Jordan got his Daddy killed because of his belligerent gambling addiction.
Tim is a center deal with it. He has played more minutes, signifcantly more minutes at the 5 than he has at the 4 since 2003.
Jordan got his Daddy killed because of his belligerent gambling addiction.
Oh, were you there?
Were you?
And to be honest, nobody really knows. I do know however that if Kobe ing Bryant wants to have sex with a girl who showed up for her sexual abuse exam with four different semen samples in her gut, he doesn't have to rape her.
Look, ......Were are talking about who is the better player not who is the better role player.
Kobe was/is better at both.
and you said that Rodman was the better player in your first post. so stfu.
Wait, the team we keep knocking around made it to the finals? Where's a rope to hang myself!?
WoW...Uncalled for. If you read more posts, it says he's better as of now, Simply b/c Pau hasn't finished his career. Who knows if Pau will just up and deteriorate in two years. Rude, amazing how much power ppl feel being behind a computer. Good day sir.

Haha, you're a fvckin' idiot. Kobe changed his number because Adidas, his former shoe endorser, was starting to resell his previously released shoes, which still had the number "8" on them, insinuating they were still selling Kobe's. That didn't go over too well with NIKE, his current shoe endorser, so they brought about the change. Asshat.
As for comparing Kobe to Jordan, nobody had even mentioned Kobe's name until you brought it up, so stop going outta your way to hate on the guy. Just the fact that you even brought it up shows you that he's at the very least in the discussion. How many Spurs have ever been compared to the best player on the planet?
Watch the Kobe interview with Stephen A. Smith on espn.com, where Kobe goes out of his way to dodge those comparisons, which by the way are solely created by unimaginative media who have nothing better to talk about and need to fill radio time and sports columns. Last time I checked, having the label as "best ever" was a matter of opinion, and has never been rewarded with any type of ring or trophy.
MJ was MJ, and we'll never see any player accomplish what he did in only 13 full seasons. Kobe is Kobe, and just leave it at that.
The commonly given reason has nothing to do with your statement. It's more along the lines of getting back his high school number.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2421874
I also remember an interview which I cannot find that would explain the high school number, but it's unavailable at this time. So, I won't get into that.
His number. The league allows number changes. Get the over it.
First of all, you're trying to explain how he chose the number 24, I'm explaining why the number change was necessary.
Second, his high school number was 33 at Lower Merion High. Nice try though.
Actually, he wore both numbers in high school.
I know what he wore in high school, why would I post an article and not read it?
#8, not #24 was worn b/c of D'Antoni, I was thinking it was #24.
I've never seen anything about endorements being the reason, if you can prove that then it's fine with me. I guess we'll never know why he wore 24 in high school originally....![]()
The conspiracy theorist in me always kinda thought that with the whole Colorado thing, combined with the fact that people had been buying his jersey since 96-97, maybe his people were just trying to improve his jersey numbers. At the time, I believe his jersey was like #50 something among popular selling sports jerseys in America.
We all know the NBA's all about marketing. If you look at how Shaq's jersey numbers went up once he got traded to Miami, then again to Phoenix, you'll see what I mean.
I understand, theories are cool, I always like to consider them. , my statement on why he wears 24 is a theory LoL. But, to go back to the old number makes me think why he originally decided to wear it. It could be a new beginning thing more than anything (In regards to why he changed it in the league). Especially seeing as how #33 would never be available b/c of Jabbar.
You know what? You're a cool cat. My apologies for snapping at you earlier. It's amazing how quickly a cranberry juice with some Grey Goose can calm a person down, haha.
Again, my bad bro.
AH it's Coo man, no issue here, I appreciate the apology. I guess I would've had to do something to offend you from the get go. So for that i'm sorry. Online is sort of like driving, there's a wall there so it's easy to lose control quickly. Road Rage is equivalent to Online Rage in a way, in regards to how you can just move on quickly so it's simple to let emotions get the best of you. I'm guilty of that but i'm doing better these days.
On a side note, 99 Cheeries, with Cherry Limeade by MinuteMaid is a nice choice. You can add as much of the 99 Cherries as you want and it seems as though it never gets stronger. Goose is smooth, you can never go wrong there LoL.
Haha, you got that right. I gotta try that 99 Cherries though, I've never had that.
Everytime I get a little loose in a thread, I remember what a buddy told me once: "Arguing on the Internet is like competing in the Special Olympics; even if you win, you're still re ed." Not exactly words of wisdom, but pretty easy to remember, haha.
.....
...I'll definetly remember that, especially around here. Special Olympics... LOL
Rodman guarded Shaq a lot in the '96 Bulls-Magic series.
Drove him absolutely nuts, too.
Rodman > Gasol
welcome to internet forums. quit crying like a and stfu.
You're right, i'm wrong, allow me to go cry in the corner. Oh my, i'm speaking to a real basketball genius. LOL
I wonder how many games you've played with a Uni past the boys and girls club. LOSER.....Just stay a fan lol
