I think they probably were thought of that way by their own teams even back then. At least during the portions of the games when they played that way, mostly in the 4th quarter for Kobe. I think they made a conscious choice to play him at the one in their offense during certain parts of the game, but that the talking heads on TV and the media we’re just slow to use the terminology.
There are like two whole generations of basketball fans who think player’s positions are determined solely by size. It’s bananas.
