    ^ Kobe was a perfect immitation of MJ. But I guess that’s more of an exception. I don’t see any other player who fathomed their game with only one player. It’s normally a combination of several.
    Nope. He wanted desperately to be MJ, but the best I can do is ‘cheap knock-off’. He copied moves, but was a far less efficient player. MJ’s career FG% is .497. Kobe’s is ..447. The saddest facet of Kobe’s life wasn’t that he died young in that helicopter crash,it’s that he never became his own player, spending his career chasing the spectre of MJ.

    You need to read Three Ring Circus to find out how sad his ing life was for a couple of decades before he set foot on that helicopter.

    You equated the life of a wealthy 5 time nba champion as being sadder than his death and the death of his child ...that's all any rational person needs to read...

    A) I said nothing about his child at all.
    B) Read the book. Money isn't everything. Fame isn't everything. He was basically a messed up, obsessed person without a ing friend in the world. Not one.

    I haven’t read the book but in retirement Kobe appeared to be growing as a person.

    You're an idiot who has zero reading comprehension, and doesn't read for context, which makes you an idiot. You're the one who brought his daughter into this discussion, not me, which makes you a liar.

    You're dismissed, wit.

    You're quote "The saddest facet of Kobe’s life wasn’t that he died young in that helicopter crash,it’s that he never became his own player, spending his career chasing the spectre of MJ."

    Reading comprehension isn't the problem.... now back to your sad existence ...

    Reading comprehension from the guy who posts links supporting the argument of the person he is debating….

    Yeah ex is being dumb. So he never became Jordan? That’s the saddest part of his life? That isn’t very sad. He became the most beloved man in LA. He became amazing friends with Michael. He played 20 years of ball and won 5 rings, 2 FMVPs, an MVP and 12 all defense and like 15 all nba. But bc his field goal percentage was low, it’s a reminder that he never became Mike?

    Kobe was his own man at the end of his career. Doesn’t matter what book you read about him. He grew out of it, started a very successful company, won an Oscar, had more money than any other basketball peer of his, and had an amazing wife and children that he was totally involved in their life

    Kobe’s saddest moment wasn’t he never became Mike. That’s just the most re ed statement I’ve even heard. It was when the helicopter was about to crash and he realize his daughter was in danger. Or the first time one of his kids got sick or hurt. Maybe his wife was in pain about something either caused by him (like Colorado) or just something else she was going through like a miscarriage. Shallow sadness is your job. True sadness is your loved ones in pain or passing away.

    KJ and #9 for Ivey or whoever is left between Holmgren or Banchero? I’d really miss KJ but this is a no brainer.
