Did Kobe ever have a 50 point half? I honestly don't know the answer to this question and I'm sure you would love to research this.You should do that breh.
It's about time we acknowledged Kobe's growing family + Power Rankings
- Thread starter 2Quik4UHoes
- Start date
this 70 points by Booker got Kobe fans in their feelings, a Kobe fake kids thread?
Why would any fan of Kobe's be in their feelings? Devin Booker said himself that he wants to follow in Kobe's footsteps. He was a stan his damn self. I know yall hate the nikka but yall can't be this dense. It's players in today's like that were coming up looking up to Kobe and some have gone so far as to imitate aspects of his game. Yall stupid as shyt for making me even have to explain the shyt.....
Yeah, 55 in the second half to score 81. I guess it was a lot of nikkaz living under rocks out here.

Initially thought 81 was pretty evenly split between the two halves (he had 55 in the 2nd half), but good for him to be able to will his team past the 27 win Raptors

Kobe did that to win, he wasn't padding stats. But it takes a special mentality to heist like that so I'm not trying to totally discredit Booker.....

booker wasnt trying to win? he had a 21 point game down to a 10 point deficit late in the 4th. The Celtics are unfortunately that much better than the Suns as far as teams go so it was too little too late.Kobe did that to win, he wasn't padding stats. But it takes a special mentality to heist like that so I'm not trying to totally discredit Booker.....
Booker jacking while down big and the C's not even playing their starters is a little different from Kobe actually needing those points in order to beat the bum ass Raptors which tells you how terrible his squad was. It was still a very impressive scoring display, but it's a difference. Kobe's 62 is better than this shyt too, easily. Can't wait to see what else Booker has in store, his future is very bright.

Yup, in style and maybe career arc too he's like Ginobili but I was talking about based on guys who look up to Kobe. Dude is one of the main guys, and the two guy that Kobe shows love to everytime is him and Westbrook.

I think Kyie Bryant, Kawhi, and Giannis got next but Booker seems like he's adopted his NBA fathers mentality.
PG time seems to be passing slowly (injury fukked that up), Russ got the mentality but not the skill imo, Wggins got the tools and the fro but i dont know.. Not the mentality and same for Derozan
Plus Booker only 20

True.
Andrew Wiggins has a Michael Jordan skillset to go with a Scottie Pippen mindset.
Its embarrassing that he's perfectly fine being a sidekick to an inferior talent like Towns. Dude is beta as fukk.
Totally lacks the Mamba mindset.
Harden is a tricky situation. The issue is you gotta have some sort of trait from Kobe in order to claim kinship. I guess his crafty way of drawing fouls is enough to give him Family Friend status. It's worth a debate at the very least, I couldn't give him nephew status he don't got the vast array of moves down or the psychotic mentality of the one shooting gawd. I need a senior stan from Texas like @houston911 to chime in on this.

That's the thing, at only 20 Booker just showed himself to be a potential son. Giannis is young like Booker so he's got a lot further to go, Kyrie F. is an established son of Kobe and Kawhi is on the verge of ascending as well. Honestly out of all the kids Kawhi has the most potential to be the best player in the league right now.
Don't sleep on DeRozen breh, he's been studying intensely and it's clear him and his dad have had some bonding time. Some of the moves I saw him hit the other night were moves I ain't seen since Kobe was in the league. If you get a chance you really should watch him play. He hits a lot of the moves, he comes into the 4th with 6-7 minutes left and proceeds to jack shots non-stop. He's one of the more intriguing talents in that he REALLY does want to be like Kobe. If Toronto were to upset the Cavs thanks to DeRozen's improved play he might get upgraded to second son. @Broke Wave or @CantStop can vouch for this one being in Toronto and all.
Russ just has mamba blood so he's related, he carries that same irrational belief that he's better than everyone that ever played. His shot selection, his fukk you mentality, his intensity, those things make him a permanent nephew but he'll never elevate to son because he's more interested in being Russell Westbrook which is cool. He'll just never have the skills or be a winner like his uncle Kobe.
As for George, he's is a lower tier friend of the family, at best, because he's always been a pretender out here. Same with Wiggins.
Wiggins isn't ready for nephew status, he might never get to that level honestly. Needs to spend more family time with dad in the offseason. I just don't think he built for this shyt personally. He'll prolly end up in that Paul George bracket of low-tier friend of the family.

Then why create a "Kobe's kids" thread after his game, why not a week ago, a month ago? Would Booker have even been on the list? No one is hating Kobe, he's a top 15 player ever, no hateWhy would any fan of Kobe's be in their feelings? Devin Booker said himself that he wants to follow in Kobe's footsteps. He was a stan his damn self. I know yall hate the nikka but yall can't be this dense.
