Lakers: Lol Lakersground, Free Agency Edition

[ambchang]

This approach—Bryant likens it to the unpleasant task of telling a dinnermate he has “s--- in his teeth”—does not go over well all the time. Like with Dwight Howard, for example. Others appreciate it. During filming, Chopra interviewed a number of Bryant’s teammates, current and former, and he asked them to describe Bryant in three words. After each interview Kobe would text Chopra, eager to hear what people said. Most answered with some variation of “the ultimate compe or” or “killer instinct.” But when Chopra asked Steve Nash, he said something different. After thinking for a moment, Nash answered, slowly, in three beats: “Mother . . . f------ . . . a------.”

I'm always excited to see what kind of game winning shots and clutch shots Kobe will deliver especially when he's healthy enough to play... his best clutch-shooting season came during the 09-10 season... I think he's gonna have one of those years were he breaks the opponents back with his clutch shooting.... how many do you think he will make?

It's time to make a list of the guys that are going to eat crow once Kobe silences them this season. This is in no particular order. Let me know if I'm forgetting anything. This is Kobe's fuel so this is important. 1) ESPN leaves Kobe out of the top 10 Shooting Guards. 2) Soccer Coach Jurgen's saying Kobe contract undeserved: "This always happens in America.Kobe Bryant, for example -- why does he get a two-year contract extension for $50 million? Because of what he is going to do in the next two years for the Lakers? Of course not. Of course not. He gets it because of what he has done before. It makes no sense. Why do you pay for what has already happened?" 2) NBA 2K15 Will rank Kobe only at an 89...not in the 90s like old man role player(not even an All-Star) Duncan, Durant, or Lebron. 3) Klay Thompson's people say he is the best shooting guard(even better than Kobe). 4) Lebron leaves Kobe out of his Mt. Rushmore, does not join Lakers in free agency. 5) Bosh, Wade, and Carmelo does not join Lakers and Kobe in free agency. 5) NBA GM(likely Dan Gilbert): "Kobe has zero trade value." 6) Steve Nash: Kobe is a "a**hole* 7) Dwight Howard leaves the Lakers to join Harden. 8) Pau Gasol leaves for the Bulls to Join Derrick Rose. 9) Kevin Durant says Allen Iverson is the best pound for pound player of all time(not Kobe who is). 10) Dwyane Wade says Kobe is "Second best all time."

This guy is an idiot. Regarding #10 it's not a surprise that basically the whole forum over there deliberately misquoted Wade to manufacture controversy. Wade did not say Kobe is the 2nd best player of all time. He never said that. He said Kobe is now his 2nd favorite player to play against, after LeBron. That's a huge difference. But not a wonder that Kobe worshippers ain't able to see that.

Another gem. This time they're trying to estimate Kobe's points over the course of a season, including a game high. Some people are even expecting 27ppg or more

But this is the real kicker

Not sure who is predicting something that Kobe has never done before. Nobody is saying he is going to be averaging 30+ points per game anymore.

If Kobe can remain healthy (and that is a big if), I have seen nothing from his performance in the preseason that would preclude him from hitting the averages I am predicting. Even with his minutes in the low 30's, he currently has no solid second option, and is operating in an offense that has sets geared toward getting him good open looks from the perimeter. He will also be asked to handle the ball less (if his point guards remain healthy) and should be able to focus more on scoring from the post and defense (in theory).

If anything, I see his rebounds and assists dropping (both to the 4 range), but his scoring effectiveness will remain very good.

Total stats:
25.8 ppg (45.6 fg% in 32 to 33 mpg | 79 games)
34.6 3P%
84.1 FT%
4.1 rebounds
4.6 assists
1.0 spg
0.1 bpg

Since when 45% is very good? He has never been effective over the course of his entire career. All time leader in bricks . Kobe has never had a 25 PPG season playing less than 33 MPG.

Another one:

Last year this team was pretty bad I'll admit, but you're tellling me you are betting against a motivated kobe Bryant (the ultimate closer) Kobe carried the 2012-2013 harder than even Lebron did his Cav's in their heyday and I'm sure he's capable of doing it again (and arguably with more talent given the health of nash and dwight that year)

ultimate closer
at Kobe carrying a team
He was carrying them to a 9th seed until he got injured, after that they made the playoffs
Comparing him to LeBron

Doesn't Kobe have one of the worst records ever (shooting percentage) in terms of clutch play (no matter what you take, last 24 seconds or last two minutes) in the history of the NBA? ultimate closer

I think the lakers will win at least 25+ games this year. I have them pegged at aroun 32 games. No way will Kobe, or anyone for that matter, score 32 ppg this year.

Funny thing is, lakers win more of Kobe scores less.

Kobe Bryant - A

Dude is amazing. Still carrying a crappy team 4 years out of his prime. The front office should be ashamed, though Kobe is to blame as well due to his contract.

I dunno, I thought about giving Kobe a B+ but I couldn't do it. He's single-handedly keeping us in games until he runs out of gas.

I read that as well today. Was thinking of posting it here. Shooting 41/25/78 gets you an A on LG In addition to that: WS so far: 0.0 WS/48 so far: -0.018 Offensive rating: 99 Defensive rating: 121
What a bunch of delusional idiots. Most of them are Kobe fans first and Laker fans second (if at all). Imagine somehow Kobe signs elsewhere or gets trated (if some GM is dumb enough to take that contract)... you would have to deal with gazillions of numbnuts on your board...
