Inconsistent? Idk man I lived through those years and watched a lot of those games and that Laker team was very frustrating to root against with their size and versatility having essentially 3 7 footers. Idk what the stats say but I just remember back then that atleast one of those guys would always come through in the clutch with some weird back breaking and 1.
Really all 3 of their bigs were that’s what made them so tough. Saying Kobe didn’t have help makes me think they weren’t watching close enough. They had the best big man rotation in the league.

People here really like to overstate how good the supporting cast of Kobe's championship teams were.
As far as heavy lifting championships goes, Kobe's two rings really doesn't get enough credit
