How many rings wud MINN have if they had Kobe instead of KG?

[34Dayz]

Zero, he'd be a taller Iverson.

[Dark_Magician]

Better question would be what would have happened if they drafted Kobe instead of Marbury/Ray Allen in 1996.

that's a stupid question.

How is this a stupid question? Please help me understand where your coming from. I'm not calling you out I just want ot know your point of view on his question, because I think it a great question, Marbary and Allen together still can't come close to Bryant. Bryant and Garnett would've been something wonderful to watch

[RojanRando]

0 and Kobez woulda taken his talents elsewhere

[Sky_Knicks]

None. Couldn't get sh*t done without Shaq/Pau. /thread

Pau is so garbage that he won ZERO rings without Kobe. Kobe was able to win THREE without Pau.

Shaq was so dependent on Kobe that he won only ONE ring without Kobe. Kobe was able to win TWO without Shaq.

See how I threw your ridiculous argument in your face? /thread

Zero.

He would probably have the same 7 or 8 consecutive first round losses as well.

[Dezmondballins3]

0 at max seriously.

[KianAllen]

same fate as KG. zero. but would win after going somewhere else.

While I agree that the guy is hating on Kobez, your argument defending Kobez is terrible. Of course Kobe has more rings than Pau, Pau NEVER had arguably the best center of all time in his prime on his damn team! Also Kobe winning one more ring than Shaq when Shaq is 7 years older and doesn't have the league's best frontcourt (or backcourt for Shaq?) aiding him isn't that special.

Yes all in his face and I'm loving it, Shaq got to the finals too and got sent home with a broom and dustpan, Gasol never won a playoff game with the Grizzles out of 12 games not a darn one. So that thing about Kobe needing them and them not need Kobe is going to go as far as four fat chick in a Kia Rio with four flat tires......LOOKATMENOW

[Lost Angel]

I doubt he would have won any before he bolted in free agency as soon as possible

A better question would be how many rings Duncan would have if he was on the Wolves during his prime.
He's the only guy that I think could have realistically brought that team a championship.
No Spur-like dynasty but I think he could have willed at least one crappy cast in Minny to the title

since i think that Parker and Manu have been overrated their whole career, I think Duncan can easily bring a championship to MIN, just get him an "almost all star" like Stephen Jackson and Duncan gets a couple of rings and a few MVPs, like Bob Pettit.

except that you are forgetting about Shaq. the Spurs needed two hall of fame worthy centers to get past him. i'm curious to see what sort of team your talking about with Duncan that would win a title or two.

Duncan
?
?
Jackson
?

Zero, I think Kobe would have hard time making the playoff with the teams KG had in Minni let alone win championship...
