That aint what the thread is about though breh.
Why does Kobe get to request, direct, and use a clause to block a trade while Dwight cant exercise his right to leave during free agency? Even Paul Pierce didnt do that...came close to it but didnt.
You're really going to compare Kobe's situation in 2007 to Dwight's?
Don't pretend like he left the Lakers due to lack of talent. He left the Lakers because his heart pumps diet crystal lite raspberry lemonade. You're being dumb if you try to compare Kobe and Dwight. Kobe doesn't come close to having the history of fukkery that Dwight does with respect to being a flip-floppy mental midget. Dwight's not ready to be a #1 player and it doesn't look like he'll ever be. Who turns down the Lakers for the Houston fukking Rockets?
?
Just for the record...I do not fukk with dwight AT ALL. I was actually uneasy about the prospect of Golden State trading Barnes or Klay for him :woah:.
But what is worse?
WHAT IS WORSE?
A player dissing a team that gave him three championships? A team that he derailed solely by pushing away Shaq? A team who he requested a trade to immediately after being drafted as a flippin 18 year old?
Or a player deciding to leave a squad that he already tried to win at, and another squad by exercising his right during free agency ?
What's worse breh
Kobe was havin knee problems(think he was on his 2nd or 3rd knee op) or something like that and dude was worried that his prime might be wasted carrying a bum team.
when you look back he was right. 3 years after Lakers traded for Pau, his knee gave up on him
If kobe had a legit 2nd option in those 3years(04-07), Lakers win at least 2 championships.
Everybody like to call Mitch Kupchak great GM and shyt but real lakers fans remember how he got raped in the Shaq deal(dumb ass nicca took back Brian Grant's contract which handcuffed Lakers) and how he traded Butler for Kwame fukking brown.
Who is he to talk?
nikkas act like Kobe is some diplomat who bleeds purple. NO. He is just like your average whiny ass player and he was literally one no-trade clause and Luol Deng away from being a Bull and fading into obscurity. Yet you nikkas defend him as if he is your father. He is no less a bytch than Dwight Howard and the fact he took to instagram and twitter to voice his displeasure proves this. Social Networking has exposed a lot of bytchassness; am I wrong?
Kobe objecting to Deng's inclusion in Bulls-Lakers trade - NBA - ESPN
Conversely...when Michael Jordan departed what did Scotti Pippen and the rest of the gang do? Take the Bulls to the eastern semi-final with 55 wins.
After the Admiral retired...didnt Duncan do the same thing... beast it without a complaint and eventually return the Spurs to prominence?
Lebron took a flabby David Wesley, Eric Snow and Larry Hughes to the finals and didnt leave until his contract was up. Remember that nikka Ira Newble?
etc etc.
Lakers after Shaq? Missed the playoffs..
Keep hailing this nikka. He has ya'll fooled.
..............
Especially after what just occurred less than 24 hrs ago
props thoughWhat does him retracting the request have to do with what the op is trying to say?
So if I slap you then say I didn't wanna slap you, does that mean I never slapped you
