I hope he suffers a life ending injury.

[steeledl]

I'll tune in tonight. I hope he has a great game..... Really is the end of an era. I've seen so much of his career..... I was a teenager when he was the biggest star in the game and everybody wanted those alien Kobe shoes that were like boats. I hated him for a lot of his career but only because he was such a great player.

Gregg Popovich: "Kobe is an iconic figure who will be missed, but as time goes on, it'll all pass, too. You haven't spent a lot of time thinking of Magic or Michael, I'm sure, Larry, Hakeem, so on and so forth. People take their places and life goes on for all of us."

[Obstructed_View]

Kobe lived rent free long enough for me to make this in photoshop, so about 20 minutes.

How I will feel after the last game of Kobe's farewell tour:

lord of the rings. go away

I can't front, he was one of my favorite players to ever watch, and I watched lots of his prime years when I lived in LA. Don't get me wrong, I was always rooting for him to lose (except vs Sacramento, I wanted the Spurs to be the team to end their dynasty), but I can't imagine being a basketball fan and not enjoying watching the guy play. I hope he ends up landing a spot on ESPN or TNT.

He would be good on TNT. He is a. Pretty straight shooter.....keeps it real and ain't scared to hurt feelings .

I have no problem with his game. It's all world. He was incredible to watch. It's his arrogance more off the court that I can't stand. For his sake, when he goes into the HOF, I hope he doesn't give a Jordan-like speech.

This is the guy who already wrote The Letter (http://www.theplayerstribune.com/dear-basketball/)...and he hasn't even stopped playing yet.

People used to say that if Allen Iverson were six inches taller, he'd be Michael Jordan. Truthfully, if AI were six inches taller, he'd be a better version of Kobe.

I don't think Kobe's speech will be like Jordan's, as Kobe wasn't ever driven to win at all costs by hate like Jordan was, Kobe was driven to sacrifice team by a desire for personal glory and adoration. Frankly, he couldn't have found himself in a better position to get it than the fans who forgave him almost immediately for driving away Jackson and Shaq.

Amazing talent, fun as shit to watch, hall of famer for sure. Also most overrated athlete in NBA history for sure, maybe in all of sports history and top 5 all-time worst teammate.

He was too fake, too corny, too much on that I-wanna-be-like-Mike steez when he was playing w/ Shaq that I couldn't stand him.

Yeah... I can only imagine what he will say about Shaq, Howard, Bynum, Malone and Horry to name a few. The letter's hilarious. When I first read it, my first thought was, "Who does this shit?".

[rastaspur]

Cosign on the one of the most overrated nba players of all time. One thing is for certain. He is a unanimous selection to the selfish all stars. Most selfish athlete of all time. Prince nassem hamed also reminds me of kobe. Just a cocky douchebag.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Great memories from Kobe's career!

Kobe - You were never as good as you thought you were.
The ego got to your head and made for an embarrassing 'farewell tour'.
3 seasons too late mind you, thanks for the laughs...1-14, most missed shots ever, 12th all time, etc....

So glad I won't have to watch you again.

Cheers

I'm sad to see Kobe go. No more automatic wins for us vs the lakers

[Mouth is Bleeding]

Many ppl will be perplexed when he announces that he wants to play on in a few months.

He'll be like an old boxer who can't walk away for good.

What's enjoyable about watching a role player chuck bricks every night? Did you also enjoy watching Antoine Walker play?

[Keepin' it real]

You really think Kobe is going to visit spurstalk to read your "special" message? LOL

agree with this as well.

I really hated him for most of his career, I knew he was a cancer and sociopath early on. Though tbh, I've enjoyed his last few seasons, how much of a hole he put the Lakers into. He's still easily a HoFer and one of the greatest villains the league has ever seen, which is great for entertainment value, but there's some justice to how his career has ended.

[timtonymanu]

rofl no words from Duncan in that tribute I noticed. Probably didn't give a fuck.

[lefty]

:lol Spurm fan is so bitter

:lol Prime Kirby OWNED the Spurms tbh

Players with at least four scoring titles...
Jordan (10)
Wilt (7)
Gervin (4)
Iverson (4)
Durant (4)

Sorry Kobe, maybe you should look up to these guys. We know you rode Shaq and Pau to those titles anyway.

[AFMadison]

Damn the haters, Kobe is one of the greatest whether you like him or not

Kobe was accused of intentionally giving away leads late in games so he could be the hero and hit the game winning shot when he was in high school.

[Obstructed_View]

Oh well, regular season is over. Time to stop focusing on regular season players.

Maybe Kibe will ask Pop to induct him into the HOF with this speech.

Helluva show last night, Kobe. No playoffs for you, again. Enjoy your retirement. You can pass the time watching Timmy get #6. :lobt2:

[hater]

:lmao broke record for most FGs missed in a game ever

Commands #1 in most career field goals missed with an insurmountable lead of 1060 missed shots more than #2 guy :lol

[Keepin' it real]

I hope Kobe haters are listening to The Herd today. Jason Whitlock is guest hosting, and he is blasting Kobe for being the most selfish and narcissistic star ever. Called last night's game hot garbage. He's not holding back anything.

And conversely, Russell and Kanell are basically genuflecting.

Who?
