Kobe cared about winning more than his FG%. The shot could go in which improves your chances of winning. Holding on to the ball just protects your FG%. Kobe's actions on the court spoke louder than some quote. If he had the ball with the play clock expiring and the only two options were shooting or not...he would shoot way more times than not....anywhere on the court. I saw with my own eyes, so no agenda fukkery here.
If it was going to be a full court heave, he would either shoot after the buzzer or make sure he wasn't in a position to get the ball. I know the media fed narratives say otherwise but the facts are what they are. You can check shot charts and all that if you don't believe me.

The only time I saw Kobe taking heaves was during hack a Dwight when he had an agreement with the officiating crew that shots taken after the whistle would count as "simultaneous with the whistle" if they went in. So he had nothing to lose on those ones.

And a lightweight stan of a player compared to Nick Wright, Cowherd and Sharpe. :francis:

Stephen A is a lot more of a Stan than them, especially when you contrast it with how unforgiving he is of other players but he would juelz like a motherfukker anytime Kobe earned criticism.

They have been speaking on Bron EVERYDAY for years. Skip Bayless is a Bron Stan of the Hater variety.

Yeah Nick Wright and Cowherd are so forgiving to Wall, Westbrook, KD, Kobe just to name a few. Smith has become a Kobe Stan the last few years, which is rare in the mainstream Sports Media. But he has a long ways to go to catch up to the dikkriding Nick, Coward, Sharpe and Skip have unabashedly displayed for Bron over the years.

How would you know? You were too busy watching the Kings not win a championship.:mjlit:

Adding Skip in to the stan section is proof of how wrong you are. shytting on LeBron is great for ratings and the Bron haters have been :eat:off Skip for years. The Kobestans were crying about unknowns like Hollinger and Abbott for years but according to your definition, they were Kobestans themselves :what:


I've said it so many times on here. Putting Kobe's biggest fan next to LeBrons biggest detractor was ratings gold for ESPN. They know their audience. A show that featured the opposite never would have worked.

Maybe you should listen to the song 'Stan' again. Perfect example of a thin line between love and hate. Stans are obsessed lovers or haters.

What show are you talking about on ESPN? It wasn't First Take with Stephen A and Skip. If both were hating on Lebron then they wouldn't have had so many heated debates about Lebron.

Stephen A has become more critical of Bron because Max has become a bigger advocate of Bron unlike on LA Radio when he had to offset Marcellus stannery and to to create radio debate for ratings. Same with First Take but TV..

Stephen A is a new booty:dame:, a pup to this stannery business. Hopefully he holds on to his self respect unlike Nick Wright.

I shyt on you weirdos who think that youre smarter than the guys actually playing the game because you have advanced stats. Y'all have no idea how stupid you sound being dismissive of the people actually playing against these guys. As I've stated over and over again, you don't have to agree with something because an NBA player said, but to act like these people are ignorant to the game and their opinions hold no value is some clown shyt.
I played the game and I HATED playing with nikkas that missed more shots than everyone in the gym.

I thought that was universal.

Dudes that stayed making you have to sprint back on transition defense, because they are constantly bricking long range shots and giving the other team fast break opportunities.

The Truth
Was Kobe more valuable than Shaq when he averaged 16 ppg in the 2000 finals or more valuable in 2001 when Iverson was cooking him so bad they had to switch Tyron Lue on him or was in 2005 when he shot 35% from the floor while Shaq was shooting 60%?
Iverson was cooking Ty Lue and Derek Fisher you fukking idiot... they switched Kobe on him and it was wraps:russ:


You can't even get that shyt right, so I know everything else you're saying now is fukking garbage. Kobe was just breaking out as a player and also took 70 less shots than Shaq. Shaq was dominating at that time but Kobe was still a fukking leader on the team being the youngest player and the 2nd leading scorer....


And this clown decided to pick ONE finals series like it still means Kobe wasn't a leader on the team or the 2nd leading scorer:mjlol:

Like Kobe didn't dominate the WCF game 7 that even got them there... Like Kobe wasn't the youngest player to get the All-Defensive team that year and spent most of the time Chasing Reggie Millers ass around shutting him down:mjlol:

Like Kobe didn't get injured during that series... Like Kobe didn't carry them in OT with a bad ankle when Shaq fouled out that game... sit tf down clown:mjlol:

Stanning and obsession aren't mutually inclusive. The anti LeBron shyt was clearly an act by Skip but its what the audience wanted so he played the part.

As for your claims that Stephen A being new at this and only stanning Kobe for the last couple years, what in the fukk? At what point of Stephen A's bullshyt career did he have room to insert Kobes dikk any deeper down his throat?

Did the stanning start when he was despondent on first take and was excusing an aging Kobe's sky high usage rate by saying his body simply isn't doing what he is asking it to and that he needs to retire?

Or was it a few years earlier when he insisted on a max contract for veteran minimum performance and Stephen A was creating a distraction by saying Jim Buss should be criminally prosecuted for not getting Kobe more help?

Or was it a few years before that when Kobe bashed the Travon supporters and Stephen A :cape: for him and agreed that black people were a bunch of sheep?

Or was it like 10 years ago when one of his many lust filled exaltations of Kobe was used as the intro to Lil Waynes kobe inspired version of Stan?

Or anytime before and after any of the events above when he would tangent off to talking about Kobe's competitive fire or being the best in the league or his five championships even when discussing completely unrelated sports or topics?

:what: Dude has been deep on his dikk forever and always excessively praised him, not only out of love but so he could get exclusive interviews and so these two thugs from the streets of Philly could bond out in LA. And so we could see that Stephen A is tight with NBA players and is a star in his own right.

Its sickening and I don't know how you can't see it.

Kobe didn't play for respect from box score whores, stat nerds, clumsy geeks, or 30 year old dudes who gotta wait for they mama to fall asleep so they could sneak in their girlfriend. Kobe played for respect from his peers

That's why so many of the all time greats rank Kobe as a top 2-5 player of all time and the best of his generation while you nerds on the coli say he's somewhere between 20-25.
Shyt was comical

I’ve seen him look off wide open teammates just to pump fake 8 times and shoot over 3 guys lmao
There is some truth to this, but at the end of the day kobe just took a lot of stupid ass shots where he should have passed or made a better play
You're all over the place dude. It's like you're having some internal conflict. In the first post you're spinning the selfish gunning that has led to Kobe being the all time leader in shots missed as being one of the reasons that he's great and gets so much respect from his peers, but in the last two posts you keep it a little more honest.

It's interesting how you lash out at non kobe fanboys who who point out the fact that kobe was a selfish gunner who forced a lot of bad shots, yet here you are admitting it. Whenever you see a non kobe fanboy use Kobe's selfish (relatively)inefficient gunning as part of the justification for why he's not in the elite goat conversations, you start trolling with your "you stat boys think you're superior to the players" bullshyt.

You need to check yourself dude. The same way you that you can disagree with Kobe's shot selection and call him out for taking "stupid ass shots" as a non pro playing internet message board poster, other posters can disagree with a player's "stupid ass" opinions. Being NBA players doesn't exclude these guys from potentially having nonsensical "dumb" opinions. You're only fighting that battle in this particular context as a kobe cocksucker.
