Prime Kobe and MJ on the same team, would they win a title?

[Frosty]

Won't work. Jordan could never share the ball with teammates. Kobe and Jordan switch places and it was Jordan and Shaq. They would of never won a title, because unlike Kobe. Jordan can't give up the ball to allow shaq to have 20+ fg attempts. Jordan could never play with someone that needed the ball as much as him. Kobe did it, and won three rings, and is now working on his 4th.

Kobe ever averager 8apg for a season? I think not

Kobe ever average 11.4 APG for a Finals series? I think not...

Kobe ever ignore a better scoring option in a Finals. I think so...



Ultimately I think it would come down to whether or not Kobe could handle being humbled continuously in practice on both ends of the court. If he handles it they would be awesome, otherwise they end up spoon feeding him baby food while he babbles mindlessly on the sidelines.

Short answer: NO!

Mike would mentally abuse Kobe. Kobe would bitch and demand to be traded. People call me a hater, but Kobe has shown very publicly that he is not mentally stable. Knowing MJ's personality, I don't think there is anyway to avoid becoming the target of his wrath.

. Plus Mike himself said he didn't know how Kobe dealt with Shaq all those years cause he couldn't have subverted his game for another dominant offensive player.

Are we making things up now?

And yes, they'd win a title(s).

Chemistry is not needed if you have both Kobe and MJ on the floor. Either player could take their defender and score. They actually don't even have to pass to each other and still win if they wanted to. That's why you have PG's and coaches who decide who gets the ball and when.
