We all know that in 2009 and 2010, Kobe won and defended championships vs the teams (Orlando & Boston) that beat and broke LeBron, but did you know? that despite getting just 11 total free throws in the series, Bean in 2008, needed just 5 games to whoop the same Spurs that swept LeBron in the previous Finals
MVP Bean only got 11 total free throws in a 5 game series and still averaged 29/6/4/2 on 53% shooting, including 39 in the closeout game where 5 of those 11 free throws came.
Imagine being dishonest enough to claim that Kobe was never the best player in the world in his career when he consistently flushed the teams that easily beat LeBron, down the toilet
