shyt is hilarious. All the other players are having a normal discussion and Kobe is desperately trying to inject himself into the convo :dead:

Why would they even have him in this discussion panel? Lol awkward af


kobe knows he ain't on that nba mt rushmore....it eats at him that his body of work doesn't get him any comparisons to jordan, the way lebron's does

Ask Kobe why he didn't do a better job leading Smush.
This is what I’ve been wondering since I read this article this morning. He used to regularly throw teammates under the bus in public and would regularly tell Phil he needs to stop giving minutes to guys or pull them off the floor when they’d say or do something that shows him they ain’t shyt (Kwame brown telling kobe not to pass him the ball because he’ll get fouled and miss his free throws comes to mind). If anyone on that list should relate to playing with offensively inept teammates against a high powered offense in the playoffs, it should be Kobe. Both the cavaliers starting guards were miles worse these playoffs than smush was at any point, there was a forward on the bench who shot 28% from the field, and they even had a guard off the bench shoot 10% from the field in the finals. I don’t care who you are, you aren’t winning when your teammates play as bad as those guys did. I lost count of how many open shots they missed. I think LeBron created 45-50 shot attempts for them during the first two games of the series alone, and they made about 20-21 of them.

COMPARE THE DLEAGUE ROSTER OF 2006 TO LEBRON’S CURRENT CAST BRODIES

LEBRON’S CURRENT CAST = KOBE’S BACK TO BACK CAST

NOT THE CAST WHERE KWAME, SMUSH, AND LUKE WERE STARTERS

FOH
Outside of Kevin Love, this is a D-league roster. Jeff Green and JR would be in China if it wasn't for Lebron.

kobe needs to come down to earth.

dude was the worst leader ever.

even at the twilight of his career, his teammates clearly didnt like him. dude managed to make the entire team about himself, even when he wasn't good enough to be a starter. and he set the lakers franchise back an entire decade.

I am a Bron fan but there are no excuses. You have who you have. Those guys should take a lot of the heat though. Lebron did all he could do. It just isnt good enough against a great team like the Warriors. They wouldve been hard pressed to be HOU with CP3.

I cant knock Green. He played his ass off this year, but he isnt the Jeff Green from OKC. George Hill isnt even the same guy from Utah 2 years ago. Korver played his ass off...but he is 37. Nance played his ass off. A lot of those guys should be given credit. They played with heart but they arent good enough. I knock J.R. and TT because I believe those guys got lazy and took their skills for granted after the chip. No way they shouldve fell off like that unless they havent been living bball. Clarkson could never get his rhythm. I really thought he had some Lou Williams in him....speaking of which....the Cavs didnt pursue Lou?

Ty Lue has to take some blame for this. He screwed up that first game against the Warriors and the first game of a series is sooooo pivotal. Larry Drew did a good job when Lue was out.
