    Make it happen Mitch!!!



    The Lakers star said Anthony, the Knicks’ MVP candidate, is the “most difficult” guy for him to guard in the league, even harder than LeBron James, he told ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith on Tuesday.


    “For me?” Bryant said. “Yeah….”
    “I’m [180 pounds] soaking wet,” said Bryant, who is Melo’s teammate on Team USA. “Going up against that bull, it’s fun, but it’s hard.”

    When the Knicks went on a roll with Lin and every started bashing Melo....Kobe straightened Melo out and Melo says he's eternally grateful for Kobe:

    "Everybody said, 'Well, they're better without Carmelo,' and all this nonsense," Bryant said. "You guys really put the hammer on him, and as a result, he kind of got a little gun shy and a little self-conscious about things.

    "I asked him, 'What's going on? What the are you doing?' I said, 'Do what you do best.'"

    Last week, Anthony recalled the conversation he had with Bryant.
    "He was just like, 'What's wrong? You know you're not healthy. Just make sure you get healthy and come back and do what you've got to do. Try not to worry about what's going on, what's being said and just play basketball,'" Anthony said. "'You know what you can do. You know what you're capable of. Go from there.'


    "At that point in time it was something that was good to hear, especially coming from a guy like that."
    "Melo does it all and he's as strong as a bull," Bryant said told ESPN's Stephen A. Smith

    all this means is that we now have a real opportunity to solidify our bench even further by signing K-Mart...I'm still praying we sign Barbosa and Martin to deepen our Bench even further....

    if this happens and Obama wins re-election I think I just might turn gay as in happy

    Kobe
    Dwight
    Nash
    Pau
    Artest
    Hill
    Jamison
    Meeks
    Barbosa
    K-Mart
    Blake
    E-Banks

    just ing sick...just ing sick...

    Do It Mitch...Just ing Do It Man!!!!

    In an interview with Alex Kennedy of Hoopsworld, Bryant said:
    I would actually like to play with Melo. Championships are won on the inside and I’m always thinking about winning the le. I would love to play with Melo because I would know that I have an inside presence. That’s really been the biggest strength with our Lakers team.

    Kobe and Melo both are beasts in the post. The Lakers have bigs that can hit 15-17 footers to provide unique spacing - ala the Bulls back in the day. People like to joke around about MJ winning without a 20-10 center, but the reality is, MJ and Pip were the best perimeter players in the game - who just so happened to have really good post games. Go to the block and score at will or kick out to open bigs that can knock down jumpers. Same effect as throwing it down low to a dominant big and having him kick it out to a shooter.

    Like Kobe, Melo is a closer. Melo is someone that will command double and triple teams. In tandem, they would put a lot of pressure on defense because of how lethal they are on the block and the fact that they both have legit midrange games and 3pt range.

    I imagine even Wade and Bron having a hard time guarding these two at the end of quarters/games. We know Wade can't handle Kobe on that low block, and I'd imagine Bron having issues Melo down there as well (because other than blind side blocking, his low post defense sucks). This is where Miami would get exposed.

    Farmers on here like to joke around about a Kobe/Melo pairing, but the reality is not too many defensive tandems will be able to handle these two. Including Bron and Wade.

    Kobe has every reason to want Melo in LA so he would have a rival competing against him for the lowest FG% of the team.

    No way Kobe and Melo can keep their egos in check. Who takes the last shot... and if its a miss, who takes the blame. Pau has been the whipping boy long enough

    non-issue, you believe kobe can still play that ball-hogging style as he used to? Melo would be brought in as a partner to Kobe but he'd later find himself being made a successor to him, like J to K in man in black.
