Lookup Kobe and Shaq’s stats in game 7 of the Portland series in 2000.

Scalabrine's take makes no sense. He says look at what Kobe did after Shaq.....well he went to 3 finals and won back2back titles.

Even the biggest hater wouldn't consider AI over Kobe.

I think everyone can agree that replacing Kobe with [insert premier SG] would win 2001, Shaq and the Lakers were just that dominant that year

But would anyone say the same about 2000 and 2002?, would anyone [insert premier SG] other than Kobe allow the Lakers to go 15-1?

Even Scalabrine admitted as much in the clip after umming and awwing re: Kobe/AI

I agree with him on his views on Shaq but not with Kobe tho.
