He never adapted to FIBA calls... that the reality of it. He wasn't in foul trouble just that game, he had trouble all tournament.

That's like asking why the 2nd top scorer in the NBA was throwing airballs against FIBA players out there and had to give the ball to Lebron to secure the wins... it's a different game.

[DMC]

Yeah I'm sure Kobe was scared. Very scared. That is why he didn't play, just too nervous you know.

No, the Star called it pretty well. Kobe was too selfish. He looked and saw the bulk of the NBA talent wasn't going, so he didn't think it was worth the effort. He's accustomed to having Shaq carry him and Shaq didn't go.

he had more loyalty to his friend than to his country...Pop and Tim wanted Manu to win because they knew how much it would boost his confidence and make him a better player...the plan came full circle when the Spurs defeated the Pistons (team that raped the Lakers the year before) with Manu arguably being the 2nd most important factor of the win...


I know it hurts to know no matter how many stats you throw to us and to yourself, that Kobe is not a top 10 player let alone ranked ahead of Duncan, but this obsession with Duncan has got to stop...the Lakers historically are better team than the Spurs, so i don't see why you need to fight tooth n nail for such a small piece in such your team's history.

KD was definitely the MVP of the 2012 team.

http://msn.foxsports.com/nba/lists/Top-10-players-in-NBA-historySo what you're saying is that you had the number 4 all time center, number 7 all time player in Kobe, number 8 all time PG in Payton, number 2 all time PF in Malone, number 1 coach of all time and couldn't beat the same Pistons that TOSB beat with low end draft picks and left overs from other teams? The same Pistons that didn't have 1 player in the top 20?

Were you trying to make a point?

rapists never leads shit and his team would struggle to get past the first round when he was their only superstar on court.

What's your point?

You are a San Antonio Spurs fan

Malone was injured and age 40 (missed game 5), Payton was 35. Shaq, Kobe had chemistry issues.

The 2004 Pistons are not the 2005 Pistons.
It's like comparing the 07 Spurs to the 08 Spurs, or the 10 Lakers to the 11 Lakers, 02 Lakers to the 03 Lakers. Also Duncan shot 47 TS% in the finals vs them, not that far off from Kobe's horrible 46 TS% vs the better 04 Pistons.

this is where you are wrong, you value a writers opinion, while a forum poster gets the benefit of the doubt.....

check out the realgm100 thread, at leasts its not homerism from posters and most of the posters back it up with stats and evidence then following other media outlets like a black sheep

[racm]

Sons I bet Spurfans wouldn't mind Duncan ending up only with bronze when Manu has a gold, tbh

[DMC]

not only are you mad about us scoring Dwight...but you're wrong as well...you're also bitter, petty, and jealous as fuck :lol
And you're a Spurs fan. Welcome to 10 more years of mediocrity, despite you living vicariously though a Lakers fan name on the Spurs forum unless you are calling Kori Ellis a liar.

Yeah, non-American spurfans

[Ashy Larry]

If it wasn't bad enough that they brought home the copper medal. whats made it worse is the looks on their faces after they slapped those tree branches around their melons .....

go 3rd place .......

[Ashy Larry]

KD was definitely the MVP of the 2012 team.

could go with that ...... also saw LeBron dominate a few games without shooting more than 10 times ......

Bryant early shitfest definitely improved once the medal round started. Culd have been saving himself.

Melo was really nice during these games.

[Gutter92]

There's no question that Kobe is a better FIBA player, but Duncan is unquestionably the better NBA player, hence why 90% of non Laker/Spur fans have him ranked higher than Kobe in their all time lists.

[LkrFan]

We already know 5 > 4. That's not the point. This pic should end all Kobe v. Duncan comparisons. Kobe = 2/2 Gold Medals. Duncan =

Duncan obviously isn't as good as the NBA made him out to be. FIBA refs aren't on Sterns's payroll.

How come everyone else's game transferred to FIBA play (even former Laker Lamar Odom :toast), but Duncan's did not? :downspin: that shit if you must.

[LkrFan]

you lying dawg..he was facing 20-to-life on Bogus rape charges...more pressing things to worry about...deal with this bronze shit lil homie..it looks like gold but it ain't :lol

:lol

[LkrFan]

Duncan was in foul trouble most of the game (and tournament, actually)... nevertheless, that team had very poor 3 point shooting

We know what Cubby used to say about the ref card. :rollin

How come his NBA game didn't translate to FIBA? :downspin: job by El in 3, 2, 1...Go! :lol

[ElNono]

We know what Cubby used to say about the ref card. :rollin

Hey, I'm just saying what happened. Not defending that bronze. definitely a shitstain...

[LkrFan]

No matter how mad you get - Kobe is not the owner of a Bronze medal...

Lebron is
Wade is
Bosh is

and most importantly - Timmy is....a fact: his tramp stamp and tongue ring cost way more than that fucking bronze medal :lol

:rollin

http://www.blackcelebkids.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/bryant3.jpg

Fuck, those are some ugly ass kids, tbh..

The ape under his left arm probably needs a nice bath, tbh..

They're not certified BASTARDS like LeBron's tbh. :lol

[LkrFan]

13 4th quarter points in the 4th Quarter of the Gold Medal Game, 20 in 2nd Half

Meanwhile Duncan is a Bronze Medalist

Kicked so much ass, they piss tested him:



Kobe Bryant blew up in the second half of the US’s quarterfinals win over Australia on Wednesday scoring all 20 points after intermission. What was his reward for the stellar performance? A drug test.

LOLWUT? (http://larrybrownsports.com/basketball/kobe-bryant-drug-tested-australia/149963)

:rollin :lmao :rollin

[LkrFan]

True or false? If the NBA had refs not on Stern's payroll, Duncan would still be a first ballot HOFer. I say false. The Olympics prove it. :rollin :lmao :rollin
