, or neutral impact on Kobe's career/talent and to what extent the same way we don't know what playing in M's situation would have done for Kb

Shaq was still the best player in all 3 championships.

Then it gets to the point of which players can we compare? No one?

Yes, because being carried to those 3 championships severely damaged Kobe's legacy.

That doesn't mean he was carried. Kobe was the best player in two very important series vs the Spurs.

Shaq is the reason why Kobetards can say "5 ringz!!!" and make moronic Jordan comparisons.
Kobe and his fanbase are ungrateful SOB's.

Re: #apples2oranges
That may be but facts are still facts:
Jordan = 6 rings on 6 finals appearances
Kobe = 5 rings on 7 finals appearances
Jordan = 6 FMVP on 6 finals appearances
Kobe = 2 FMVP on 7 finals appearances
No apples to oranges there... just pure facts.
