I could see that in 2012 for sure and maybe 2013. However, 2014 Spurs would’ve said otherwise for sure in my book. However, a Lakers vs Spurs series in 2013 with a CP3 and Kobe Lakers would’ve been an epic battle that likely would’ve sent the Kobe vs Tim Duncan rivalry out in style (both were amazing that year). Manu and Tony had injuries right before the playoffs in 2013, Tony recovered well but Manu didn’t that year so maybe that could’ve hurt the playoff series. Would still be great though. After that though Golden State and OKC destroyed everyone in their path and I don’t think either team would’ve done a thing against that.

I remember there was a trade rumor of lakers sending Gasol to Houston for Kevin Martin, scola, and doran. This was before the d12 and nash thing. This was like in 2011. That would have prolly got Kobe his 6th ring
