Well that is an interesting point. But I think the key word I've been using is "excessive" I've never once said that this year's Kobe is playing...
@Weezy Fair enough. But if he starts chucking again, and if I see people ranting excessively (in my view) I'll be back here defending him again....
Precisely why Kobe deserves that $25 million contract.
@Weezy Thanks for the cookie. I do take credit for mentioning that his shot was starting to look better a few games ago. Look, I'm not here to...
@therealdeal No, not a "told you" but some posters may benefit from having a level head. He was struggling and trying to adjust the entire...
Not sure. The current starting 5 is keeping us in games early. DAR and Julius aren't assertive from the opening tip and are a handful for...
^ He may have finished loading last night.
I agree, Kobe was great on so many different facets last night. Never imagined this day would come and I'm so proud of him. This could be the...
Julius was monstrous
So much for Kobe being selfish and not caring about being a detriment to the team. You gotta love how fast the mood swings here :wasntme:
Did we not know this for years? Is this something new? Asking him to change his playing style and asking him to change his personality are two...
I have no problem with fans wanting him to play smarter. But Kobe isn't capable of that. You guys know that. Mitch certainly knows that, being...
I feel that is for Kobe to decide. He deserves to go out on his own terms. If he feels like he can play better, who are we to script the ending...
@Weezy honestly he hasn't really taken that many bad shots lately. Maybe one or two heat checks after consecutive makes.
@therealdeal I know this is not the same Kobe. I'm not blind. However, he's shown glimpses of playing like old-MJ. Like the 2 consecutive...
How do you think Kobe is wired? 1. OK I've been shooting like crap so I need to give in to father time and take less shots. 2. I've been shooting...
I see the same Kobe with physical limitations. He's always been about getting his. That's what made him great.
I'm really surprised at the amount of hate directed at Kobe. Laughing with the other team has nothing to do with not caring. Just because he's...
If Kidd had a jump shot his triple doubles would have been 20/10/10 and not 10/10/10 :D
Don't know... Kidd couldn't shoot until very late in his career. DAR's shooting is his clearly his greatest strength so far... at least in this...
