Kobe can reach 3rd best guard ever if he wins this title i think
If he continues this high level of play for 3-4 more years He'll probably over take Magic, and sit just behind Jordan

what? Due to aspects out of his control, Magic had 11 ridiculous years, but his career was cut short. If Kobe can keep up a high level of play into his mid to late 30's, that counts for something

in my opinion i think kobe sits right next to magic if he wins this one. he will have to keep playing well for 3-4 more years to legitimately challenge jordan though (and win at least one more title)

btw i havent been this excited for nba for so long!

If Kobe sustains his high level of play and wins this fifth ring, where would you place him in the all-time great list? Top ten? Top five? Second-best guard ever, passing Magic and just behind Jordan?

He's already top ten IMO, a championship will put him on the short list with Russel, Magic and Jordan - because it will finally prove that he is not just a brilliant player but also a brilliant leader, something that is a given with those guys.

I honestly don't even care about these finals that much. Only aspect I'm looking forward to is seeing if the Lakers can take revenge on Boston for the beat down they took the last time they met in the finals. In the aspect of high caliber games it's going to be much better than last year, but I really don't care for either team. Only reason I want LA to win is to build up Kobe's legacy more.

Didn't Magic Johnson retire because of the whole AIDS thing?

yeah i think the players didn't want to play with him on the court cause they're scared if he drew blood they would get it.

I'm not sure I would really characterize that as out of his control.

The league forces him to retire = out of his control. He could've practiced safe sex, but it was the 80's. We didn't know too much about AIDS and HIV and how to prevent it ect.

Uh it's a Lakers vs Celtics finals. How can you not be excited if you're a basketball fan?

Regardless of his totally irresponsible behavior (even for an NBA player), Johnson tore cartilage like his second year and had knee problems his whole career. I don't think he would've kept going that much longer anyways.

Can't agree with that. He was still going strong in his last campaign, and would have just moved up to the 4 permanently if his mobility was really hindered. The Lakers probably wouldn't have won another title anyway, but Magic would have ended up with insane aggregate numbers if not for the early retirement.

It wasn't just blood, people were alot less informed and understanding back then.

Who wins the first quarter? Celtics or Lakers? I'm very curious, since it will be the starting 5 vs, and both the lakers and celtics have relied on taken early leads to win their games.
