Why did Shaq get swept by 3 white mailmen?

Does that mean Kobe carried the 3-peat Lakers?

Kobe is like Pippen and Shaq is like MJ.

Once KoPippen because serviceable and even an allstar, peak shaq three-peated.

So you need a Pippen to not get swept by Biff Tannen?

Shaq's biggest rival = Biff Tannen
MJ's biggest rival = Larry Bird

Wow Shaq really was a loser before Kobe

I just cannot believe it.

Shaq got swept by Biff Tannen, even if Biff brought his math teacher (Hornacek) and his pastor (Stockton).

Just embarassing for Shaq in all kinds of ways.

How did the MDE, during his absolutely summit peak, get outplayed by a 21 year old shooting guard on his same team during the playoffs of 01?

I dont know.

Shaq couldn't win until Kobe and even when Shaq won, it was when there wasn't single serviceable center left, even when just the shell of D-Rob was still kicking they won it all and Shaq couldn't.

The truth is that Shaq couldn't get it done when facing someone his own size, like Rik Smits or Ostertag or Yao Ming.

This really elevates Kobe in the rankings.

Shaq needed someone to:

-Be the playmaker
-Be the main defender
-Be the vocal leader
-Be the on court leader
-Hit all of the clutch and high pressure shots

And that is okay.

Big knock on his career was how much he got swept: 94, 95, 96, 98, 99, 07

Do you know what was behind that?

An inability to adapt.

Shaq basically had no counter if a big body could push him 3 feet out on the block.

Yep, like Karl Malone needed Stockton and Lebron needed Wade.
