I don't know if the title seals the deal for him being the greatest, but he's definitely top 2 with Magic now (not that he wasn't already).
Kobe is the greatest Lakers no doubt about it, he didn't play great yesterday but he is the greatest Laker with this title ! Another title and he just may become the GOAT.
It is in doubt, Shaq was very impressive in the Finals as was Magic. If you're going to rank these players precisely you should have a more detailed explanation. Edit: He's in the La Laker discussion, I just want to see more thought out posts.
Huh? He's nowhere near GOAT, probably a top 10 player ever now though. and i'd still put him a notch below Magic, but goddamn, he's getting closer.
