    Man I'm glad that trade didn't happen. Kobe carried us like no one else could. LeBron is great, but I don't see him getting through the West playoff runs that Kobe had to. Plus I can't stand LeBron and that trade would have crushed me.

    Good stories from mostly all familiar faces.

    Except Baxter Holmes. Man even in a pro-Kobe article his blurb was garbage. Everyone else had a really fun or funny story to tell and Baxter Holmes said "Kobe said 'nice to meet you.'" Shut up Baxter Holmes.

    We should have a "stupid and unnecessary things ESPN says" thread:

    I read earlier that LBJ is the only legend where ring count has to be downplayed to lift him up, I think there is some truth to that.

    This graphic is beyond horrible, ESPN is downplaying Kobe with no shame at this point, they know exactly what they are doing.
    Side note: I graphic design, how does the best sports network in the entire world have such a bad graphic designer? lol

    Let's make the ring count the most obscure thing in our graphic.

    Don't blink, or else you'll miss one.



    He put a lot of great players, and Dwight, onto posters.
    My favorite thing is the variety of dunks.

    I think #2 should be #1. That kind of dunk over a defender of that caliber... just... not fair.

    Also I love how many of those come from when he's older either approaching or even AFTER his Achilles tear. Just wild.

    I got hyped at #92 and Kobe didn't let up from then on.

    Great video.

    Wow. #18 was great. #2 was awesome, but #1 was a combination of skill and athleticism that you just don't see from anyone else.

    24 did his throw-downs IN the game... No props, no cars, no bulls***t. The only others I've seen do the deeds were Jordan, Wilkins and Carter.
