Official 2017 NBA Offseason Thread: Media Days begin

[MVP]

Eh I'd say that Kareem, at least, is eternally disrespected for his place in the game. And that he's the clear #1 of that group but I've heard Magic + Kobe named as the greatest Laker more often. IDK.

How is Kareem clearly the #1 LAKER of all time?
Kobe is the franchise leader in points, games and minutes played, steals, free throws, 3rd in rebounds (Kareem 2nd). Kareem is the franchise leader in blocks that's it. Not to mention Magic was a 3 time MVP during that run in the 80s and face of the league as well as the franchise leader in assists (Kobe 2nd).

Kareem is higher ranked in career totality given his run with the Bucks but as a Laker it's pretty clear Kobe and Magic are the top 2.

Well he's the best player of the three, the leading scorer of all time, and played on the Lakers for 14 years. I firmly believe it's just his personality and position vs. Magic that kept him from getting the acclaim he deserves.

That's covering up how serious it is. No one gets plasma injections just because

Don't know whether it's right or wrong but players here get them just because
Pulled hamstring lemme get PRP it is relatively cheap especially for pro sports and minimal recovery time so why not

3 consecutive finals mvp>>>

Shaq played with the Lakers for only 8 seasons and won 3 chips. His impact while great doesn't match up to Kobe, Magic, or even Kareem.

The media didn't really like him after he changed his and became Muslim when he was with the Bucks. He gave the media very little because he didn't trust them.

How would a normal human react to getting the procedure done?

 

[Maximus Meridius]

That's dope.


I see they tryna boost his soft ego.

I mean Kareem won 3 MVPs and 5 rings as a Laker too. He's def in the conversation with Magic and Kobe to me but I'm not a Lakers fan.

Exactly. And he's still suffering from that.

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

Kobe also is leading the lakers in turnovers, fouls, and missed shots.

 

[freeze]

Nothing about arguing, that just doesn't make sense.

Someone has an injury, they get a procedure.

Years later, procedure is done again, but we call it "preventive?"

Nah, the procedure was done since there was a previous injury. After something happens ONCE, you can no long use a procedure as "preventive" measures.

That is just LOGIC

Thats actually not science based at all lmao. Its not even a sound opinion either. Like..you dont get an arthroscopic procedure as a preventative measure but you may get a massage for prevention. Prp isnt surgery. While it is somewhat invasive, it low impact and outpatient. If it adds more cushion to the knee joints and makes the cartilage heal faster where there is deterioration..how is that not preventative over just letting it get worse? If you get something done that isnt a repair measure but instead has some benefits then its preventative. Getting ahead of something before it becomes an issue.

We are talking about Westbrook right?

Who has a history of knee issues, right?

If he didn't have tbe history, you could call it preventive

One of those MVPs I think in 76 the Lakers had a losing record and Kareem never won a chip with the Lakers prior to Magic coming.
