    Not pictured: Kobe accepting a Bronze Medal! BAAAAAAHHHAAHAHA!!!
    This was Kobe that same year:





    2003 Tim Duncan Finals MVP and ring
    2004 Kobe loses to Chauncey Billups and Rape Trial
    2005 Tim Duncan Finals MVP and Ring
    2006 Shaq Ring, Kobe loses to Steve Nash. 2 games in a row Lamar Odom was the high scorer of the game
    2007 Tim Duncan Ring

    Pretty sure that bronze medal in the middle of those rings beats a rape trial in the middle of those losses

    I’m not sure what article you are reading. There were only two quotes about kobe that wasn’t from kobe.

    One is from coach k saying he set the tone. The other is kids about everybody getting better and how kobe and Lebron benefited from playing against each other.
    Apparently a different article altogether. Your statement is an all out falsehood. You even mistook Colangelo’s quote for Coach K. Coach K isn’t even quoted in the article. The article even starts out with Nate McMillan quotes about Kobe’s killer instinct being a reason he and the other players didn’t know each other well. But in the end, McMillan asked Kobe to be a leader to help the team get cohesion. Not Kobe quotes. The quote you attributed to Coach K again was Colangelo, and it wasn’t just one quote. Not Kobe quotes. LeBron had a quote about being impressed about Kobe lighting up Pau Gasol on a pick and his at ude of winning at all costs. Not a Kobe quote. And you mentioned Kidd’s quote but did some interesting editing. Still not a Kobe quote.

    More than two quotes about Kobe not by Kobe.

    You’re going to question someone else’s objectivity after blatantly spewing lies? Goood one.

    I liked Kobe as a player. Have zero emotion about Kobe as a person, teammate, husband, father, friend, business person. I don’t care about him in that regard. From everything I can tell, I figure he’s a socially awkward recluse who tries too hard to be cooler than he is. Not much different from Tiger Woods’ personality. I don’t think I would like him personally if I met him. I think he’s weird. And he probably rape. But for all the Kobe stans get, Kobe haters are just as bad to me. Warping facts, finding ways to hate just to hate. You really think you’re objective when it comes to Kobe? You lied about ing quotes in a Kobe article just to hate on Kobe. ing quotes in an article. Either that or you need better reading comprehension on the heels of you criticizing my lack of reading comprehension.

    Suuuuurely objective of you there...

    Apologies in switching coach k with Colangelo. But point still stands. Nate was talking about kobe being a loner. No where did it say it helped the team Redeem itself

    Read my original quote before you shoot off. I never said the article didn’t have any other quotes. And since you have issues about following threads, it was in refernence to How kobe made team USA better, which was the point of the article.

    All the quotes about how great kobe was and how he helped resurrected team USA and made other players were by kobe himself, outside of the two I quoted. And you are confirming that.

    And lies? What lies? Kidd clearly stated Lebron and kobe made other better. Colangelo said he set the tone by diving for a lose ball (like How Kurt rambis set the tone for the lakers I guess), what else is there? Kobe talking about how other players followed his lead?nate saying he asked kobe to be a leader (which he should be given his tenure)? How is that redeeming team USA? Care to tie those points together without the kobe quotes?

    Interesting. Laker fan always points to this as a Kobe OG moment. Apparently faked for the camera just like most of what happens in Hollywood.

    Kobe is quoted. Most of the quotes are not Kobe’s.

    Nate McMillan, Jason Kidd, LeBron, Colangelo. They were quoted a bunch. React to the “narrative” however you feel. You don’t have to misrepresent the article to feel a certain way. Early in the article, it even expressly says how Kobe was a loner that the other players didn’t really know. And it suggests they didn’t particularly like him either going into the Olympics.

    While some fans will always bash and discredit Kobe no matter what, most of his peers, teammates, coaches, and guys who played and coached against him seem to have a sincere level of respect for him as a player and compe or. Kobe isn’t anyone’s best friend. He’s weird. But guys like LeBron and Wade appear to hold him in pretty high regard. Maybe they’re pushing some narrative too...
    I honestly think his influence has a lot to do with it. He always had a huge market, a huge legion of fanboys, and the media backing him. It's natural for peers to not speak out against someone with such a strong backing, and that's with any profession.

    There was an Olympic year, I don't remember if it was '08 or '12, when he clearly wasn't the best player but the narrative was still that it was "his team". Still jacked up the most shots at a pretty low efficiency even though other guys were crazy efficient. Too lazy to look it up, but I want to say it's the year he was desperately trying to be the hero against Spain and DWade had the bail his ass out.

    Nothing says "leadership" quite like shooting 1-7 from three against China and 0-8 from three against Angola - Angola! - while LeGOAT and Wade carry your sorry ass.
    You misspelled "D-Whistle" (the self admission that he the 3rd best shooting guard of all-time):



    Even he know he ain't better than the Black Mamba
