2741637, Kobe’s foundation was as a laker. Posted by allStah, Sun Jun-27-21 09:55 PM
He didn’t even start in his first year. He didn’t come over as a superstar player. His superstar status was created as a laker. No one had any clue as to how good he was going to be...
The Bulls Dynasty was built out of the draft. Jordan, pippen Grant, king, Armstrong...all drafted. Rodman came over after winning rings with the Pistons, and that was after the bulls had already won three rings. The first bulls big three was Jordan, Pippen, and and Grant.
So I disagree, super teams built through FA was not a thing prior to the 2000s. It really started with the lakers of 2004 with Malone, Payton, Kobe and Shaq, and it has been out of control ever sense.
In this era, Superstar players are in their primes and bouncing before winning anything with the team that drafted them....
wack sauce. Win some shit first, then bounce. Come in as a Champion.
