Parker and Especially Westbrook deserved to mske it over Kobe, Hardens D was just about as bad as Kobe's..

Despite his team struggling most of the season, he still had a really great individual season.

Too bad basketball isn't an individual sport. Someone should tell Kobe.

Not sure what your point is.

All NBA honors are individual awards, otherwise the first team all NBA should be comprised of all Miami and OKC players.

[TDMVPDPOY]

kobe has no business makn first team this year, if you going to award this clown, you might as well put 3 refs on the team since they are the clowns who got the lakers into the playoffs during the last month of the RS

this clown puts up meaningless stats like monte ellis....

[LkrFan]

But Spurs fans go kicking and screaming about how both Ginobili and Parker are future Hall of Famers.

SMH @ using the all NBA teams to discredit David Robinson, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobili only to prop up Duncan more than he already is as the accepted best PF in the history of the game, and then in other conversations yelling about how both Ginobili and Paker are HOFers.

Truth bombs.

[LkrFan]

Harden should have been 2nd team over Wade tbh.

[td4mvp2k]

living through other teams cause yours sucks so much

[Clipper Nation]

Kirby getting handed another lifetime achievement award on name alone, just like his joke of an MVP....

[Jeff Van Gundy]

This is a terrible way to put it.

A player, an individual, a star needs to play around a system that would benefit the team overall. It's this kind of mentality that creates the Jr smiths's the Kobe bryants of the league. Kobe bryant stat wise is a league ahead of a lot of player but has way to much of an ego. He at times is detrimental. Part of an Individual is his ability to POSITIVELY impact a team. Kobe is not even close, and by not even close, He's atrocious compared to Parker.

That said, anyone who says curry>kobe is a dumbass. Kobe is second team at best.

[Kidd K]

Wow, I'm very surprised Timmy got All NBA 1st team. I was hoping for 2nd Team but prepared for him being shafted to 3rd team. . .but he actually got the 1st T eam placement. Pleasantly surprised at that.

Timmy Deserved All NBA 1st Team defense more than All NBA 1st team imo. I thought that was a joke, but this sort of makes up for it. LeBron and Durant were obvious picks too for 1st team, and I can understand Kobe I guess. . .but I think Parker deserved that PG spot, not Chris Paul. No biggie though, 2nd team is still an honor for TP.

Kobe can't win for losing. He chucks up a lot of shots and his team loses, then he's a selfish player who doesn't make his teammates better. He shares the ball and racks a bunch of assists and they lose, he's old and washed up and can't take over a game anymore. No matter what happens, as long as the Lakers are losing, Kobe critics will twist it so that the blame falls squared on Kobe, right or wrong. Yes, the Lakers struggled this year and against a high degree of scrutiny because of what the expectations were with their acquisitions of Howard and Nash. But the fact remains that Kobe was still playing his tail off and still maintaining an elite level of play, particularly at his age, despite what his teammates were or weren't doing to help him. It's ridiculous to say he put up meaningless stats. Often times, he was the only one on his team actually giving a and putting in the appropriate level of effort to try to win games. Can he be a detriment at times when he feels he has to take over and shoot all the time? Absolutely. At times. But tell me the Lakers would have done better without Kobe and I know you're just full of it trying to discredit the guy out of hate or spite.

If basketball is a team sport, then winning and losing ultimately is a team accomplishment or failure and cannot be put on the shoulders of one player even if they are the franchise guy. When the Spurs win, it's not just Tim Duncan. It's not just Tony Parker. It's not just Ginobili. If they lose, vice versa.

Kobe deserved 1st team honors. Did Parker deserve it? Yeah, I'd say he deserved it too. But it's no travesty that Kobe got it over him. And it wasn't a lifetime achievement award. He earned it this year. Unlike the countless defensive honors he bogusly took, his all NBA first team selections are legit, this season included.

i hate kobe but you gotta give him props, is a true balla

I'm not hating on Kobe, unlike robdiza, I'm not going to say curry is better than kobe. That said, he never found the perfect balance. too much ego to play under a new system. I'm not doubting kobe's desire to win, but his at ude is detrimental to the team. If you played any decent basketball in your life, an egotistical captain can kill you desire to play good basketball.

that's kobe for you.

That said, I have him second team. Parker is just way too obvious of a choice to leave out.
