did i ever say kobe wins regardless of who is on his team? no i didn't. yes kobe needed shaq, but shaq also needed kobe.
o and like i said 46 people in finals history have scored 40 points in one game, so yes that is an acheivement, people hated wilt cause he shot to much, you going to take away his 100 point game just because he was jacking shots from everywhere?
and again 74 times kobe has scored 30+ that puts him 4th all time in playoff history. its ignorant to ignore that, and yet stick to saying guys who are below him, a la shaq are better.
im trying to not look like the biggest kobe supporter here, but you use excuses like kobe jacked to many shots or the magic played horrible, yes you maybe right on both accounts, but give credit where its due, kobe could take 30+ shots in a game, he also had 8 boards and 8 asts, so its not like he was just shooting. and the lakers defense was the reason the magic played horrible, the magic missed shots but a lot of the times it was because of good defense.
gosh stop hating on a guy because you simply don't like him off the court or you don't like the way he plays. a lot of people didn't and still don't like jordan cause he got away with cheap stuff, guess what though they still admit he was the greatest to play, so give credit where its due
