Oh he gave away 2. And Duncan redeemed himself, went to Media and guaranteed a chip the very next year. And delivered.
Meanwhile, your Kobe played his last meaningful game at age 33. You know, back when you posted this. Do you remember posting that?
Nope, one cannot redeem what is lost to the ages:::Oh he gave away 2. And Duncan redeemed himself, went to Media and guaranteed a chip the very next year. And delivered.

Kobe: 5
the tired old bag Duncan: 2nd 5th
That's your opinion. Most normal people recognize that the 2014 NBA championship was one of the greatest, if not the greatest, redemption story in the history of sport.
You idiot, you. '13 cannot be redeemed. It's gonePERIOD He had to win his 5th NBA le twice. And you're gonna sit there and expect me to let him walk? No. I will not do it.That's your opinion.

You might want to look up the definition of redeem. Words have, like, meaning. Here, I'll use it in a sentence for you. Duncan redeemed the heartbreaking loss in '13 with one of the greatest redemption stories in the history of sport in '14. Those are just the facts.
Meanwhile, your Kobe is playing while retired. He should have retired back in '12, after his last playoff game (he was just 33 years young).
You're still a cement head I see.
lmcapitulatedao!
Serious question, Dale. Are you embarrassed by this stunt your Kobe is pulling, running to the media to announce his quit and then playing 60 more meaningless games for nothing but the attention, the chants in opposing arenas, the adulation of the media?
My guy reloaded and went back in and got it. Your guy quit.
Nothing Tim could have possibly done in his career could be worse than what Kobe is doing right now. That record, that dog and pony show, those meaningless minutes and those high potential rookies getting shat upon to parade Kobe around like a fat emperor.
Anyone who does such is seriously mistaken. He should have cut it off in training camp with a simple statement that he would determine his future after the season and would at no time entertain such questions before then. At that time if he did decide to retire make a statement thru his people and then be still.
He's beholden to people/corporations because of the rape. They're calling the markers now. He made his bed, we all have to lay in it.
No. Nothing is worse than giving back an NBA le after it's been won. They were selling your , D. They were stringing your ropes, D. It was over. I was lower than skunk , deciding whether I'd come in and take my medicine, or, just drift away. Then the roof fell in and Dale was saved.
I'm a lone voice though. Media forgave you, covered you, enacted a gag order on it. And that is comprehensive Media. Here, where you broke their in' hole,,,here they refuse to cite '13.
Like it never happened. That is centralized media, be it sports, or, news.
So you didn't tear up reading this?
Dear Basketball,
From the moment
I started rolling my dad’s tube socks
And shooting imaginary
Game-winning shots
In the Great Western Forum
I knew one thing was real:
I fell in love with you.
A love so deep I gave you my all —
From my mind & body
To my spirit & soul.
As a six-year-old boy
Deeply in love with you
I never saw the end of the tunnel.
I only saw myself
Running out of one.
And so I ran.
I ran up and down every court
After every loose ball for you.
You asked for my hustle
I gave you my heart
Because it came with so much more.
I played through the sweat and hurt
Not because challenge called me
But because YOU called me.
I did everything for YOU
Because that’s what you do
When someone makes you feel as
Alive as you’ve made me feel.
You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream
And I’ll always love you for it.
But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer.
This season is all I have left to give.
My heart can take the pounding
My mind can handle the grind
But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.
And that’s OK.
I’m ready to let you go.
I want you to know now
So we both can savor every moment we have left together.
The good and the bad.
We have given each other
All that we have.
And we both know, no matter what I do next
I’ll always be that kid
With the rolled up socks
Garbage can in the corner
:05 seconds on the clock
Ball in my hands.
5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1
Love you always,
Kobe
I wouldn't waste my time reading it. It all goes back to the rape. He was immaculate, on his way, limitless, boundless. He ed up there and it led to all these moments of regret. It went off the rails after the rape and he's never been able to get it back up there and he knew it. So, he been flailing ever since, because he knows it's spoiled and cannot be put right. That's the consequence of his rape.So you didn't tear up reading this?

It's akin to the Patriots story. Media cannot hold them accountable because if they do it eradicates all that has come before and yet to come. Madison Ave., NBA, Media will not permit that. So, "they" scold the Patriots, but, they don't tote up the ciphers, not in broad daylight, not for our "eyes"---our "hearts." That is what happened (albeit to a lesser extent) with the Spurs in '13. If Media lowers the boom on an immaculate Pop there-there is no way back. They'll always have to cite it, even in the good times to come.
It's just the way it is.
Only one line you need to read:
But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.
a.k.a. TOSB
Even there he is preemptive/presumptive as the season progresses. But, he could not resist coming off the starting line too early. Could not have stopped him with a gun. He wants to do everything (AT ONCE) because the pack of cards have not been in order since the rape. Before then it was all laid out before him, in impeccable order. It was all on him, and only him,,,and it was him who ed it up. And he knows it. So he just hodge podges thru it, running to & fro, banging into the furniture, make a spectacle. And "we" have to choose whether to stand with him in the spectacle(s),,,or, abandon him.
Me? You couldn't drag me away. I'll stand there,,,till I drop.
You're back!
No more gd reading room.
And how 'bout them Spurs, Cub? LMA is shining! Playing defense like he's never played it before. You better hope those boys from Frisco can do your dirty work, or it's gonna be...
6>5
I called it first way back. Your destination was the only one where he'd thrive. I knew that.
Yep, just have to hope it's derailed somehow,,,an act of God,,,a Muslim hit squad,,,I don't trust (man) to stop this.
Them Warriors might be pretty gd close to "God."
On a side note, is the talk radio over there buzzing with the Greinke pickup?
Word wrangling has Dale tied in knots and he cannot muster truth out of the chaos. Instead he opts to discuss the Patriots or drag some other red herring across the stage.
Yeah, I had to take that in' thing. I was flabbergasted. I got up in the middle of the gd nite and saw it! SOB. Mother ers. I coulda cried. I still could. Could be a problem.
You are right i was guilty to a degree as well shoild have offered the same patience i was giving Druss ...but ...
He was taking som horrific shots, Cully.
& the dogs have been called off since the retirement declaration. They're letting him have some air. Taking a little off instead of trying a little harder to stop him.
Thread should start supporting the Clippers now. Hey, he can rub it in ST's face a little bit since they beat the Spurs last year.
Cubby, what are you doing here? I thought I told you to go your mother.
