He said he and Lebron are underpaid
He's right from a business standpoint. He and Lebron make billions for the league. They are both grossly underpaid. From a salary cap/team success standpoint, he's a cancer.
Kobe is the gift that keeps on giving at this point in his career. I hope he makes a full recovery and s the Lakers out of two more seasons after this contract.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!...
Ah... Oh... One sec.... Ok, he... Ha... HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!...
OMG, I can't breathe...
Where is the Onion link? Please, tell me this is Onion article.
grossly underpaid? Hes the best non player player in the league IMO
Old age is going to be incredibly unkind to Bean. He will not deal with being an out of shape scrub that will get run off the court by a D1 prospect very well.
He's half correct. Nba stars are all underpaid within the context of team/league profits. Kobe is heavily OVERpaid within the context of the salary cap
bah, I see dmc said the same thing a few posts above

Kobe's been on the revisionist history war path these last two years. This is just another attempt.
Kobe desperately spinning his legacy
All these losers in this thread making low wages trying to justify the Spurs ing Jimmy with no vaseline.
For the global icons that LeBron and Kobe are, yes they are vastly underpaid. They should be clearing no less than $50 million per season, after-tax.
I bet you could say the same thing about most companies...Apple employees are underpaid compare to the company profit.
He's right, technically, but I don't think Kobe gives a about the "reason" he's getting paid 25 mil per year, tbh..
There are 2 reasons he took the money:
1- Vanessa
2- He's not the best, or even close to the best player in the league anymore, but at least he can still say he's the highest paid player in the league and still the most "popular"/best money generator in the league
He doesn't seem like the type to spend luxuriously, and he reportedly doesn't have any friends(and we already know his family doesn't speak to him), so I don't think he actually gives a about the money itself..
apple employees are replaceable
Well they're still getting paid outside of what they do so what is he complaining about?
You get paid on what you're worth of the court, not what you do out of it.
Sounds like their incomes only come in the form of salaries. They also rake in big cash from commercials endorsements and s, don't forget.
Great minds think similarly, tbh.
and what do you think of my latest poem?

Pretty sure Kobe was grossly overpaid this season at $5.076 million per game.
My has not aged well. They need to put him out of his misery
Kobe is easily worth 50 million. Not surprised that you low wage earners can't comprehend this.
He IS underpaid that's for sure.
But claiming to have championship aspiration while taking that huge contract is just hypocritical.
when does season 5 start tbh? Feel like I haven't seen that show in forever
