@KalinBuggs@WhozMEECH I didn’t say Shaq was the number 1 in 04 lmao. I’m saying Kobe taking over as the number 1 is why they weren’t as successful. Shaq’s decline hurt them a lot. And Shaq averaged 26 on 62%. Ben averaged maybe like 2 more rebounds, that’s not that big of a gap
@KalinBuggs@WhozMEECH Shaq opened up the floor for Kobe, the spurs defense was fixated on Shaq. Shaq while getting less looks was outscoring Kobe in 04, point stands that Kobe being the number 1 wasn’t the key to their success. “Nobody played well” is a lie. Shaq played pretty well, Kobe didn’t
@KalinBuggs@WhozMEECH Kobe did his thing against the spurs, largely due to the attention Shaq was demanding from their defense, no lies about it. Shaq averaged more than Kobe on a higher shooting percentage while getting a lot less looks. Kobe most definitely takes most of the blame fam
@KalinBuggs@WhozMEECH Yea and he underperformed trying to be the number 1 that series. Shaq was lighting Ben Wallace up, they would’ve won sticking to that plan. And should the defense collapse by trying to close on Shaq, then they dish it out to Kobe. Worked on the spurs
@ApexJones22 Sure, the coward in denial per usual. Running like a hoe but expecting people to take you seriously lol. It’s over for you after doing that weak ish
@kzcvr2hkpdd @writtenbytron @shendy456 Shaq opened up the floor for Kobe, he wouldn’t have gotten an opportunity like that with any other player. Lebron had to earn 4 championships as the number 1 guy, he couldn’t afford to take a backseat
