[Rocket Scientist]

One of the best passes he ever made

Riiiiiiight....


Kobe is undefeated in international play and single handedly won gold for them in 2008 against Spain but he's a negative.


Like the US wasn't a laughing stock before Kobe decided to

Neg rep

Larry Brown deserves most of the blame for the '04 Olympics

That's stupid because he was 28 back then so you bringing up him winning then has shyt to do with 2016

 

[Ironman]

Sucks to see Bean go man but one hell of a career for him.
The U.S. still has more than enough talent to get gold though I still have faith in the home team

GawdBe with the humility

How old was he in 2012?

This was/is the right thing to do for Kobe and I'm glad he made the decision now instead of the fans and media speculating over it until the Summertime.

He was in that Olympics too.

Y'all know Vanessa wasn't letting him go to Brasil

I believe Kevin Durant, Melo, & Bron won that gold medal...Durant had 30 in the championship. Good try tho

Kobe averaged 12 pts & 17 mins a game

lost some food on this one

His leadership won them the gold, just like it did in 2008.

Coach K said that Kobe was the driving force of team USA so unless you think you're a better coach than him, you can shut it.

Melo and Bron played in the 2004 olympics as well. Why didn't they win that gold medal?



Kobe brought intangibles and sacrificed his personal game to win gold. True basketball heads know that.
