When the Lakers won three consecutive championships, O'Neal played the best, after all, it was also in peak state at that time, Kobe Bryant, as a fledgling rookie, was able to quickly sit in the second position of the team, and his performance was also quite dazzling.
-
O'Neal averaged 3 rebounds per game, and Bryant averaged 6 rebounds and assists per game.
-
The Lakers' three-game championship period mainly relied on O'Neal and Kobe's strong individual strength, Kobe Bryant's continuous growth during the three-game championship, and his personal data was also very luxurious, O'Neal showed strong dominance on the inside, and the duo was unstoppable.
-
There aren't many three consecutive championships in NBA history, and O'Neal led the Lakers to three consecutive championships in 1999-00, 2000-01 and 2001-02. At the same time, O'Neal also won the FMVP of the three-in-a-row village.
In the 1999-00 season finals, the Lakers played against the Pacers, and in the end, the Lakers defeated the Pacers 4-2 and won the championship.
In these six games, O'Neal averaged 38 points, rebounds and blocks per game.

I don't think it would be better for the Lakers to choose O'Neal in '04 than Kobe. In fact, at that time, O'Neal was very qualified to compete with Kobe, and the outside world, including Kobe, thought that the Lakers would keep O'Neal and chose to give up Kobe Bryant. However, the end result surprised everyone.
After all, it is Kobe Bryant's young advantage that the Lakers value more, of course, Kobe lives up to everyone's expectations and leads the Lakers to a higher place. The Lakers are indeed very smart, and the choice of Kobe Bryant proves that its vision is not wrong, but unfortunately O'Neal is also very good.
But O'Neal really doesn't necessarily surpass Kobe's later results. Even if O'Neal was still outstanding in '04, O'Neal led the Heat to first place in the East in the '04-05 season. Back then, O'Neal and Nash competed fiercely in the MVP selection.
In addition, the Heat won the match point 3-2 in the Eastern Conference finals that year. If Wade hadn't missed Game 6 due to injury, O'Neal could have won the title in 2005.
However, O'Neal's age limit is too big, if he stays in 04, he can continue to play as the core of the Lakers for about 3 years, and the remaining two years can not continue to be the first core, so he can only take a back seat and play for another two years. At that time, he will also be of the age to retire. Therefore, the Lakers have a long-term view at this step, and would rather give up O'Neal, who still has spare energy, to keep Kobe, and the Lakers have always needed a core figure like Kobe.
is both individual and very loyal to the Lakers, and has contributed all his 20 years to the Lakers. What's even more rare is that Kobe Bryant played a non-negligible role in uniting the team, he really loves the Lakers, so he is surprisingly strict with the players.
In the summer of 2004, O'Neal just turned 32 years old, at this time, O'Neal was still dominant, and in 2005, O'Neal, who partnered with Wade, almost won the championship, but the age was approaching 35 years old, and soon O'Neal's ability will obviously decline, so the Lakers' choice of Kobe Bryant is really a long-term plan.
-
will be very good and will become very good, and this is also a particularly capable basketball player, at the age of 50, he has won a lot of excellent results, such as winning 75 big balls and winning two NBA championships.
-
There wouldn't have been a particularly good development, and there wouldn't have been a lot of great results, but no matter how brilliant it is, there wouldn't have been as many results as it is today.
-
If you choose to give up Kobe Bryant at that time, it may not have a good development, and it will also change this pattern.

Of course not, first of all, but from the name we can see, OK combinations are indispensable.
Because O'Neal is the core of the interior and the big killer, responsible for the overall inner offense and defense, the Lakers have become a strong point and advantage when they meet other teams. For example, against a team with a weak interior line, the Lakers can win the game with O'Neal's massive kills. When encountering a strong team on the inside, the Lakers can also use O'Neal and the opponent's interior as a countermeasure, greatly weakening the lethality of the opponent's interior and creating conditions for the team to win.
As a scoring guard, Kobe Bryant serves as the Lakers' outside line, and is the offensive core and defensive gate of the Lakers' outside line. Medium-to-long-range shots, inside breakouts, and outside defenders will all cause significant damage and scoring to the opponent. And O'Neal and Kobe are inside and outside, when O'Neal is contained, Kobe will attack and kill on the outside, and when Kobe is contained, he will either run and pass, or break through the ball to O'Neal to talk about the resistance, and carry out inside killing.
The two of them complement each other and complement each other. Let the opponent run for his life and take care of one thing and lose the other. After all, it's impossible to find a combination like the "OK Combination" in the rest of the league that is so dominant and lethal.
Therefore, the two worked together to win three consecutive championships and achieve the Lakers dynasty.
And the duo's stats don't lie, especially in the most crucial playoffs.
In the 1999-2000 playoffs, O'Neal appeared in 23 games, averaging points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks per game (shooting 56 percent).
Bryant appeared in 22 games, averaging points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks per game (shooting percentage.
In the 2000-20001 playoffs, O'Neal appeared in 16 games, averaging rebounds, assists, steals and blocks per game (shooting 55%)
Bryant appeared in 16 games, averaging rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks per game (shooting percentage.
In the 2001-2002 playoffs, O'Neal appeared in 19 games, averaging rebounds, assists, steals and blocks per game (shooting 52%)
Bryant appeared in 19 games, averaging rebounds, assists, steals, blocks per game (shooting percentage.
It can be seen that even from the data point of view, Kobe Bryant is the absolute core, even comparable to O'Neal's closed-yard drum, so Kobe Bryant is definitely not the three consecutive championships won by hugging O'Neal's thigh.
-
Of course, Kobe Bryant won the championship with his own efforts, and because of his usual training and hard work, he was able to improve his strength and let himself get such an achievement.
-
I don't think so. Kobe Bryant has his own strength. He did not succeed by virtue of O'Neill's status and position. There are no shortcuts to success.

There is Joe to choose Joe, and there is no Joe to choose Shark, which means that if there is Jordan, Jordan will be chosen, and if there is no Jordan, the big shark O'Neal will be chosen, even if it is James and Kobe, they are not as good as these two in the eyes of fans. Coincidentally, both of these two have completed three consecutive championships and three consecutive FMVPs, so who is more dominant during their respective trifecta periods? >>>More
In fact, the Lakers still have a lot of hidden dangers, 1. The guard line is too old, Kobe and Nash, the two main guards, have no good long-range ability and physical fitness, and the other guards have not used to show good ability. 2. The striker is not tough enough, Ah Tai's defensive ability is okay, but obviously the pace has not been able to keep up, mainly relying on body and experience, the offense is not distinctive, in fact, the main force is a little reluctant. My sister-in-law is still very tough in international competitions, but in this place where muscular men emerge endlessly, his playing style is still a little softer, 3, the center injury, if there is no injury, it should be the strongest point, and now I haven't used Warcraft, if he is in the other, it should be different. >>>More
