kingfish Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Threw MJ in the discussion just for fun, if you think MJ will have more rings then the current players posted. Kobe, Duncan, Shaq all sittin on 4 rings. Dont forget about DWade already got one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Tzu Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I reckon Kobe could reach 5... but thats about it IMO. LeBron could get 3 to 4 but I don't think he will get anything more than 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted September 14, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Probably Michael Jordan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren2ThaG Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Kobe with 7, he's playing like 8-10 more years.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Jordan. It's not likely that Duncan will catch him before his career ends. Kobe obviously has the best chance to at least tie Jordan's total. I didn't even acknowledge Shaq, he's done with rings for his career.

Diesel Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Jordan I don't see Shaq, Kobe, or Duncan getting more than 5 rings at this point. I wouldn't be surprised to see each of them get one more honestly. And if by chance one of them does get 6, there's no way in hell any of them get 7 and beat Michael.

headliner Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I believe that Kobe has a lot of years left in him and the Lakers are geared to win for the next few seasons so it’s in the realm of possibility that Kobe could at the very least end up with the same amount of rings that Jordan has.

Check my Stats Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I think Kobe is going to be dominant until he is 35 or 36, so I think he will win at least 2 more as long as the Lakers maintain a good supporting cast.THey are definitely going to need someone to lighten the load for Kobe though, hopefully for the Lakers' sake Bynum develops into a star post player. I can't picture Kobe surpassing Jordan though at 7 though, 2 more rings will be hard enough, if I had to bet money I would say Jordan will have 6 and Kobe will finish with 5.

deestillballin Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Jordan by all means. Kobe will tie thats about it. Duncan will PROBABLY tie thats about it. Shaq will probably get 5. LeBrwon will get 4. The rest probably 1 or 2. 3 at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massacre Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Surprising some are saying Kobe will never catch, or at least tie Michael. Have to factor in his physical state, how many years [longer] he'll play and the overall youthful team he's playing for. The Lakers aren't fading into the background anytime soon. At worst, he's tieing Michael before he calls it a career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingfish Posted September 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 At worst? So he'll win 2 more rings AT WORST even though he is like 32?He just turned 31. And is probably the best conditioned athlete in the NBA. Jordan won most of his championships in his 30's btw, in fact I think all of them in his 30's.

Massacre Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 At worst? So he'll win 2 more rings AT WORST even though he is like 32? Well first of all, Kobe turned 31 last month. He can and will still play 5-6 years in this league. Factoring in the overall talent the Lakers have (2nd to none as of now) and the youth of that squad (Gasol, Artest, Odom in their prime, Bynum waiting in the wings), this team is the favorite to repeat this year. Nothing is certain, but say LA does indeed repeat in 2010. Not a chance in hell that this core doesn't grab 1 more title in the following 5 seasons after that.

The Lakers are aging Fisher isnt getting youngerGasol is gonna be 30Kobe is already 31Artest is gonna be 30 Plus who says they could repeat, how do you know Fisher might just start showing his age or Artest could just disrupt team chemistry. I dont see Kobe getting 6 rings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted September 20, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I wouldn't be shocked to see Kobe get two in the next four years, actually...but I don't think he'll be surpassing Jordan. And I would say LeBron could reach six, but with guys like Wade, Rose, and Durant all potential MVP candidates in 3-5 years, it wouldn't take much to propel those guys into the Finals, either.

I dont see Kobe getting 6 rings.even though around 30 is the prime? Jordan turned 33 in the 1995-96 season. want to fill us in on how well he did that season? artest could disrupt teeam chemisty? and you think cavs are gonna win. ever heard of a nice man named Shaquille Rashaun O'neal? the same guy who left orlando because he couldnt stand to share the spotlight with penny hardaway? the same guy who dissed anythign to do with the lakers when he left and now is begging to come back? the same guy who made a picture of dwayne wades head on a womans body when he called him out about his physical condition?

I dont see Kobe getting 6 rings.Lol Fisher is not even that important. We have Shannon Brown who is young and a good defensive and all around PG and Farmar, besides the triangle offense does not really need a good PG, we just need a good role player which we have. Gasol just turned 29 lol.Artest is only 29 lol.Kobe just turned 31 lol.Bynum is like, 21? lol all of these guys have several years of their prime left, the championship window for the Lakers is very good right now. Not to mention all the players that will want to come here so we could possibly be adding more all stars in the next few years. Your argument is based on speculation, that Artest is going to disrupt the team or Fisher starts aging? I hope Fisher does start showing his age, at times he does more harm to this team then good, finally then we can take him out of the starting lineup. I cant believe you said the Lakers are "aging" lol. Every team is aging, everybody is aging, even you are aging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
