A 'hood rat' named Kevin doing white water rafting is probably high up there in most embarrasing moments in American history
It's "You've got to stand for something, or you'll fall for anything" or "stand for something, don't fall for nothin'" you dip . LOL Kevin trying to sound intelligent.
Aren't family reunions crazy though?
19. Kobe Bryant - Soccer
Besides being a successful basketball player, Kobe Bryant is a major soccer fan. He says if he hadn't pursued basketball, he would have gone for soccer. (As a note, if you google 'Kobe Bryant hobbies,' the question comes up "Besides being a rapist, what are some of Kobe Bryant's other hobbies?" Yikes. We here are NotSoBoringLife do NOT condone such "hobbies!")
Truth bomb
I hate that long legged freak
lol what a inIt's "You've got to stand for something, or you'll fall for anything" or "stand for something, don't fall for nothin'" you dip . LOL Kevin trying to sound intelligent.
Letīs see Duncan played with: Iverson, Marbury, Wade, Boozer, Anthony, James, Okafor, Marion, Stoudemire, Duncan, Odom, Jefferson.
Kobe with: Boozer, Kidd, James, Williams, Redd (healthy), Wade, Howard, Bosh, Paul, Prince, Anthony.
Helps playing with Kidd, Williams, Paul, Howard, Bosh instead of Marion, Okafor and Jefferson...
It also helps not having Iverson or Marbury on the team
True.It also helps not having Iverson or Marbury on the team
Great point redeem team was better.
But Melo, Lebron and wade was on the team that lost the World's the year before ...though the coach did a ty job of managing minutes.
And if duncan is the all time PF and a better player than Kobe should he have not played better even if they could not bring home Gold?
Look Duncan is a badass and to be honest I dont put much stock in Olympics when comparing the two ...but this sounds like excuses ...he was one of the most dominant big men of his era ...zone etc should not of stopped him especially with his bankshot.
One more thing on Olympics duncan was on a ty team with ty coaching.
Coaches do NOT get enough credit Duncan and Kobe would still be great without PJ and Pop but I bet you they have at least 1 or 2 less rings ...
Duncan's "failures" in the Olympics are over exaggerated. He led the team in points, rebounds, blocks, and shot 60 percent from the field, so I don't know why Duncan gets the blame for the team failing to capture gold.
As DoK alluded to, Starbury and Iverson were terrible, more so Iverson, who basically was a ball stopper on offense and didn't do much else besides over dribble and hoist up bad shots. Furthermore, Lebron and Melo, who played great when they got a chance, saw limited court time, Brown choosing to give the aforementioned chuckers more minutes for who knows what reason.
Melo, Lebron and Wade were also in the 2004 team.
great in' roster
Lol A.I. 38 percent against Euro honkies.
Sons Duncan ain't even an American I don't care what they tell you. Just like Obama that porch monkey was born somewhere else so none of this should matter.
God bless you and your family, son. I don't mind you hating on Duncan as long as you know how fraudulent the Long Legged Mack Daddy and Kirby Bryant are.
Sons even someone like me who's been pretty liberal his entire life knows the Long Legged Mack Daddy and his wife Jezebel are both frauds.
I'm pretty liberal myself, more so socially liberal but fiscally conservative (not the bas ized Neo Con brand of "fiscal conservatism" that doesn't mind spending trillions on national defense and nation building. I'm an old school Grover Cleveland Alexander style fiscal conservative. I say cut out all unnecessary defense spending as well as these "progressive" social programs that do more to create dependence rather than create opportunity) and I can't stand Obama and the modern democratic party, either.
The modern Democratic party doesn't stand for or believe in jack . All Democratic politicians like Obama or Pelosi or Harry Reid do now is take a position that's a tad more liberal than the position Republicans take so they can pass themselves off as "bi-partisan" and try to get more votes by having "moderate" views.
Every top player in the NBA during 04' save Duncan refused to play during the olympics...KG, Shaq, Tmac, Kidd, and Kobe all turned down invites. In 08' all of the top players went because they felt that obligation to redeem the USA. It is beyond stupid to even compare those two teams, just talent wise.
Then you also look at the coaching and its not really that surprising to see why the USA didnt win. AI and Marbury, two known ball-stoppers were getting big minutes because they were veterans while s like Wade and LBJ were riding the bench. Jefferson was inexplicably starting while Melo rode the bench as well. Brown's lack of trust in young guys really came back to bite him in the ass in those olympics. Not to mention that during the 08' Olympics Wade was actually the best player on that team, Kobe's clutchness in the Final doesnt really change that. People like to ignore that to prop up Kobe though, very similar to how they ignore that Shaq was the best player on the Lakers during his first three les.
I've said time and time again that TD without NBA refs is no superstar. International play has proved my theory.
As much as Kobe gets bashed on here, how can anyone explain a TD-led team not winning a gold medal? People say Kobe shot ty during the games. I say his intensity brought Melo, Wade and LeBron to another level defensively. He led by example and the class of 2003 followed suit. Tough shots with the game on the line? No sweat. Kobe took and made those shots. Although that won't be talked about around these parts.
Lastly, for those that say if TD replaced Kobe, he would have led the 2005-2006 Lakers to at least the WCF, the 2004 Olympics' Bronze medal laughs at you. How could he not win at least Silver with LeHype, D-Whistle and Melo on the same roster. And you think he could get Smush, Brian Cook, and Kwame out of the first round against the loaded Suns? He had to cheat (Horry) to get by them with his own team in 2007.
Kobe had legal troubles in 2004. That's why he didn't play. Even with that TD had more than enough help and should have won gold. No excuses.
Your theory that Shaq was their best player during their 3peat years is partially true. Against the likes of New Jersey (Finals), Indiana (Finals) I agree with you. Against the likes of Portland and San Antonio, I disagree with you. Kobe owned you guys and the Blazers. Shaq? Not so much.
Proved it how exactly? Oh, you mean the fact that Duncan's stats in FIBA play are better than glorified Latrell Spreewell's?I've said time and time again that TD without NBA refs is no superstar. International play has proved my theory.

And lol at "Kobe bringing another level of intensity to Lebron and Wade's defense." Last time I checked, Kobe didn't play for the Heat and Lebron and Wade still bring it defensively.
And another lol at shooting 30% against Angola.
