Example, the 2004 Lakers, Star bright, Karl Malone, Payton, you, O'Neill, which are the NBA's top stars, but ultimately did not get the championship. Do you think players of the "dump" really give the team brought a qualitative change it?

Bryant: A team of two players in the role is clear, when someone double-team, at least there is a point to open up the situation. However, the most important thing is unity. Only by uniting as one, star will add the role, if heart arrhythmias, the result would be a good beginning.
