I'm done. I woulda left it at Monta Ellis Lite.
Trying to discuss Kobe with Bolton is like trying to discuss Obama with Hannity. I've learned the irrational hatred runs too deep.
They went to three straight nba finals. Lost to one of the best defensive teams in nba history and came back to beat them in 10 with a hobbled bynum and breaking down kobe. The so called weak orlando team beat Celtics(without kg) and the 60 win lebron teams. But let's look back to the previous back to back winner, kobe/shaq. They beat Nets/phili/indiana. Do you want to call those weak? Please.

The difference between Pau/Kobe Lakers and Shaq/Kobe Lakers was Shaq. His Lakers squad was dominant because he was arguable the most dominant force in NBA history.
Also Vagh,
Would Hannity rank Obama as an all time great Pres like I do for Kobe?
So the lakers teams championships were weak because they didn't have a dominant player? Are you kidding me? And don't back track here. You said the lakers and miami teams would have the weakest back to back championships while lebron has the most dominant team in history.
Name a weaker back-to-back champion than the Lakers.
Sigh. I'm not even gonna start with you.

How many back to back championship teams do you have? Houston? Yeah, houston rockets.
97-98 Jazz were easy road kill.
This is what you said smarty pants. Shaq lakers beat Philly(iverson), nets(kidd), and Indiana(oldreggie)
I believe there are about 10 of them, at least with different core players.
Yes, the Lakers were the weakest.

Yes? And I also said that the Heat will he the weakest if they win because of Wade being injured and the rest of the team not being too deep but that its a testament to how great LeBron has come. The Lakers won with more than the Heat are but neither was/is deep.
Utah would have been the weakest if they deserved to be there at all.

Why are you going after Utah? Its been 15 years. Doubt the fans are as affected by it at this point as much as the detractors are.
Nah, they aren't affected cause we desensitized there asses on our way to those two chips.
While I Agree that outside of Kobe the rest of the team was weak. No sure fire hall of Famers (maybe one with Pau). That team would carve up the East that Lebron has gone through and the 11 Mavs and 12 Thunder as well as be the favorites against The Spurs (they beat 08 Spurs 4-1).
I view that as a testament to Kobe's greatness but being as he's Monta Ellis light and Lebron is Jesus reincarnated...that can't be it.

Has any team ever had such an easy road to the Finals as the Heat have these past two years? Celtics breaking down, Chicago without their best player, no other team really worth a shit. I'd love to see them run the Western gauntlet.
Kobe's 08-10 Lakers at least beat some pretty good teams en route to their Finals appearances.
Duncan's Spurs in every Finals appearance beat a better team than any Miami EC opponent of the last three years.

No way man the Bucks this year were stronger than any team the 90s Bulls faced. This Heat team is miles ahead of any other squad put together.

Yeah but come game time he passes it to Bosh for a bricked wide open 3.

Nope. He's made 65 posts with the word "kobe" in them. He has 135 posts.
Literally, half of his posts have the word "Kobe" in it.
I leave for a few months and you finally admit it
and that doesn't even include the ones that imply kobe
Yes, my hate for the heat is unquestionable.
Yes we know you have demonstrated your lack of basketball knowledge, show us another side.

Going back was so easy, the 5pur5 could do it...oh wait.
Defending a title isn't easy bro.
Hell, winning a title isn't easy, but as a Jazz fan, you already know that.

Last four months LBJ:
bitched about Kirk Hinrich fouling him too hard
said if flopping gave him a competitive advantage, he was gunna do it
said the reason for MIA's lack of production in the fourth quarter of G1 on Thursday was cause they were tired from the Pacer series.
a champion doesnt get up on the podium and use fatigue as excuse for a loss. fuck outta here
What bitch assery. Never mind Jordan, this dude is not even cut from Kobe's cloth.

Said champion also pulled himself to start the 4th, in the Finals, during a close game.
He stated he's used to getting a blow to start the 4th...
THIS IS THE FINALS, MOFO. REST IN JULY.
Jordan would never do some shit like that.

Brings up a good point...
Why is there some weird obsession coin a "The _____ Game" for today's players?
Jordan played with the flu, mostly because he was borderline insane.
It's not some checkbox to show you are awesome and "about winning"...

Don't forget about going along with the media in throwing his Cavs teammates under the bus. "Reminds me of my Cleveland days."
You know it bro.
getting 700+ on timed predictive practice exams and 3 months to go till the exam.
