Re: In response to Bill Simmons' recent article
This is an opinion and can't be proven either way.
I personally feel that Kobe has made it to the finals 6 times because of great teams, and of being a great player, and that Shaq wouldn't have made it to the Finals any of those times without Kobe.Comment

Re: In response to Bill Simmons' recent article
also on kobe making his teammates better, yeah he helped out ariza become a better three point shooter but the article states that no one gets more out of their teammates then kobe does. that right there is so riduclous what does he have what evidence does he have to support that? none.Comment

Re: In response to Bill Simmons' recent article
Nash does the same as well
Lebron took a team to the finals that had no right being there and it showed.
Shaq can turn a player from a good player to a really good player.
that's just off the top of my head.Comment

Brown, Kwame
Bynum, Andrew
Cook, Brian
Evans, Maurice
Farmar, Jordan(rookie)
McKie, Aaron(old)
Mihm, Chris(DNP)
Parker, Smush
Radmanovic, Vladimir
Turiaf, Ronny(first full nba season after heart surgery)
Vujacic, Sasha
Walton, Luke
Williams, Shammond
Not only is this a collection of scrubs, but the ones that weren't rookies and contract fodder were injured, as were Kobe and Lamar that year. So it's a sad, sad reach to use the 42-40 overachieving, injury riddled ragtag 06/07 Lakers as some kind of proof for whatever ***** point you're trying to make about Kobe Bryant.
So far, the rest of the NBA hasn't had any success in making the scrubs in bold any better.Comment

Re: In response to Bill Simmons' recent article
none? j kidd makes players like mikki moore get contracts that otherwise they would of not gotten.
Nash does the same as well
Lebron took a team to the finals that had no right being there and it showed.
Shaq can turn a player from a good player to a really good player.
that's just off the top of my head.
Why don't you read what's said here thoroughly first, before spouting out nonsense. The question was about Kobe, not about Kidd, Nash, Lebron, or Shaq.
Not sure what nonsense you're trying to make w/that '06 Lakers roster but, that roster was full of inexperience & trash, but yet he led them to the playoffs. Take Kobe off that team, & they're quite possibly the worst in the league. He got the most out of trash like Kwame, BCook, & Smush.Comment

Re: In response to Bill Simmons' recent article
No one nor did the article, dispute any of those players you mentioned, ability to make others around them better, but you keep being ignorant to the fact that Kobe did indeed make his teammates around him better as well. Maybe I wouldn't go to the extreme to say that no one does it(make his teammates better) better than Kobe but, you can't discredit the fact that he did make others around him better. Saying that Kidd, Nash, Lebron, or Shaq made their teammates better, does not prove that Kobe didn't.

Re: In response to Bill Simmons' recent article
I don't know why any of you guys are even bothering with responding to Kash.
Do you really think you're going to be able to convince him of anything?
