2162826, Kobe might be the only player where scoring is frowned upon.

He's also the one guy who gets penalized for needing quality team mates to win. If he couldn't get a ring with Smush and Kwame 'Birthday Cake' Brown, it doesn't count.

Who cares if guys like Bird, Magic, Mike, Isaiah, Russell, West, etc won rings with multiple HOF and players? Kobe gets penalized for that luxury.

Duncan having Parker and Ginobili for a backcourt isn't the same as Kobe having Pau and Andrew Bynum, despite the obvious position inversion (Big with great guards, guard with 1 great big and one good big).

Few all time greats are scrutinized like Kobe.
Lebron did catch flack for Bosh and Wade, and that's bullshit too.

Dirk won without a prime HOF player (lets not act like that Kidd was the same guy who played for the Nets) and Dream (lets not act like anyone on that first title team was sniffing a HOF selection)and.... that's about it.
