You just completely ignored his point about a major injury. Since when do we knock an athlete after a major injury.

If Kd struggles or under performs, guarantee you be the first screaming "give him half a season atleast"

All them years of lakers keeping Duncan from rings got u tight.

Because we both know without Kobe, duncan would have gone down best big ever. No question. Breh could of easily had 10 rings. So I get your anger

Kobe was an awful defender before he got injured, that is going to magically improve? Why is that just swept under the table when you and everyone else in this thread were clowning Wade for being on defense, someone that was injured the majority of the season.

I don't need Duncan to be the best player ever, or the best big man ever like yall need Kobe to be the best SG right now, or the GOAT. I'd only be angry if I had to watch Duncan finish out his career playing on lottery bound teams playing some of the worst individual defense in the league while I deliriously call him the best @ his position.

So I guess Jordan wasnt the best SG in the NBA when he was playing with the 1985-1987 Bulls

You mean the same Michael Jordan that won defensive player of the year in 87-88? We comparing that to Kobe, and you wonder why I think yall are out of touch with reality.

So the 1985-1987 Bulls were talented?

You said we can't call Kobe the best SG in the game and not say his team his talented....but Jordan was the best SG in the NBA on a bum squad from 85-87, so that theory doesn't add up

@Malta

Who are your five best shooting guards in order this season?

So you comparing a 32yr old wade with less mileage to a 19yr vet coming off back to back major-career threatening injuries??

You just loss your whole argument. And like I said any other player...you'd be saying give them atleast half a season. And for major injuries a whole season.

Those teams made the playoffs

This Laker team is going to be lucky to see 20 wins, and part of the reason is Kobe can't even keep up with his shadow at this point.

@Malta

Jimmy
Klay
Harden
Ellis
Derozan/Wade

Every single last one of these guys has been better on defense while providing similar offense, Kobe's defense has been bad for a minute now and this year it's been absolutely terrible, to the point he's trailing Boozer in defensive rating. He's making Harden (who has improved) look like Tony Allen right now, and Harden got clowned to the end of the earth and has been much much better this year on defense.

@ The qualifiers and excuses, what does that have to do with Kobe being terrible on defense? So, someone can dismiss Klay & Jimmy being better on defense than Wade right now, because Wade is old, with higher miles and is coming off injuries? Your qualifiers suck breh, you can't have it both ways. You can't say he's the best SG in the league, ignore defense and then just say "he's old" when defense is brought up, because you're already comparing him to those young guys by saying he's better than them. And I know why you ignore defense, it's cause he fukking sucks on that side of the floor.

I'm not here to win or lose arguments, there's no league standings, I'm here to simply annoy you with truth

Oh word? I was one of the people making fun of Wade for looking all season, the only people I really cut a lot of slack to are young players. I been shytting on LeBron's terrible defense all season too

@Malta

We can have a serious convo my brother, you don't have to troll with me because I will keep it real and objective

I don't believe that you honestly think Dallas or Toronto would get worse if you replace monta and derozan with kobe

Kobe is still finding his groove, he missed a ton of games. Harden Klay and butler have had better seasons so far but I think it's clear that kobe is more impactful than derozan and monta....especially if you actually put him on squads that have talent

 

[L&HH]

Uh oh Kobe just banged knees

You're the only one I'm giving non- answers, we go way back

Kobe is part of the problem for the Lakers on defense, he gambles for steals, constantly gets beat off the dribble and dudes just go right by him on closeouts. He's not going to find his groove there because he was already becoming bad at those things before he got hurt


Ellis, Wade and DeRozan have been better on defense than him, also if you put him on those teams the numbers everyone is posting about would drop considerably, Wade takes 15 shots a game, Ellis takes 17 and DeRozan takes 16...meanwhile Kobe is putting it up 22 a night. So, they'd be taking on a worse individual defender that is no more efficient than the guy(s) they'd be losing.

kobe the problem


are u watching this bum ass game? lin and boozer should not be in the NBA

You're looking at numbers and ignoring circumstances.Kobe Bryant is not gonna take as many shots if he's on the mavs, raptors, Warriors, Bulls, etc. He's not gonna force as many dumb low percentage shot attempts

There's NOBODY in the league that would shoot a good percentage taking the dumb shots that kobe is taking.

If you look at what kobe can do

Create his own shot off the dribble
Draw double teams off the dribble
Draw double teams from the low post
Draw double teams from the high post

Which other guards have this skillset?
