That Laker team had 'experience' with a different core, we know that '91 team was Magic dragging them there.

The other two had experience losing.

We're talking second three-peat & I said what I said. You don't need to Google win totals.

Tell me why those Jazz teams were better than the 07 Spurs or 11 Thunder.

So you really brought up *the other time* they went to the Finals to cyse the Sonics?

Sure

>You do realize you just dissed Shaq with 5 yrs of exp,
yup, those Del Harris Shaq squads couldn't get it together mentally, they were immature & undisciplined.

David

Yup. DRob was never winning anything, was considered having fallen off by then. Duncan was the difference maker which manifested itself by his second year & the Jazz were never heard from again.

>Kobe with 2 yrs under his belt,
yeah dude, he was 19 then reading his poetry on the Cindy Crawford Show, you trying to make my point for me?

>Garnett with 3?

So? 21, playing on an expansion team, never good enough to carry a team on his own anyway.

Your case is making mine.

Disagree. Suns only team with a shot.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAAA

Please. Nobody's coming to take rings away. I got nothing against MJ. Just don't try to sell me on those foes being some murderer's row because they weren't. The late-90's West was a joke.
