Isn't Kobe the one getting 30 million dollar year in the future?
Isn't Kobe the one getting 30 million dollar year in the future?
There are teams out there that would pay more for his services tbh.
He has taken and continues to take less than he is worth.
He is giving them a discount..
in 2011 he avg'd 13/9 in a full season
in 2012 the asterisk season he avg'd 15/9 - he managed 1 more basket/pgso it's a wash from regular to shortened season.
based on his declining production I expect his numbers to continue to rapidly drop:
2013 he'll be 11/8 making 11.3 million
2014 he'll be 9/7 making 11.3 million
2015 he'll be 7/5 making 11.3 million
the Spurs are basically ed...they resigned Diaw of all people
Toothless Jack is on the roster along with Patty Cake and Vomit Rapist
Splitter and Blair are straight trash and Manu's bald spot is growing bigger...
These guys are a a laughing stock..Pop is so impatient..He wanted to win it all this past year and signed all these rejected players to make a play-off run this past season leaving himself with no flexibility this off-season...
Huge difference between be Laker and Spur Brass...our guys are actually smart...Spurs are still to squeeze one last ounce of juice out of the bag they tanked for back in 1998
@the Spurs for not knowing how to rebuild after the tank job
Duncan averaged 13/9 in 2011, then 15/9 in 2012, so the logical thing is to expect his production to rapidly drop.
Simply logical.
Regulated already in the first reply...
2013 17/9
2014 19/9
2015 21/9

duncan isnt getting younger, like even when he runs he looks ing old
Thanks for letting us know.
lakers fans talking to spurs fans because of duncan resigning when they have kobe and nash in their roster
pennies for LA, big bucks for SA
TOSB Lakers saying Spurs tanked reaching WCF
Kobe's salary half of the team cap
Lakers signing Nash and going after 40 year old Grant Hill
Closeout games are kinda easy
Getting blocked for Howard by Bynum
Sessions difference maker
Troy Murphy big signing last summer
$30 million for that TOSB Kobrick isn't "pennies" no matter what your TV deal is, tbh... terrible contract...
I don't know how old you are but I like your bravado and confidence No matter how misguided. The kobrick stuff is unoriginal but can't wait to see how much swag u have left when the Clippers curse strikes again. Temper those expectations. I lived in LA for 20 years that franchise is cursed
Says a guy who has Kobrick in his team.
Lkers
LAL 200 mil extra a year, projected 900mil net worth
Pennies for somebody that fills seats and attracts opportunity.
Repulses opportunity too, though.
(Kobe's delusional belief that he'd be the alpha on a Lakers team including Dwight.)
So based on your logic, since he didn't decline this past season from the one before, he's absolutely going to steadily decline over the next three.
Yeah, that makes perfect sense. Oh wait, it doesn't.
Also, if you think it's a "joke" they re-signed Diaw, then you clearly didn't watch many Spurs games and should probably not be speaking about them anymore if you care about people here laughing in your face for being a complete imbecile. Diaw was excellent on the Spurs last season. Most Spurs fans (if not all) considered him to be a priority re-sign along with Duncan.
As for "Toofless Jack", he has only one year left on his deal and is an easily tradeable asset.
Comments about Splitter/Blair/Manu were clearly garbage.
As for offseason flexibility, what point is there in the Spurs having any? Free agents don't go to San Antonio. Nobody who is a Spurs fan expects to get Dwight Howard or some . Spurs don't get prime free agents. Those guys all either go to the biggest 5 markets, or they will go to garbage markets for max deals they don't deserve.
As for the difference between the Spurs and Lakers, is that a joke? Intelligence? lmao. You dumb , the only positive difference in LA's favor is that they're based in LA where people want to go for exposure and movies, and have more cash to throw around because of it. That's it. Lakers have clearly drafted like utter dog 90% of the time, and 100% of their "good front office moves" revolve solely around them paying out a ton of money or getting interest from someone who wanted to make movies.
Your points are flimsy and weak. Completely devoid of competence.
Team = Franchise = Business
Kobe, for whatever reason, is the most famous active player in the world. He might throw a wrench in the cog wheels for improving the team but his contributions to the financial success of LAL is invaluable and means Lakers can continue to buy a better roster instead of build one.
Whatever cons he brings are insignificant from a business standpoint.
Kobe' salary kills our cap but keeps lining Buss's pockets. Lebron has long surpassed Bryant on the court (at least the last 3 seasons) But Kobe makes more money for the Lakers (and the NBA) than Lebron PROBABLY will. Maybe because his arrogance doesnt factor as much overseas ...but internationally Kobe is beloved. Phillipines and China especially. Europe maye not as much so because Kobe is so shot happy but the s (affectionately) and the flips (ditto) easily outnumber the Europeans. Heck China alone does ... that being said no one probably deserves $30 million in the NBA right now, not even Lebron (but he has the best case right now) But it's like back-owed child support. Magic, MJ Kobe all were bargains in their primes and overpaid a bit on the back-end.
Never quote someone who's name is pinked. They are ethereal, spirits, not real and such.
why tf are you mad at duncan's new contract ?
