Thats true. But they are one of quite a few. This season for instance. I could make a case for 10 teams as possible legitimate World Series candidates

I think we need to just realize a couple of things here and get back to being a big happy group of friends:

1. I already won the thread with the Darko write-in vote. ;)
2. If you want to see a sport where anyone, truly, anyone can win, just watch the NHL. Offer obviously void in Canada, however, but the defending champions came into the playoffs as the 8th seed out of 8 in the West and stomped mudholes until there was no dirt left to be found.
3. Baseball and Football also suffer from only having four legitimate title contenders, as long as you're allowed to wait until the conference championships / league division series to identify those contenders. That way WFU can be correct without having to reconcile his statement with arbitrary things like the actual champions.

Well out of the 4 major sports, football is the only 1 that doesn't have a best of series to determine the Champions. If they had that, it might be easier to eliminate some teams. There 1 play in the 1st or 2nd round can eliminate you from a championship. Thats not the case, in the other sports. I agree with you, on hockey though.

I'd also like to throw out, what does, how many teams can predict to make the finals, or win the championship, have to do with Kobe, LeBron, or Darko is better?

Kobe in his prime would destroy anyone, and even give MJ a run when MJ was in his prime.
81 on the Raptors to bring them back and win,
And outscoring the Mavericks in 3 quarters with 62.

Also, in that Raptors game, he really only shot 46 times, 28-46(61%) and 7-13(54%) from downtown, not to mention the 18-20(90%) at the Free Throw line, he even managed 2 assists, which doesn't seem like much, but when you score 81! He also had 3 steals and a block.

In that Mavericks game, Kobe went 18-31(58%) 4-10(40%) from 3 22-25 Free Throws(88%) 8 Rebounds, and 3 Steals in 33 Minutes..

Not to mention, he scored 50 points in four consecutive games...

Now you ask, how is this relevant?

Did Lebron do any of that?

If Lebron had 40+ shots against the Raptors (that Raptor team, current Raptor team, or almost any Raptor team) he would score a good bundle of points for sure. But what's the point? A win is a win.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Exactly, if a win is a win why are we comparing these two?

5 Rings to 1 Ring. 6 Rings to 5 Rings.

MJ > Kobe > Lebron.

I'll just say this: Kobe had Shaq and others around him to help him win his championship. When Lebron was in Cleveland, he didn't have the team around him that could win a championship. Not necessarily saying that Kobe is better, but I'm not saying he isn't either.

Very true. But neither Jordan or Kobe ever had as much talent around them as Lebron does at Miami now. I mean, them not winning (or at least getting to the finals) every championship until some sort of power shift means they've underperformed badly in the postseason. It's pretty ridiculous what he has now.

Hondo Havlicek > Robert Horry > MJ. Though in this case it's Bill Russell's world and everyone else can suck it.

The +1 is from me, as not many people remember my "uncle" John anymore.
