"Hating"![]()
This is a Spurs forum. We can hate Kobe all we want. If you want to ride Kobe's jock go find a Lakers forum.
Keep your SA glasses on if it makes you feel better. This was geared towards fans of the NBA. Again, hate all you want. At some point you have to give him his props no matter where you live.
I respect Kobe has a player but I still cannot stand the guy. He is a world class jerk and a ss hole.
Killer instinct ?????
I thought he had the RAPER Instinct
Great article on Kobe. Only Manu has the same will to win, and Manu isn't as physically gifted.
How can a guy with Kobe's killer instinct not win the le every single year? Or put up only two shots in the second half of Gm. 7, 2006 first round versus the Suns?
Really? There are four basketball forums here: one is en led "San Antonio Spurs", one is en led "PistonTalk", one is en led "RealKingsTalk", and one is en led "Basketball News Central".This was geared towards fans of the NBA.
And you chose "San Antonio Spurs". Interesting choice.
Raper instinct...haha classic
Will do.
You don't have to like him but you will respect him, he will retire arguably the greatest player of all time.
Parts of his game. Not him.
Um, no.
maybe top 10.
DEFINITELY after jordan.
but the fact that he never won a championship without shaq will always lead to an * next to his name.
Come on guys all this raper instinct crap needs to end.
First and foremost the girl showed up to the investigation with 5 different semens in her pantys.
For all you SPurs fans I know you can hate on Kobe or the Lakers all day , cool.
Just get some new jokes, the rape thing is slow and re ed.
Remember 5 different semens in her victoria secret.
He's in good position to win this year, leading a Laker crew who doesn't have a player as good as Dennis Rodman of Scottie Pippen in their prime.
Jordan without pippen:
Under .500% winning % in regular season
1-9 record in playoffs
0 playoff series wins
When I read the article, I was impressed with how legit and unique Kobe is, as one of those rare exceptional artists or athletes.
However, Kobe never learned how to be willing to lose or fail like the other greats did in their childhood to adulthood.
No doubt his exceptional skills and passion put him beyond just regular compe ors, but there are a lot of negative attributes to it. A la, refusing to lose. (Hence the free throws. And holding teammates captive long after practice finished til' he could school them again. I like how he terrorized some 5'7 scrub in high school. )
He also is so full of himself, he probably drowned five times already in his narcissism during his lifetime.
Michael Jordan had the same stuff, but I don't think he took it that serious. He knew, but he didn't have to prove it ten million times over in the manner, "Say it...Say it, Say I'm the best basketballer in the world.. SAY IT! " a la Kobe in 2006 when he texted 30 phone messages to Charles Barkley until Charles apologized and threw him a bone the next game day.
Kobe's megalomania w/ basketball = insane dictator in another life.
Dude, Kobe as plenty of time to win one without Shaq.
Kind of like how you've been classy and given the Spurs props?
I think most real fans respect Kobe but you picked the wrong moment and wrong time to do it.. if you didnt' want to get burned why did you post this in the first place and with those words along?
It's pretty stupid actually.
It's like if I go to a lakers forum and post something similar for Manu.
Now OFF
Oh wait Vaughn for 39 tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LMAO, what a joke....
Kobe cheats on his wife, along with 80% of the NBA players, you probably would too.....in the same situation......
I dont know him, care about him...whatever..
On playing the game we all love however.......
He is the greatest player on the planet and the reason the post season is exciting for a lot of people that enjoy B Ball
