Re: Great article about why people hate Kobe
[QUOTE=Diesel J]Lberon has only been in [b]1 finals[/b] and he was the clear leader of that team while Kobe has been in [b]5 finals[/b]. For 4/5 of those, Kobe played second fiddle to the most unstoppable force in NBA history who had to be trippled teamed at times (check Shaq's Finals numbers, They're:eek: ) which means Kobe had tons of 1 on1 play and he still put bad FG%'s.
It's easy to have [i]a[/i] bad Finals series but [i]4/5[/i] bad ones with 4 of them, all you had to do was be a second fiddle and not the "the man" equals a [i]trend[/i][/QUOTE]
4/5 he avg over 22ppg. 4/5 as a Legit Side Kick. Won 3/5 Titles.
He only has 1 Finals where he was the Man, and thats a Choke. When you put his stats up as the Side Kick, it seems like you are counting that as him being the Leader. Just because Shaq is in the middle doesnt make him better as a indivisual Player.

[QUOTE=1~Gibson~1]while lebron had Larry "Im Injured" Hughes/Daniel "Rookie" Gibson
Sasha "slumping" Pavlovic
Drew "Inconsistent" Gooden
and
Big Z
not to mention the bench was horrible with or without him on the floor. LeBron played 1-on-5 and got killed as expected.[/QUOTE]
Yet he made the finals with the same supporting cast. Didn't Gibson beast against Detroit? Didn't Drew put up good numbers in all rounds and we all know Big Z is always gonna show up. Typical Cavs fans trying to put down there roster.
Re: Great article about why people hate Kobe
[QUOTE=Kobe24] Lebron had a terrible fg % against a team Kobe dominated in 5 games.[/quote]
Spurs? Lebron and Kobe didn't even face the same D because they're teams didn't have the offensive power. Lebron was shadowed/double/tripled because the Spurs forced him perimeter and was willing to see if other Cavs players could beat them. Last season in the Spurs/Lakers series, the Spurs plan was to play Kobe with single coverage and stay on everyone else and it backfired.
[quote]Fact of the matter is, Lebron is winless. Face it, he has more bronze medals than championships. :oldlol:[/QUOTE]
face it, Kobe has more first round exits (2nd round virgin lol) than championships as the leader of the Lakers:oldlol:
he better give gasol a check for getting him past the 2nd round virgin stage

and as i said Gooden is inconsistent
Z was the only consistent teammate lebron had.

Because you gotta make it seem like LeBron is the ultimate God, and carry's 2-time All-Star Big Z who is a Kwame Brown type player, to the Finals. And Gibson sucks, we all know that, lol, he had 0 to do with them getting to the Finals. :lol

Ooops. Pavlovic is basically a taller Smush Parker. Gibson sucks. Gooden? Josh Powell clone but worse. Lebron is the GOD despite getting carried in the ECF last year. One good game during a loss does not make up for the bad games he had.
Re: Great article about why people hate Kobe
This is why fanboys annoy me.
"Lebron was double and triple teamed while your favorite player had single coverage..."
"Kobe is the best perimeter player since Jordan..."
etc.
Kobe fans have been quiet recently, though with Lebron his fans are starting to me ridiculous comments. Seems like every fault the guy has is being blamed on his supporting cast.
A team that made the finals is bad?

They don't know what a terrible supporting cast is. Ask Wade this year, Ask Kobe in 05-06. That's a terrible supporting cast. You fan boys would kill yourselves if you had to watch teams like that.
Re: Great article about why people hate Kobe
Basically....Cavs win...Its all LeBron, by himself, Tarzan
Basically....Cavs lose..Its all because of his teamates
I understand now....:oldlol:
Same goes for Kobe stans to. IMO Kobe CHOKED like a biach in the 08 Finals.

**** off.
You didn't even watch the series.
You make it out as if Lebron was getting guarded by 5 players along with 2 supporters and a referee, while Kobe got free rides to the basket. :rolleyes:
Piss off with your agenda posts and come back when you see it how it is. The Spurs don't treat Lebron any more specially then they do Kobe, infact at the time they'd probably pay more attention to Kobe seeing as he was the best player in the game.
Re: Great article about why people hate Kobe
Does anybody care about why you hate Kobe Bryant? You hate him, good for you, stop talking about it...god these topics are just so damn stupid, doesn't even feel like a basketball forum.

Yes that team was bad. The starting backcourt was Eric Snow and Larry Hughes. Some of the role players (Gibson and Z) stepped up that year, but that team had no business even winning the East.
