co-sign nikka is too selfish to rest for his team though. Imagine a 33 year old mike playing in the 96 olympics :mjpls:

At this stage Kobe has absolutely nothing to prove. Let another young cat have a chance, sit your ass down, get some sleep, enjoy your kids, stay away from basketball for a good month and live the Dream. Then come to training camp well rested and ready to go through another grueling NBA season.

Training camp is like 2 1/2 months away. It going to be here quick.

Be ready to win another NBA championship. You don't need another Gold medal

Kobe has played in the Olympics once. Bron, Wade and Melo are going to their third. Let the dude Kobe go while he still can.

I hate to say it, but there's no way that current Lakers roster is winning a ring this year. Might as well get some gold Kobe. But last time Kobe won a gold medal, we remember what happened the next season. :yes:

If Kobe had only rested during the summer, he might have not broken down at the end of NBA season :mjpls:

Niqqas need to know when to chill and give their body a fukin break

usa might not won gold if he didnt go :yeshrug:

Was the gold worth potentially a career ending injury? In all reality this type of injury should be a career ender. But Kobe's work ethic is so relentless he'll make it back on some level. I think the next Stage in Kobe's career could be 6th man, if he's willing to humble himself to that role. He could be a scary scary 6th man, if his pride lets him go there :manny:

you act like he played huge minutes in London or something... and its not like they played a lot of games either

he would have been playing some basketball during the summer at some point, why not play internationally in the last end of your career and win something relevant?

It's Kobe fans like you who haters use as as excuse to hate on Kobe. Everything revolves around Kobe with you all, he's all you see. Of course a video edited to only show Kobe's highlights will make it look like he "saved" them. Gold medal game:

Lebron 14 points 6-9(2-3) 7 rebs 3 assists

Wade 27 points 9-12(4-7) 1 reb 2 assists

Kobe 20 points 7-14(3-8) 3 rebs 6 assists

Got more to do than stats. nikkas kill me just pulling up stats, Kobe made almost all the big plays down the stretch that game and definently had the biggest impact on the game.

You didn't see me say that it was all about the stats. I just used the stats to refute that "Kobe saved them" bullshyt. Saying that Kobe stepped up and made most of the plays down the stretch isn't te same as saying that he saved them. It was other cats that were out there having a good game that could've stepped up if Kobe didn't. You Kobe cocksuckers want to paint it like everybody on the team was struggling not being able to do shyt so Kobe had to put the cape on and save the day. Foh.

One thing about the word could've is you never know but what we do know is that Kobe saved them down the stretch. You couldn't have seen that game anybody who seen it know Kobe saved them.

So instead of going down right before, he might have gone down in the 1st or 2nd round. Kobe is a workout fiend in the offseason so I don't know how much playing in the Olympics truly hurt him if it did anything at all. He's still going to go hard in pickup games.

I think playing the Olympics opens you up for more chance of injury during that timespan, not later on in the year when the NBA season starts.

The term "saved" implies that you do know. You Kobe fanboys are basically saying that the team would've lost the game had Kobe not stepped up. That's what saved means. I'm saying that it wasn't like that because there were other guys on that team capable of stepping up had Kobe not done so. You trying to tell me that I didn't see the game because I'm not cosigning you all's dikriding opinion says it all. Using your dumbass logic, Wade actually saved the game because he did the most and if it wasn't for his amazing 1st half the game wouldn't have been close in the 4th qtr. What's the problem with just saying that Kobe stepped up in that 4th qtr and lead them to the win? Why must you put extras on the shyt. Rhetorical question, it's obvious why you do so.

The usual suspects I see. I've never seen dudes take what their eyes have seen and twist it into something completely different as much as I have on this site.
