    Not surprised. The league has been canine excrement for a while. The tanking is ridiculous. 3's just being bricked across the country on a nightly basis. Gross stuff.

    I don't think we'll see the NBA like we did 2006-2011 again for a WHILE. If ever.

    stupidity level million
    Max Kellerman says Kobe Bryant is only better than D Wade because he’s taller: “The only reason Kobe Bryant is greater than Dwyane Wade, is he’s two inches taller. Wade is 6’4 and almost as good as Kobe Bryant at his best. Between Jordan’s finals and when LeBron started taking over in the finals, the best finals ANYONE had was Dwyane Wade against Dallas in 2006” (Via Game Over)

    oh my god. if you think that absolute sham of a free throw fest finals was the best performance ever, you should never speak about the game again.

    ...I always associate Kellerman with boxing. Bug Eyes should stay in his lane.

    yeah, that's our age talking, probably. though now that i've heard what he has to say about other sports, i wonder if he was just as dumb about boxing, but nobody knew because nobody knows much about boxing, lol.

    Kobe would had played at a much higher level at an older age if he didn't snap his achilles. Look how that injury affected Durant at a younger age.

    At least we have one guy on this team with the Mamba Mentality- too bad he’s injured.

    Just like every other Kobe follower, I would welcome him to the PnG.
    Foxy was one of my all time favorite role players and we know who he started out with.
    We witnessed how much Rondo helped us in 2020 and Smart was a spectacular defensive leader for us this season.

    Yeah this stuff now with SGA being compared is absolute bull s***. Kobe would have destroyed him offensively and defensively. Hell SGA wouldn't have had a chance trying to guard Allen Iverson and Kobe took that on, those were some fun battles.

    SGA is actually pretty similar to kobe but not as strong or generally athletic. kobe was basically better at everything, imo. like i'm not sure i can think of a single aspect of the game where i would think they were equals or SGA was better.

    SGA has a decent mid range game- that’s the only similarity I see. He can make those from a few spots, but Kobe could make them from ANY spot on the floor.
    He can’t pass like Kobe.
    He can’t dunk like Kobe.
    He can’t defend like Kobe.
    He can’t block shots like Kobe.
    He can’t rebound like Kobe.
    Oh, he also is the exact opposite of Kobe when it comes to integrity of the game.

    Anyone comparing him to Bean is either a Laker hater or never watched Kobe play.
