How would you feel Kobe's Legacy changes if he beats Boston twice?

2008 was a special year for kobe, his only MVP season. Winning in 08 would mean he wins a title, the gold, all defensive 1st, and finals MVP in the same year. It would give him a 6-1 finals record, which some might argue is more impressive than 6-0 since it's the same wins with an extra appearance. It doesn't change his stats output of course, a major reason players like LeBron and Jordan and held in a higher regard on reddit, but the narrative becomes stronger, however much that's worth

In addition, some all time greats would lose credentials if this is flipped, since KG and Paul Pierce would both be without chips
