If you want to win YES. It's your legacy on the line at the end of the day, and people are gonna define that legacy in this case by WINNING.

Bron took a slight pay cut in Miami and has been the foundation for the best team in the NBA for the last 3 seasons.

You have to give up something to get something.

but Kobe only thinks of himself which is why Dwight bounced :heh:

Kobe's legacy is pretty much well established at this point...he could've woke up this morning and announced his retirement and go down as a top tier top 5ish to have every played the game of all time great....the muh'fukka got 5 chips already :pachaha: ...ain't like this is Melo, Dwight, or even Bron before signing with MIA taking a paycut to form a superteam to win chips and validate a "legacy"...he's already a made man...if the doesn't win anymore, the sky ain't exactly about to fall

I think you're projecting breh.
I wanted the ravens to beat the niners less year cuz I love rd reed but I'm not actually rooting for him regardless of team
:pachaha:



I think you're projecting breh.
I rooted for Shaq to win in those series cuz I had no team to root for I didn't actually root for the lakers cuz of a player

I rooted for the ravens to win the sb cuz of Ed reed but I'm not actually rooting for the ravens

There is a huge difference between picking a team in the championship when your team isn't in than just rooting for a man regardless of team

I'm sure you rooted for the spurs cuz you hate the heat are you a spurs fan?


I'm not a faq I don't just pick a man to follow I root for one team my whole life and I always will when Kobe retires there just gonna stop watching basketball that's just insanely gay to me

That makes no sense if he was only thinking about himself he wouldn't have went to Miami in the first place . He knows be has to share glory with Wade and Bosh. Stop acting like those two situations are comparable cause they're not. And we all know Bron would be ringless if he were still in Cleveland and would be getting the same disrespect from 2009-2011 .. FOH with that "he would get the respect he deserves..."

are you fukking illiterate? how do you quote me and still get it wrong?

i said "he wouldn't have gotten the respect he deserves". the "'nt" is another way of saying not

please review the english textbook you had back in 3rd grade so we can have a fluid conversation.

yes lebron was thinking about himself and what his legacy would look like if he didn't win a ring. that's why he took a paycut so miami could add as much talent as possible. you a fool if you cant see that :snoop:

What super team? And so by your logic Bron Melo and Dwight taking pay cuts aren't a big deal. And I'll take someone taking less money for better teammates than more money to feed an ego any day.

given the nba salary cap is 58.5 million and luxury tax is 71 million.. meaning the lakers will have 35 million dollars to get 2 good players to play wit kobe and a bunch of bodies which the team have now to go along with him. luxury tax isn't a problem. lakers is a team that wants to win in the next 2 years for kobe and who ever else join him and then after that start rebuilding with probably melo or who ever else young great player..

it's the lakers not a flash in a pan franchise like the miami marlins or miami heat...

So if my "maximum fukkery" math is correct, its pretty much a lock that Kobe comes back averaging 13 points on 39% shooting...
