Tony Allen only played 19 minutes in the entire 2008 Finals, and the only time Allen guarded Kobe in the 2008 Finals was the 2nd quarter of Game 5. Allen did a very good job in preventing Kobe from scoring during the stretch he was on him, but other times Kobe beat his defense with passes

What do you think of the Golden State Warriors? Do you think they're a bit overrated, do you think they can beat the Bull's record and even if they did, would it even be the same because of their schedule?

@NobodyTouchesJordan 8 жыл бұрын

I have respect for the Warriors. So far they've played a great year. I was worried at first that they would beat the 72-10 record, but now I don't think they will. I think they will have at least 1 more loss in their next 3 games against the Bulls, Pacers, Spurs and they'll reach 5 losses before getting 41 wins, which is where the 96 Bulls lost their 5th game. They also have 3 more games apiece to play against OKC and SAS not including the upcoming game on Jan 25, so their schedule is going to get tougher compared to the first half of the season The one thing about the Bulls in 96 is that Rodman missed 18 games in which the went 15-3, so ideally the Bulls could have gone 75-7 in the perfect scenario. But the Warriors also had their injuries to Barnes and Curry sat out in one of their losses, so I think it evens out in that regard

He was on his way up to becoming a great offensive producer before that post-whistle dunk that blew out his knee. He was a great defender, but was just blooming into an offensive player when that injury occured. Shame. He could have been a great overall player if he'd just stopped when the whistle was blown.

But Kobe is arguably the GOAT at his peak, he just took the craziest shots and was a microwave player. There’s a reason he wasn’t anywhere near a 40% 3pt shooter.
