Kirbys leg kick and the media

[Fabbs]

We've heard ad nauseam from the pro Lakers/Kirby/WWE-NBA about Dahntay Jones getting his defense too close thus causing *severe* sprain to Kirbys vag.
Is any media, particularly national, addressing Kirbys leg kick?
Offensive foul.

Here espn-Lakers Henry Abbott at least brings the subject up:
"....and that Bryant might have been called for an offensive foul for kicking out his leg." -exerpt.
But he never addresses let alone mentions it again in the entirety of his Kirby asskissing article.

Any media anywhere addressing the O foul?

Look, if it happened to our guy we would be Spuraging about it.

Perhaps.
But point of thread is to locate media (if any) who have commented on Kirbys leg kick.

Perhaps.

tee, hee. Yer adorable, Fabbs. Drach got ya naked, tiptoeing thru the tulips and you still deny him his accomplishment.

[InRareForm]

[Fabbs]

Bible Sprain?

**** who kick legs out trying to draw a foul, deserves to get their legs sweep

[HI-FI]

It's Kirby. Nigga rapes a chick and is celebrated for improving his street cred. Kirby has a habit of sticking his leg out, elbowing non-retaliatory niggas, sticking his dick in unrelaxed sphincters. Media or NBA don't give a shit as long as he brings home the bacon with his poor nigs version of MJ....imho.

That's hard

You idiots obviously don't play ball or understand the state of your body control when fading away......

This. Some of these people need to go outside and play basketball. Go shoot a fadeaway or maybe your lard ass is not capable of doing so.

You're so full of shit. You obviously don't play ball if you think you can't be in control of your body enough during a fade away jumper to prevent your leg from kicking out.

No leg kick. Kobe controlled his body just fine during those fade-away jumpers. In the first place, to consistently make fade-away jumpers requires precise body control, so if Kobe lacked the necessary body control to keep his leg from kicking out, he'd probably be a poor/mediocre fade-away jump shooter instead of one of the best.

i really dont think kobe kicks his leg out on purpse, i just think thats how his fadeaway is..

[whitemamba]

and regardless, the defender has to give the shooter space to shoot and land (safely) you cant crowd or undercut the shooter.

You've nary room. Your Neal raped as well. But, neither girl was of merit, or, a relative of ours, so it's okay.

I heard on the Cowherd show a half hour ago that there are rumblings he'll play tonite in IN..

True about Neal, but he didn't get the "street cred" support because he is a black journeyman, he ain't selling shit. The relative joke was pretty good.

He does it intentionally to create space. Jordan evolved his fade-away in similar matter.

Mix starts at 0:45. Compare how pronounced his leg kick is from that clip in 93 compared to the following few clips that are from the 80's.

& I imagined it pained a "white man" like Kobe to beg for that black support. That hot shot lawyer he had warned him not to do it and threatened to leave if he did. But, he had no choice. Whomever gave him that advice was dead on. Probably his dad I imagine. He wasn't in CA.. If he had he coulda skated and been glorified. But, not CO.. He either needed to get on the Lear and go to Italy, or, use every conceivable ploy at his disposal. And in the end that lawyer was just as conscienceless as Kobe. She was a junkyard dog and named the name day one and buried Eagle County under a mound of paper.

Who gives a shit about MJ in this case. Rules are rules and the NBA even called it a foul on DJ after the case. Regardless of fading or going forward, you can't take the air space away from a player without it being a violation unless you were there prior to said player entering that zone. Keep adding awesome insight to this board.

Has that peroxide seeped from your hair follicles into your brain and made you retarded? I wasn't even arguing about whether or not Jones's action was a foul. I was challenging your contention that a player loses body control when shooting a fade-away jumpshot. Maybe you lose body control, since you're in all likelihood a spastic, but any competent basketball player can control his body just find during a fadeaway.

it just seems like that space is created from the momentum of fading back, or maybe a balance thing, but i dont think that thats the "space" creator if you will...



He didnt undercut Kirby

i was speaking in general

It's the plane of vertically that I'm referring too. Regardless, when you fade that abruptly you need space to gather your feet to regain balance. Also, good joke, insightful.

[Latarian Milton]

it didn't look like an intetional infliction but it would've surprise me either if you tell me he got paid from his former boss (cuban) to intentionally injure kobe and to help mavs course of pursuing the 8th seed tbh. dahntay is an ex mav and it seems like the mavs will benefit most from kobe's injury, so we have all reasons to suspect the plot might be associated to them mavs tbh

[AussieFanKurt]

pfft whoever shoots fadeaways often is a fucking ball hog or not taking a good shot.. we aren't playing nba.. i've had seasons averaging 20/30 a game and I've never shot a fadeaway in my life

"Rules are rules" so lets hear your post on the offensive leg kick rule.
