harveycmd Posted May 23 Posted May 23 Hug it, Mavs. All time Lakers by position against anything every other NBA franchise could possibly muster. Point Guard: Magic Johnson (greatest point ever) 6' 9" Never been another 6' 9" point. Just imagine Magic and Kobe in the same backcourt Shooting Guard: Kobe Bryant (second greatest shooting guard ever, but my favorite) 6' 6" greatest competitor ever Small Forward: LeBrick James (greatest small forward ever) 6' 8" overrated but still best 3 Power Forward: Robert Horry (weakest position for the Lakers, fundamentally sound) 6' 10" Center: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (greatest player ever) 7' 2" Bench: Jerry West, Wilt Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor, Shaq, Gail Goodrich, James Worthy, Michael Cooper) Fat boy Luka obviously doesn't make the list. 1 Quote
harveycmd Posted May 23 Posted May 23 (edited) Gotta admit that Magic is the most amazing. How can you be 6'9" and be the best point guard ever? Best passer ever by a long shot. Could literally pass one handed off the dribble 70 feet. Edited May 23 by harveycmd 1 Quote
harveycmd Posted May 25 Posted May 25 Blocked. Mentioned this before. 19 May 2001. Game one WCF. Lakers v Spurs. Kobe goes for 45. Youngest but player in the game. Before the game, Stu Lantz asked Kobe what he was listening to. Kobe said, "AC/DC, Back in Black." Stu asked, "Why not rap?" Kobe said, "Man, that's real rap." 1 Quote
harveycmd Posted yesterday at 02:43 PM Posted yesterday at 02:43 PM Greatest game in the history of the NBA. June 1985. Lakers first team to beat the Celtics on their home floor to win the title. Quote

harveycmd Posted yesterday at 03:55 PM Posted yesterday at 03:55 PM Magic was 25. Only starter older than him was Kareem. He was 38 and still the best when it counted. Quote
harveycmd Posted yesterday at 04:13 PM Posted yesterday at 04:13 PM Going back to October 1973. Kissinger in Moscow during the Yom Kippur War. History of the world in the balance. We won the showdown. Die cast. Won the Cold War sixteen years later. Nothing Compares. Quote
harveycmd Posted yesterday at 05:06 PM Posted yesterday at 05:06 PM (edited) 1982 pre-figured Kobe 1999. Sankey SEC crap doesn't compare. Two thousand zero zero was the Kobe year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rblt2EtFfC4 Edited yesterday at 05:10 PM by harveycmd Quote
