Depends on where it is.
If LA takes place of NYC then as many as David Stern wants.
If LA takes place of Boston or a small market like Charlotte, then 0, Stern hates them all.

how the hell would any of it change? They'd still lose to whoever beat them in the West that year in the finals if they make it there.
also would probably have less finals trips because they'd still lose in the ECF to whoever beat them in the finals the years they lost
stupid thread.
[QUOTE=kennethgriffin]we have to consider the fact that upsets happen. and a free pass to the finals every year would mean beating better teams atleast 2 out of 6 times
so
1999 - 2nd round
2000 - 2nd round
2001 - ECF
2002 - finals ( win )
2003 - finals ( might win)
2004 - ECF
2006 - ECF
2007 - 2nd round
2008 - ECF
2009 - 2nd round
2010 - ECF
2011 - 2nd round
2012 - 2nd round
we'd have to assume kobe would have made 1-2 finals.
and we'd also have to assume he lucks out atleast 1 of 02/03
giving him 7 titles[/QUOTE]
FTFY.
2 Finals. He'd probably win 1 or luck out and win 2.
Do you honestly think that the '11 and '12 Lakers would've beaten the '11 and '12 Heat? Delusional.

same with boston in 2008
but then again kenneth is very special
op is a retard
lmao how it would be any different? kobe usually loses to a top seed in the west so he'll lose to the WCF winner anyways, and no way in hell would Kobe's LA would go past the Pistons, the Celtics or even the Heat
Didn't Kobe play his worst against Eastern Conference contenders? That's why he was at his worst in the Finals. No?

Yeah, I missed that one.
He'd make The finals damn near every year, that's for sure.
