Kobe is above that.
I was also like

"Kobe is NBA ROYALTY. Imagine him having to play Nate Robinson."
:gucci:

But hey. I'm still salty about Kobe's achilles injury - the Lakers were on a seriously improbably run to get that last playoff seed... It's of course unlikely but damn if Bean would play even 1 friendly match again it would be the shyt.

At this point: should we not just universally agree that RACIST WHITE MEN equals MOST DARK SKINNED BLACK WOMEN?

Hey, it hurts me to write it. But let's look at the facts:

Racist white men hate us.
Racist white men hate any success we have.
Racist white men will do anything to ensure we do not succeed in life.

Most dark skinned women hate us.
Most dark skinned women hate any success we have.
Most dark skinned women will do anything to ensure we do not succeed in life.

The only difference:
The racist white man's reason is a sense of superiority
The dark skinned woman's reason is a sense of inferiority triggered by white media (white media says white/light skinned is a beauty ideal)

That's a good enough reason to project your internalized anger on a black man for choosing a white woman, just because him doing that to you confirms that the world thinks white and light skinned women are more beautiful.. the white media world may be selling this, but that's opinion - many disagree..

I am at this point tired of fighting for and defending black MEN who do ridiculous shyt like indiscriminately kill their own kind (other black men) over bullshyt like jealousy (which is just internalized racism). But I'm also tired of seeing good black men being dragged by SPECIFICALLY dark skinned black women for their preferences and choices.

Every time you are angry again (again, yes you are angry all the time) you increase the likelihood that a black man thinks 'I don't want that'.

White women have it easier.
Light skinned women have it easier.
Tall, white men have it easier.
Great looking white men have it easier.

These are facts. But nobody said this -letting go of what has been built through 100s of years of racism- would be easy.

Still: you're a shame to our entire race as a black woman every single time you hate a black man and when we black men BLINDLY for no reason hate a black woman, we hate our own kind, our own sister. I do have to say it's not that black and white, since there are WAAAAY more black women hating black men than there are black men who make it their business to hate black women.

I fukk who I want. Michael B. Jordan too. Any black man does what he wants. THAT was the whole POINT of the anti-slavery freedom movement... freedom. Not LIMITED freedom. Wake the fukk up..

Kobe Bryant is done playing basketball on a national stage. That dude gave this sport his all and is content on how and where he left league. Perfect example of a person who really put it all out there and is content with how things ended
Maybe he is, maybe he isn’t (on the human side I would hope he is) but there’s no way for any of us to know, and it’s not as though he is that far removed from playing. That’s one of those itches that may never go away.

There is a difference between wanting to play and not physically being able to play at a level you like to play.
It was clear he was a near the end when he did that impromptu appearance at Lakers practice and Nick Young and other players said they wished he did that more. Kobe outright said “I physically can’t anymore”
There is a level of honor to someone with that much dedication to their craft. If he ain’t capable of giving it his all and doing a great job at it, Kobe won’t do it
