So it counts when Kobe plays with Pau and Lamar at age 33 but it doesn't count when Tmac plays with Parker, Duncan, and Manu at 33 because he didn't have the conditioning to crack the rotation? All im saying is it is easy to throw out how many great players someone has player with when they have played at a high level for 19 years.

Yup. Even Melo had a much better situation early in his career.
Kobe could've had a TMac career if he were put with those crappy Cleveland squads for his first 7 years.

18 year old T-mac DID play with Vince Carter.

Im not trolling Im simply stating Tmac did play with good players at points in his career. The only difference is he had terrible health problems. When you take a 20 year sample size and compare it to a six year sample size, yes, it will look like Kobe has been incredibly fortunate.

People call Kobe a ballhog but he's averaged around 5 assists his entire career go figure. People wanna see these assist numbers on paper like Kobe just went from the 1st scoring option to Rondo.
Lol at these ifs. If Jordan didn't have Pippen and Rodman, If Duncan never had Robinson, Ginobili, Parker, if Kobe never had Shaq and Pau, if LeBron didn't have Wade and Bosh. See how easy that is?

So . . . the coach you were hoping to play for signs with the Knicks, and your decision is based upon how you will be treated by those in charge, and the leader of the team walks in, and then says this, in order to recruit you,
Nah', Howard's leaving had absolutely nothing to do Bryant, nothing.

Where do I sign up?

Kobe's supporting cast now is essentially what Lebron had to play with for his first 7 years in the league. Difference between Kobe and Lebron though is that Lebron was able to make those bums around him confident in themselves and made the team actually somewhat respectable. Kobe can't do that.

BECAUSE THAT IS MY POINT!!!!!!! Kobe has had the opportunity to play with that mean people because he has been at a high level for so long. You know damn well that if Kobe would have played with Duncan, Parker, and Manu at 33 people would be bring that up as well.

Proves ballhogs can rack up assists more than anything and that assists aren't black and white indicators of unselfishnessPeople call Kobe a ballhog but he's averaged around 5 assists his entire careergo figure.

Imagine most sports icons in different places and their careers could've turned out differently
Kobe's career is better than McGradys career for a variety of reasons
Deal with it

Funny how you are comparing a Prime and YOUNG lebron to a very old Kobe Bryant who is on his last legs
Now if both players were the same age in the same situation then you can hate on Kobe all you want about dealing with his teammates and making them better and i would agree with you.

I think most people accept that, it's just people like you who get so damn defensive and bitter when folks discuss legacies that can't wrap their minds around other facts

Agreed. Im not saying that at all. All im saying is when you are only great for 5-6 years it is hard to play with the same amount of great players as someone who has played at that level for 19.tmac's body gave out by the late 20s. dont care how great you are, when your body is that of an old man
