bump! The Kobe thread as long as I am alive and active on this forum will never ever be on any page other than #1.
ahh, we have so many already. I imagine any new ones we add once a year really need to be new players rather than old ones. But I have the extras hosted to use any time you want. Laker Emoticons
That's true and I do use those on there from time to time. I was just thinking about the convenience factor is all. I don't want to create any extra work for anyone so as long as its in there (sirron's website - Laker Emoticons) that's fine.
Thanks for the kind words. It's one of my new favorites though, but it is from his post playing career too. Mr Oscar night and all, but thought it was a perfect picture to use.
Finally seeing this. That Oscar jersey moment is priceless. And Kobe is such a good interview and presence. I'm going out on a limb and going to say he .... has IT. You can tell early.
Never did I think watching Michael Jordan in the 90s, did I think my Lakers would soon have their own Michael Jordan. Never. Man, what was the luck that happened? 20 years of greatness and it's unlikely we ever see a player like that for the Lakers. We will see titles and great players, I'm sure. But never this guy. Glad to say I saw him play live, 1000 games on t.v. and witnessed some of the greatest NBA basketball in its history.
You're right. There will never be another Bean. There has never been another Magic, Kareem or Shaq. There are a handful that cannot be cloned.
