kobe is right, but kobe has to think, that he had the honour to play with jackson and win his rings with him. and i think phil plays an important role in winning the rings.

same of course with duncan and popovic (and super stacked team).

if kobe is mad, what should DIRK be, or DURANT?

He should be jealous of LeBron. Having no less than 2 other HOFs for all of his rings. Playing in a historically shit Leastern Conference for his whole career.

[TheMarkMadsen]

he's played with Pop his entire career, Kobe had a lot of years with Phil (and made the most of them) while Kobe has had to go through some not so GOAT coaches..

exactly. in my opinion, you should remove at least 10.000 points from lebron or wade of their scoring-list, cause playing their whole career in the weak EC. more rest, easy points, super easy playoffs...damn heaven for all wild west players

[jstern]

Pop is so humble. I remember back in 1999 after winning the champion him completely taking the credit away from himself saying that any coach would have won it with Tim. And that stuck with me for years, that he was just a regular coach, until realizing that's not the case.

[JohnFreeman]

Shouldn't swallow the salary cap and then he could be competing for rings ever year

Don't forget the injuries too.

Kobe should be happy about how bad the East is, can you imagine his Finals 40% FG percentage? We should take off 10% off, and like 7 PPG to his average. And probably 3 rings.

Do you even rep a team man? I don't think I've ever seen you post about basketball unless it's to hate LeBron. I don't ever recall seeing you in Laker threads that weren't Kobe vs. LeBron threads

what is wrong. i was talking about the EC in general. i never said, that there wasn't always one good team in the east, reaching the finals and able to compete with the WCF champion. but they never had to go through the same tough playoffs and were way more rested. problem officer?

Just because the Conference is shit overall doesn't mean the top 1-2 teams are. 2010 Celtics are better than any team LeFraud has ever beat in the finals.* The 2000s Spurs in the midst of their dynasty with a prime Duncan is greater than any team LeBron has faced EVER.

Yeah, I'm a Bucks fan.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Duncan was in a terrific situation since his 1st year one of the luckiest players ever.
