see what happens when you don't have to be front and center all the time and chuck the ball 25+ times hurting your team dumb dumb? you were a damn strong role player with a +15, took 10 great shots, passed the ball instead of being selfish, and only turned the ball over 3 times compared to your usual 5 or 6. good job.

havent seen kobe play with that pass first mentality in a while.. then again guys miss shots sometimes
It's ridiculous man, after seeing how he's just 1\4th the player he was last season, the sole purpose of getting Nash\Howard was to have Kobe take a more of a role player position. I can't believe this guy was talking about "my team" in the off season. I knew we were ed then
Its a little worrying to be honest. Kobe has the potential to be the best role player of all time. hopefully he wont realize the offense is better off going through the All star bigmen and HOF steve Nash.
Kobe is a legend wether you hate him or not, he's no role player. He just has fully indulged ever since the 5th ring and thinks he can do what he wants now. Which is why he wont ever get to 6....5 is still more than Duncan tho TBH and much more than any other superstar from his generation.
Kobe's been a great role player for Shaq, and a Top Notch Robin for Gasol, as evidenced by his 2 finals MVPs, that Gasol was nice enough to let him have, reminds me of the one Tim Duncan gave Parker in 07.also historically noted is Kobe's complete inability to carry his team to playoffs without SIGNIFICANT help. Kobe is more a cautionary tale about married black men ing white girls, than an NBA legend, tbh.
Yeah, he didnt carry Smush Parker\Walton\Kwame Brown to the playoffs back 2 back years and take the suns to 7 single handily
Lebron did more with less in Cleveland, tbh, but Lebron > Kobe as a real superstar so I guess thats to be expected.![]()
I dunno man, all I know is this. Kobe is the player EVERYONE hates around the NBA outside of Lakers fans. There's a reason for that...same reason I despise Tom Brady. He beats my teams ass year after year. It makes me so happy to see him lose, even though I know he's a legend.
I think Kobe has been a bit exposed this season, but you have to consider he was compared to Iverson\Tracy McGrady\Vince Carter\Dwyane Wade\Lebron and he has managed to win more than those guys and let's not forget....Lebron is in his prime now as Kobe is all but done. You know at one point every athlete gets old and some young buck makes him look bad. It's the way of life, Kobe did the same to Jordan at the end of his career, but that doesn't mean he's greater than Jordan.
hes consistently had better teams than all of those players. Kobe = Tmac, everything being equal. a really really good #2 guy.
Not sure if troll or SRS, cmon now, I understand the Kobe hate, he's a selfish player. But saying he's Tmac is re ed. T-mac couldnt pass the first freaking round with Yao Ming. You know if Kobe had Yao what would have happened...oh yeah but if he had Yao people would say but but he had Yao Ming. Obviously it's a TEAM game. Let's not pretend Duncan didn't have the likes of Robinson, Parker, Ginobli and phenomenal role players throughout his career.
that 121-125 record without Shaq or Gasol... that's superstar material?
Here catch up a bit:

Glorified Allen Iverson is the greatest coattailer of his generation. Now he's trying to live off more foodstamps from Dwight... the story of his career, tbh
Lakersarethebesteva bro the numbers dont lie. history doesnt lie. and the historical glasses, with contextual lenses give the clearest picture to be honest.
LOL Glorified Iverson...how many rings did he end up with?
As many as Kirby as the 'team leader', tbh... at least Iverson carried his team to the finals instead of 1st round exits or missing the playoffs entirely...
No need to get worked up about it, it's just the facts.
Yeah, let's just ignore the 7 trips to the finals 5\7 championships. He missed the playoffs therefore nothing counts. Like Magic did it all by himself in the 80's right?
Horry had 7 trips to the Finals and 7 rings too... Fish has one more Finals appearances and 5 ships too...
When you're coattailing better talent, it's not that complicated, tbh.
When he was handed the keys to the kingdom, bam, missed the playoffs, first round exits...
And I don't hate Kobe, so don't even go there. He's clearly one of the better #2 this side of Pippen, tbh.
LOL obvious troll, in 2008 with a bum Bynum, with an all star Odom, and nearly no one else on that team the Lakers got Gasol and magically made it to the finals. You're seriously overestimating how great Pau Gasol really is.
Oh my bad, Kobe had Crittenton, Ira Newble that year
14 assists holy is that his career high![]()
15 in 2002![]()
Kobe's unselfish play will not last more than one game.
My boi Kobe got the message imho. Look out, we back.
