2741637, Kobe’s foundation was as a laker.

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.
