LA LAKERS CHAMPION AGAIN! 15th Time..
U believe it?!Kobe did it again!!! This time without the help of Shaquille O'neal to get a championship ring.
YES! THE LA LAKERS... CHAMPION!!!
Its Kobe's 4th and Phil Jackson's 10th championship. Phil now is the only coach to have 10 championship rings after he surge past the Great Red Auerbach.
It took Kobe so long to finally wear the ring again... Ever since they won one at 2002's finals, they didnt make it to 2003. In 2004, they had the dream team, where Shaq, Kobe, Karl Malone and Gary Payton were in the team. Unfortunately, they still lose.
2005 where all left LA except Kobe to clean up the mess. They didnt make it to the playoff that year. Then 2006, Kobe and Phil meet up again. Then lead LA to the playoff 1st round and almost defeated Phoenix Suns then, they were holding a 3 - 1 lead at first but in the end 4 - 3 losing to the Suns.
In 2007, they challenged the spot again and was no match with the Suns this time round, eliminated early. Kobe got grumpy, he demand a trade to other teams. That was when Pau Gasol joined the team, Andrew Bynum grew strong. 2008, LA made their 1st Finals appearance since 2004. Everyone thought they could out last Boston since LA had Kobe, but in the end Boston beat LA in 6 games... What a fashion...
Kobe was unhappy and demand a comeback next year... He went to the Olympics and joined the redemption team to redeem US's lost championship in the Olympics. Kobe helped US won it back by beating Spain. Then Pau Gasol was also in Spain team, improving alot as a 'Center'.
LA made it through the playoff like last year to the finals. Defeating teams that have different playing style and element. When Game 1 of the Finals begin, Kobe had a serious look. He told his team he is ready to face all odds. And AFTER 5 GAMES, the LA LAKERS IS BACK ON THE THRONE!!! Its their 15th Championship and Kobe finally won a Finals MVP. Mission Accomplished.
Maybe 2010 finals LA will win again giving Phil his last and final 11th Champion before he retire. And giving Kobe his 5th title, 1 less from the great one, Michael Jordan...
recap: Game 5
