He should have been in L.A. is Charlotte making the playoffs? ALL the greats should have been there to see this guy off. Bird, Zeke, Miller, Bernard King, Hakeem, Jabbar, Russell, Pippen, Malone, Stockton etc. Pay homage. He, Duncan and Garnett are the last from that era I'm believe. All praises due
u forgot Dirk

He only 37....:why:

yeah but might be too late for us.
say he has a son at 40
Kobe Jr makes it to the league at 20
What the hell just happened? I went to sleep at halftime and was like "ok it looks like he might drop 35-40, good for Kobe".

Then I did a quick check on the internet to make sure the Warriors got that dub, and was dumbfounded.

Definitely, need to see the replay. That sh*t is absurd. 60 and the win??? Wow.

Miss an all time sports moment brehs

Laker fans, how y'all feeling about your rebuilding (depleted) team that's (at this point) starless, esp with the clips sitting across the hall star studded? Y'all in for a long turnaround :whew:


Most of us should know that it will take a 2-4 years before we'll have a chance to get even close to the playoffs. Obviously depending on who we'll sign this summer & what happens with our draft pick. I'm prepared to wait :manny: hopefully the young players (D'Russ, Randle, Nance & Clarkson if he comes back) improve next year as much as possible. Outside of them, one of the few guys I'd bring back is Huertas because of his basketball IQ/passing and ability to run an offense, hopefully he can help our young guards with that too. Outside of that, I'm don't really care who stays/doesn't :yeshrug: there's some guys I'd have no problem with bringing back but Lou Williams, Nick Young & Ryan Kelly can all :camby: too bad Lou & Nick have 1-2 years left. Bass also has a player option...

:patrice:

not gonna be easy. hopefully next summer is better than the last one. I'm interested to see which of our young players will start scoring more now that Kobe is gone.


I know I'm gonna fukking hate the next season if Lou Williams is gonna be our leading scorer/#1 option :snoop:

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
For those of you that were just Kobe fans, there's no one like him, but there is one that plays with almost as much fire as him:










Russ is the obvious one people point to, but it's the Greek......

"I said listen man, it's just a choice you're going to have to make. If you want to be that great player, then you're going to have to make certain sacrifices and go after it." Bryant said. "He has the potential to do it. He has the physical tools, the intelligence. Now it's just a matter of believing in himself and going after it. He has the talent to be a great player.
Click to expand...



Kobe told him to take 1,000 shots a day in the summer, Giannis said he'll take 1,500.

Ya his progression has been amazing and he does have a desire to get better at seemingly everything, but Westbrook is still Young Sabo.


Young Sabo is :youngsabo: but there are similarities between Giannis and Kobe that transcend just the will to win, both raised in Europe, played soccer, skinny as shyt when they came into the league, both skilled beyond their years. Also, the work ethic Giannis has is starting to pickup stories, dude is the only Bucks starter that shows up for night practices regularly, apparently he's becoming obsessed with being the best.

It's Towns and the Greek as far as building around for the next generation, they are a clear cut above everyone else in their age range.


@LurkMoar i will never forgive donnie nelson. :snoop:
