I think that sums it up pretty well!:yelwink2: I just think some think those Chicago Bulls teams were better than they really were, time can do that!
You just listed them, seriously some of those players aren't as bad as you make them out to be. I'm still trying to figure out which players that played for the bulls other than about three that were better than any of these Laker players!:lol: :grin: I don't see Odom on your list btw. The truth of the matter is Kobe is no MJ, he has proven that already since he thought he could win a championship by himself, meaning without Shaq.
:rofl: :rofl: I didn't list Odom, since I had already discussed him at length. Depends on which Bulls team. Early Bulls run, I would take Horace Grant, BJ Armstrong, and the center combo over any of the other guys on the Lakers after Kobe and Odom. Later Bulls team -- Kukoc, Harper, Rodman, Kerr, and probably Luc Longley. OF COURSE KOBE ISN'T MJ! NOBODY IS ARGUING ABOUT THAT! In that vein, I'll go on record as saying that Odom is no Karl Malone. And Kwame is no Bill Russell, and Smush Parker is definitely no Oscar Robertson or even Oscar Meyer.
I was just trying to save my butt!:lol: Agreed:thumb: I'd take any of the current Lakers over these guys except Kerr. The rest irratated me, Longley to slow, Rodman a personal liability, timebomb and basketball liability except for rebounding. Maybe not but I think everyone has missed my point then. The point in being that MJ won championships with maybe a slightly better team than the current Laker team and Kobe can't get them to the playoffs. He thought he was the greatest since MJ I guess? Keep in mind people down play the Kobe Shaq situation, I'm not saying its all Kobe either, I don't know. What I am saying is that it happened and Kobe did want to be the star and he isn't even good enough to get this team to the playoffs! :rofl: Thats rather obvious!:rofl: :thumb:
Fair enough...other than the fact that the Lakers have made the playoffs the last two years -- in the tougher conference. The year after Shaq left, they had Rudy T as the coach and an even worse roster.
