Kobe on his critics

[history2b]

The difference being that the Lakers are forced to have a short rotation, due to them having no bench. Lol, history your getting a real chance to get this thread in classics. Please continue.

On the contrary they've simply had an injured bench all season.

Meanwhile this Laker team just won the last 2 Finals with nearly the same rotation. Our rotation is proven.

You guys cling to irrelevant crap from yesteryear when Duncan was actually good and the hope that guys like Matt Bonner, Dejuan Blair and Gary Neal can lead you to the promise land.

I'm bookmarking this thread right now. I hope you all do the same. Your thinly veiled comment about this becoming a classic thread is your hope that I am wrong about this and you look forward to bring it up come June.

Hehe, you have no idea what you're in for tough guy.

Lakerfan getting pooped on

Says the idiot who thinks the Spurs have 3 all-stars....

[jjktkk]

You'd have to ask Pop.

I'd imagine that he decides what he does based on what he sees, just like he did before the advent of advanced statistics, lending some consideration to trends but never the guiding factor.

Like I said before, anyone who wants to talk game and immediately goes to the stat sheet is an absolute idiot, when you could just GOOGLE the stats. Damn people, don't any of you know how to GOOGLE?

Steve Blake defensive prowess?

You're a Blazers fan now?

As busted up you claim Duncan is, he's still better than "2nd best center" Andrew Bynum....

[djohn2oo8]

He's a Steve Blake fan

[ElNono]

He's a Steve Blake fan

He is a fundamentally solid defender.

I still can't stop laughing about that...

Why would acknowledging LaMarcus Aldridge's domination of Tim Duncan make me a Blazers fan? Wow you are one stupid kid.

Bynum missed way too many games to even be considered. Definitely not all-star worthy either.

As if telling me Bynum isn't an all-star is going to hurt my feelings. I'm not a dumb homer fan like all you dorks riding Spurs jocks harder than groupies outside the locker room on game day.

Duncan wasn't even the primary defender on Aldridge in this game..he actually didn't face up with him much at all in this game..showing 1 or 2 instances where Tim got beat on a help rotation is silly..

NBA scouts have shown that Steve Blake is a horrid defender..you love using "NBA people" as your argument..why are you ignoring it in this case?..

I don't believe the Spurs are going to win anything, but you're the same guy that predicted that they would be an 8th seed or whatever..it has been proven that virtually every prediction you make about the NBA is false, and most of your general observations about the NBA are false and stupid..

You also don't post after Lakers losses, particularly during their previous losing streak..you started posting when they were winning, and when Midnight Pulp left the forum, since he constantly owned you..

Because you're getting all giddy about one good game Aldridge, a Blazers player, had against Duncan? (who as HH correctly points out didn't even guard him that much at all)

This is what Lakerfan has come down to... vicariously living off other team's accomplishments, since their own team can't back up the they talk.

Bynum missed way too many games to even be considered. Definitely not all-star worthy either.

As if telling me Bynum isn't an all-star is going to hurt my feelings. I'm not a dumb homer fan like all you dorks riding Spurs jocks harder than groupies outside the locker room on game day.

what are you babbling about? Who said anything about All-Star?

Lakerfan going on some meltdown over something I didn't even say.

They can all kiss my ass.

Real original Kobe...

Which one of Michael Jordan's interviews do ya'll reckon he stole this one from?

[Killakobe81]

Steve Blake is not avery good defender, but he is the backup PG on the Lakers.

Tim Duncan (though not the star carrying the Spurs this season) is the franchise player for the Spurs ... HUGE difference.

My guess Tim pulls out a vintage performance tonight Bynum or not.
Ill say 22 and 12 ...

[DPG21920]

I understand the basic trash talking about Tim. Heck, I even understand saying he has declined. But his numbers have not been impacted greatly and he has altered his role and game and still performs at a high level.

[ElNono]

Hey, it wasn't me bringing up Duncan when talking about Blake... you can talk to that history2bs tool over there.

I don't know if he's going to get the minutes for that. Pop knows it's just a regular season game.

[HarlemHeat37]

Duncan is by far the biggest reason that the Spurs have been a top 10 defensive team this season..the D is 5 points worse when he leaves the floor, which is #1 on the team by a decent margin..

Nice work history2b I see you been wrecking shop on these ho's... but here's some advice my pops told me that I still struggle with...

Never argue too long with an idiot they will only bring you down to their level and then beat you with stupidity...

[Koolaid_Man]

Owned.

awww Punchy Baby....

[ALVAREZ6]

wow, this is unreal, i need to start a new thread.

[Man In Black]

SO KOOL...Would you call Steve Blake(r) a fundamentally sound defender?

Whatever you say...will be put on record. Sometimes...you fools will back each other up but c'mon man, if you slant that way...we might as well just call your whole group, Kool-AIDS because you all got a disease.
