Lol, view it how you’d like but you’ve been made it clear since

that you can never be unbiased on the subject of Kobe. I might could skim the shyt you wrote but why waste my energy actually reading it. Whatever tho, that’s not the point of the argument here.
'm not biased when it comes to anybody. I'm a basketball fan and my loyalty is only to the truth has I seen it. My comments are all based in logic. Again, you're deflecting on some ad hominem shyt. It's you who has the bias.
You and I just see how that Game 7 went differently. I don’t think he quit, at most he was probably frustrated that Phil wanted to stick to the plan and it wasn’t working. My question isn’t a deflection at all. Y’all always bring this game up as if y’all got the answers on what to do so enlighten us.
How do you explain his lack of effort then? You keep trying to make this about the game plan when it's not about that. It's about kobe's palpable lack of effort in that second half. He wasn't following any game plan, he was just out there coasting. He wasn't getting playing hard on defense, he wasn't out there hustling for loose balls, and he damn sure wasn't out there trying to get his teammates going. He wasn't just out there pouting, going through the motions.
Your question is irrelevant. It doesn't matter what the strategy was because the issue is the lack of effort. He wasn't out there trying his hardest to do anything, shoot or set teammates up and get the money going. Dude had 1 assist, 4 rebs and 3 turnovers for the entire game. You can't even be honest with yourself.
But here’s the part that I’m not getting. If you actually read Kobe’s comments, just as
@SunZoo said, Kobe wasn’t making himself out to be someone that knew it all or had all the answers.
He admitted that he found himself in a similar situation and the people he looked up to (Jordan/Phil) told him to figure it out. He ended up figuring it out. Why is it wrong for LeBron to get that same critique? LeBron top 5 OAT but he couldn’t squeeze out one win when those games were close?
Kobe was never perfect, let’s stop protecting LeBron like he is.
The bold is lies. The only time that Kobe has been in a similar position to Lebron was this past season is when he wasn't making the playoffs or was being sent home after the first round. The only thing that he figured out is that he needed more talent around him.
Y'all are just full of shyt for no reason. We all know the truth. We know thy Kobe threw temper tantrums and demanded a trade when he was in a similar position as Lebron was this past season. His
"Lebron has no excuse, he supposed to figure it out" comments are just passive aggressive hate.
Nobody is saying Lebron I perfect. People are just acknowledging that the cavs didn't have the help around him to compete with the warriors.
Kobestans ALWAYS gotta pull dumb shyt like this, totally skipping over Lamar Odom, the #2 on the Lakers, but naming guys who were getting 10 minutes/game.
Lamar was a beast that series, averaging 19-11-5 on 50% shooting while playing great defense. But yo ass gonna pretend he doesn't exist.
Who were the Suns past Steve Nash?
Diaw
Marion
James Jones
Raja Bell
Tim Thomas
That ain't no all-world lineup, they're just a solid group of role players. Kobe could have won that series if he had taken the teamwork energy he brought in the first four games and extended it all series.
How much more different would this cavs team had been if they had that version of Odom in place of love? I say that Odom'a versatility and playmaking would've made this cavs team a notch better and a better matchup for the warriors.
