Give me a break! That's just the Lakers who were better than him. If you look at the whole league all time greats , you got to put Kobe somewhere on the cheeleading squad cause he couldn't make 1st , 2nd or 3rd team all time great. I'm not sure Kobe is even one of the 5 best guys in the league now , never mind all time. Half the time these announcers got their heads up their you know what. It just wouldn't go over too big with the league if the announcers told the truth and said there just isn't one truly great player on either of the teams in the finals right now. For my money Turkoglu is the best player on either team right now and I'm not sure even he could have made the original Olympic Dream team. The truth is the whole league has very little talent at all right now so they got to build up who ever they have as great.

Now he has 4 rings..........One for each of his BIG heads.
