Soo.. If Kobe didn't play for the Lakers, would they had one last years finals? and the year before? :eyeroll:

Kobe paid his dues. After Shaq left they were awful. I remember at one time, Vujacic, Radmanovic, and Kwame Brown were starting! They team was by far worse than any team Lebron played on. Kobe still found a way to get them to the playoffs in the west. In the East they prob would have been a 5 seed that year. Memphis gives Pau to them as a gift basically, and we drafted Bynum and that has turned out well. Hopefully we can stay healthy!
