Damn, everybody needs to calm down...Everybody is so bent on this topic, because none of truly hate T-Mac...he's the [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.] for real....if we were comparing Kobe to Parker or Shaq to Duncan, you know no one would be choosing any of the SA losers....but its T-Mac who we haven't really grown to hate....He hasn't torched us in the Finals and he isn't known as a Laker killer...he doesn't even talk [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.] on us....so that's why you got alot of Kobe fans respecting T-Mac, but not necessarily jumpin overboard and saying that he is better than Kobe...cause Kobe would kill him one-on-one....Okay didn't want to start another riot with that comment, but that would be a fun match up. KG is a person alot of people like, before he faced us in the playoffs and started talkin all this [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.]. I still love KG, but I viewed him differently after the playoffs. If he had eliminated us, you could imagine how many of us would be hatin on KG rather than Duncan.
T-Mac is incredible, Kobe is the Man and lets leave it at that...this is a forum and everybody is entitled to their opinions. No one should be judgin anybody on the type of answer given...the Guest that came in, was just a stupid idiot who's only intention was to talk [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.] and he succeeded by rilin everybody up...Anyways, Kobe is shorter than T-Mac and I think that is his only disadvantage. Kobe works on his game every summer and I believe he is a better shooter, better handler a better defender than T-Mac. Not off the charts better, but definitely better. We can't compare stats, because of their different situations...It would be easier to compare Pierce and McGrady cause they are in the same conference facing the same teams on a nightly basis and neither of them have a player that they have to REALLY share the spotlight with. Ask anybody who's Orlando's team is or Boston's team is and you'll get T-Mac and The Truth, respectively. Ask anybody who's team LA belongs to, and now you are not going to get anything close to an unanimous selection.
I FEEL that Shaq determines everything and talent wise Kobe is better than T-Mac....but we will truly find out when Shaq retires...
