Ever since Caruso an actual recipient of the bubble ring discredited one of Bron's cheap onion rings Klutch has been working overtime lmfaoooo :laff:

This is honestly so pathetic :dead:

You know whats unearned and cheap? Running to a team one year after D Wade was the scoring champ :laff:

Chris Bosh is still the alltime Toronto Raptors leader in total rebounds and blocks and its 2025 :laff:

Running to a team with all that talent , manufacturing cheap rings should be discredited. Nobody denies that kobe was a great defender . But plenty of people deny LeBron's cheap ass rings including Barkley who stated that Lebron was disqualified from the GOAT conversation after his move to Miami. What's a Jeff Teague to a Barkley :umad:


We arent even talking about Kyrie and Kevin Love. Or Anthony Davis . Or Luka now :laff:



Stay mad :umad:

THIS NEW TREND OF PODCASTERS TALKING DOWN ON KOBE FOR CLICKS WHEN HE AINT HERE TO DEFEND HIMSELF ALL BECAUSE HE DIDNT SHAKE THEIR HANDS PRE-GAME IS INSUFFERABLE


THE COACHES WHO GAME PLANNED AROUND KOBES DEFENSE WERE THE ONES VOTING HIM IN

UNLIKE THE MVP, WHICH IS A GLORIFIED POPULARITY CONTEST

anytime a former player says anything that's not glazing Kobe, the Mambatards accuse them of being with Klutch:russ::laff:

a few years from now they'll be saying Katelyn Faber was paid by Klutch:picard:

On KRS One's nose, eating sunflower seeds.
Doesn’t matter, Kobe has the selections. Too bad.

There’s other players these dudes could choose for their narratives but mentioning “Kobe” gets them clicks. And if yall who defend these people can’t see it, then you’re just as daft or dense as them.

For those who say that Kobe isn’t here to defend himself, you’re right. And he shouldn’t have to. People these days don’t know how to properly honor the dead. Mentioning him is cool, but going in about a NEGATIVE subject/opinion that could TARNISH his legacy is crass and lacks decorum. He still has his family listening. Again, what’s the point of mentioning Kobe in a negative light…AGAIN? It’s the same as the racist/kewns or feminist who bring up the past of freshly drafted players (on site) and it makes us outraged. But somehow we pardon this? Selective outrage. “B..bu..but it’s sports related”, doesn’t matter, it’s legacy tarnishing and demeaning.

De mortuis nil nisibonum dicendum est, "Of the dead nothing but good is to be said."

I’m quite sure most of yall couldn’t phantom ANYONE speaking negatively about your moms, pops or spouse without you wilding out or checking them. Regardless of its truth or opinion.
Speak well of the dead or not at all.

Kobe was good/but overrated defensively imo all of the top sg's in his era cooked him on a nice clip. Plus he always had bigs in the paint to cover a lot.
No, they didn’t because he wasn’t consistently guarding them after like 01. He would lock up for stretches but otherwise, he was scoring 30 a night. He was given those awards for being a good to great defender given his workload. But the award wasn’t given to straight specialists back then - it was disproportionately given to star players.

Not really a hot take. Kobe was a great defender and could turn it on at any moment, but obviously he got those late ones off respect. Bron and jordan got those too.
