I approve of that
This is why the media hates Kobe because he proves time and time again why he's smarter than them by literally being the smartest guy in the room.
Two days after the NBA draft, during which the Los Angeles Lakers selected three players, Kobe Bryant said he has one thing he wants them to do.
“Ask why -- why did things happen?” Bryant said Saturday night at the BET Experience held at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles during a sit-down interview with ESPN's Jemele Hill.
“I think players nowadays have become conditioned to do x, y and z. So you have coaches at the high-school level, college level, then the professional level, they tell you, ‘Do this, do that, do this, do that,’ as opposed to teaching players what questions to ask.
“So when you’re watching the game or playing the game, and he runs a pick-and-roll and all of the sudden the man is open in the corner and he hits the man in the corner and he knocks down a shot, you don’t want to just have that thing happen on accident.
You want to know why that happened.
“So you want to be able to read defensive packages and say, ‘OK, when I come off the screen-and-roll, the big did this, the weak side did that, therefore that’s open. And if I come here, now they make an adjustment; now that’s not open and that’s why that’s open, but now that’s not open and that means this one is open.’ It’s to get them thinking why things happen. I think that’s the most important thing for young players to understand."
Great decision maker his entire career. Why? Why did he made the most bricks in the history of the league? Why is he the only player to shoot 37.3% from the field while scoring more than 20ppg in the last 60 years? Why do you shoot tripled team when two of your teammates are wide opened?
Why would you like another cup of STFU Koon Man?![]()
Why?
When Tim Duncan ever has to play with the likes of Chucky Atkins, Smush Parker, and Kwame Brown...then you will be allowed to ask that question...ok for brains![]()
Weak argument considering Duncan already had a similar experience with the '02 Spurs when he had to play with a washed up Robinson and Steve Smith, rookie Parker, offensively challenged Bowen. That was the spurs starting line up that year and they still won 58 games.
Spur fan is absolutely shameless...trying to compare Tammy s teammates to Smush, Kwame, and Chucky

Right and my point is Duncan in his prime would have won 50 plus wins with those guys. Its not Kobe's fault he needs an all-star team to win over 50 games not everybody can win 50 games in this league with rosters that are not stacked.
Like asking "why did all these Lakers fans feel inspired to share their feeble thoughts after..oh..2008 or so?"
Answer: Pau Gasol
Post Pau gots doing Post Pau got things, yes that's you too Dale.
kirbs decision>>>lebrons decision
a snitch live on tv
How? how would Tammy have won?.....How would we ever know of such a scenario with Tammy when his entire career he's played with 2-3 Allstars and some of the greatest defensive players ever....
Your answer is?
Where were you in 1998? Your ty team win a few les and all of a sudden you think you're somebody....scoreboard

From '01-04 Duncan had zero all-star teammates. He was the only spur to go to an all-star game during that time period. '01-'02 spurs won 58 games, '02-'03 spurs won 60 games and the championship, '03-'04 spurs won 58 games. For those 3 years Duncan's team on average won 58.6 games and he managed to win a le during that stretch. Kobe had a similar stretch from '04-'07 with the Lakers of having zero all-star teammates and lets look at their record. '04-'05 Lakers win 33 games and a lottery appearance, '05-'06 Lakers win 45 games, '06-'07 Lakers win 42 games. During that 3 year stretch Kobe's team won 40 games on average and missed the playoffs along with 2 first round exits. It's clear Duncan is the superior player because he was able to do a lot more with zero all-stars during his 3 year period versus Kobe's 3 year period without all-star teammates.
Why? Why did I rape that girl in Eagle?
You got nary room. Your Rodman ratted out David "Chicken of the Sea" Robinson in the middle of a playoff run.
Pls list Tammys teammates from 01-04 and I'll list Kobe's from 04-07...Deal?![]()
Again you lack reading comprehension. List a teammate that Duncan played with during '01-'04 that made it to the all-star game? On top of that Odom's stats from '04-'07 or better than Manu,Parker, and Robinson's stats from '01-'04. It shows Kobe had more help than Duncan during his 3 year stretch and still failed miserably.
Jefferson, Ime Udoka, Steve Smith, Terry Porter, and more.
For some reason, Odom and butler just disappeared from laker fans memory.
Yeah... but he couldn't defend his le playing with a bunch of HOF'ers. Kobe dragged pussy Pau and a bunch of losers to the finals 3 straight years.
Odom was on crack when Kobe drug him to a back to back.
Kobe drugged him, that explains his behaviour.
Why? Why did Dwight Howard leave?
