Kobe Wants 'Old-School' Defensive Rules To Return

[Killakobe81]

Today's star guards.....Kobe, Wade, etc. wouldnt last a day in the 80's NBA style of play...

Foolish.
no one is saying that MJ was NOT the GOAT ...

But how in the world would Wade (for example) or Derrick rose not destroy Ainge or Hornacek or any of the slow white or even black guys that were STARTING 2 guards in the NBA i
In the 80's thy had better teams and better offensive talent and the league wasnt dilluted by expansion ...but guys today are bigger faster and stonger. Not BETTER but you have to be moronic not to concede that ...


But Wade, Kobe, joe johnson, roy would destroy almost all NBA 2 guards of that era you guys that cant see that don't know anout basketball.

this forum is really going to it would be depressing if it were not so comical ...

I wish the truly knowledgable fans would chime in on this ...

And those that say (Lebron for example) couldnt get 30 in the old rules are full of ..

Greatness is trancendant and in the 80's/early 90's only Karl Malone, chocolate Thunnder artis gilmore, Mo Lucas and Oakley maybe were as strong as Lebron appears ...

NONE of those guys are anywhere NEAR as quick Lebron would be a great player in Mj's or ANY era or any rules ...he just needs to keep improvinh his fundamentals and post-game.

crofl
even if the lakers win this game

what we are witnessing is what kobe is when players are actually able to play defense on him, much less 'old school'
what a full of crap whining little pussy.....he wants old school defense back so his fg% will stay at its natural 33%

So let me get this straight.

Kobe wants the pussy foot rules for 8 years of his prime, then as he starts declining he wants the hard rules put back in for his successors?

Ive never seen a player so obssessed with being remembered. Kobe has cememented himself in the top 15 and thats about as high as he is going to go. Sorry.
