game recognize game.
Good thing nobody cares about diveball.
Jordan > Kobe
Maradona > Messi
Makes sense
Messi is a black guy and/or cholo?
Figured he wouldn't be such a blatant bandwagoner.
Messi is like the lebron: regular season MVP, then chokes in the world cup.
This also means the resident argy sucker is also now a laker fan.
lol messi.
Figures, he's been on stacked teams his whole career (DAF)
that's why he got injured last weekend imho.
From the article
Translation:La vicepresidenta de operaciones internacionales de la NBA, Kim Bohuny, ha aprovechado su presencia en Barcelona en el Campus Baloncesto sin fronteras, para entregarle a Messi una camiseta de los Lakers personalizada con su nombre y dorsal.
In other words, no, Messi hasn't said about being a Laker's fan. This is just another attempt from the NBA to expand its markets. Its publicity.The NBA vicepresident of international operations, Kim Bohuny, present at Basketball Without Borders in Barcelona, took the oportunity to give Messi a Lakers jersey with his name and number on it.
In fact I'd be surprised if he was a fan of basketball at all, except for perhaps watching Manu play once in a while like most Argies.
Stop jumping to conclusions you ing s!
most people would consider him white but IMHO he's pretty much mixed, like a hybrid of an asian and a white parents just like you pickle breath.
Not the best of examples.
Messi is technically and fundamentally brilliant, a complete player. LeBron isn't, he is more of a Didier Drogba.
Barcelona is not the Cleveland Cavaliers, they have a great roster of players in their prime - football is a team sport, it is often Americans that try to glorify individual players (to sell/market the games). LeBron does everything for Cleveland, handling the ball, scoring, dishing and garnering all the praises, therefore when his team fails it is on his head.
Messi does not have the luxury of Xavi and Iniesta (who are like the two best central midfielders in the world) playing behind him on Argentina - hence he struggled 'scoring goals' in the World Cup. He still created a ton of opportunities though, which is what he usually does at Barcelona when not scoring.
LOL! you don't know about soccer.
Messi has won at the highest level for Barca. Freaking Spanish and UEFA cups.
Those are equivalent to World championships.
The World Cup is like the olympic gold metal to Basketball players.
LOL! you don't know about football.
lol Comparing the NBA playoffs with the WC (on this case)
The WC is played every 4 years and with a team that is not the one you usually play with.
If you want to compare the NBA playoffs with anything football related it should be the Champions League, although that isn't accurate either.
However, looking past this, the Messi WC/Lebron PO comparisson isn't that bad, both had good individual performances but their teams didn't win it.
Cleveland Cavaliers = Argentina NT, not Barcelona.
He's probably a Cowboys and Yankees fan too.
