June 22, 201313 yr Author It's not a Kobe vs LeBron thing. Neither team matches up well with the other because of style. If the Lakers would ride Bynum I'd pick them, but you know they wouldn't do that. That's the only true advantage they'd have and I don't think they'd use it. Miami's bench is better. A lot better. Right. When the Lakers beat Orlando Pau was better than Howard in that series and Bynum was coming off the bench but they wouldn't use that to their advantage against Bosh/Haslem/Battier/Anderson........ Come on now, Cats...:lol: The LA frontline beat Garnett/Perkins/Howard but they can't beat Haslem/Bosh/Anderson/Battier? Pass the pipe. :lol:
June 22, 201313 yr So back to the thread question, LeBrons legacy. Is LeBron winning two titles with inferior teams more impressive than Kobe winning two with much better teams?
June 22, 201313 yr So back to the thread question' date=' LeBrons legacy. Is LeBron winning two titles with inferior teams more impressive than Kobe winning two with much better teams?[/quote'] I'd say no better, no worst. The main thing is two titles to two titles, and two finals MVPs to two finals MVP's. With the other hardware Lebron can win I think four titles for him would land the better legacy than Kobe. In other words I don't think Lebron has to win as many or more to be an equal or superior to Kobe. Another important thing Lebron has in his favor in comparing Kobe's shaq less Lakers titles and Lebrons two titles is this. There's only been two times in the Finals the MVP has averaged 25, 10, & 7. Lebron last year, Lebron this year. Pretty impressive. Two triple doubles out of seven games in this Finals isn't bad either. Especially when you consider many felt games 2-5 were horrible games for him.
