Re: If the city of LA was in the east coast
[QUOTE=HOoopCityJones]You clutch on to those to two highly touted defensive squads who weren't even a factor beyond 3 very good years. There were more Teams who made the Finals out East aside from two Teams ya know, and trust me Kobe would've torched every single one of them just as much as Lebron could, it's hilarious you're even trying to make this argument.
Yet all you rest your hat on is the only two Teams Kobe lost to in a Finals, what about the other 5 trips jack ass? :facepalm[/QUOTE]
Didn't I say he'd had the same ring count? That's it, like I said in my first post, nothing would change, just a little more loses in the finals probably

>Kobe would've torched those teams
>forgets Kobe had his worst shooting games against them
Ok

1999- Finals(lose)
2000-2002- Titles(Possibly 2001 FMVP)
2003- Finals(lose)
2004 ECF
2005-2006- Doesn't get past 2nd round
2007- Maybe a Finals Appearance?
2008- ECF
2009- Title
2010- Title
2011-2013- Doesn't get past ECF/2nd Round
Career would look mostly the same with a Few more Finals losses.
Re: If the city of LA was in the east coast
for the idiots that keep quoting me
2004 - malones healthy in the ECF ( and 2-3-2 series screwed LA )
2008 - no 2-3-2 either... game 6 would have been in LA instead of boston
Re: If the city of LA was in the east coast
[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 - finals
2000 - finals ( win )
2001 - finals ( win )
2002 - finals ( win )
2003 - finals
[B]2004 - finals [/B]
2006 - ECF
2007 - 2nd round
[B]2008 - finals [/B]
2009 - finals ( win )
2010 - finals ( win )
[B]2011 - finals
2012 - finals [/B]
we'd have to assume kobe would have made 11 finals.
and we'd also have to assume he lucks out atleast 2 of 99/03/04/08/11/12
giving him 7 titles[/QUOTE]

Re: If the city of LA was in the east coast
He would have 5 championships, if he still had Shaq, Gasol, etc. Going up against the same teams that they beat and that beat them.
But then again, considering that Kobe is not that great of a Finals performer, they would probably only win or two, with the diminished performance. Would cost Shaq some championships, considering how Kobe performs in the Finals.
