I don't know what year this is but in 04/05 he got up to 230 but his frame/knees couldn't hold that.

Stein: Kobe ready to make Lakers his team

A lot has changed around the Lakers. A lot of it because of Kobe. Here's what he has to say about it.

Soon as Jalen green does this it’s over for the league

I remember this. Did help him be stronger throughout the season, but I think Kobe went too hard with the gym + basketball workouts, which is why his knees were mincemeat at age 29. After that and all the compensatory moves eventually the achillies went and that was a wrap.

Kobe with modern recovery methods + modern NBA rules + no rape charge = 16 time MVP, 16 rings.

Hopefully, Ja gets a clue. Steve-O ain't here no more to set those 'Brick wall' screens, and that 3-ball ain't falling. Hit the GYM

He started having knee problems iirc

Kobe with modern recovery methods

You say this like he played in the 60s

I never thought Kobe need to add that much weight. He had a solid frame and his maneuverability and body control were def strengths of his already on top of being decently strong.

I actually do think the medical field has advanced like crazy in the last 20 yrs. A majority of Kobe’s career, an ACL was like a 35 year old Achilles tear. You had ppl getting micro fracture thinking it would save careers

Bro said 16/16 tho

He lost the weight that next season

 

[UpAndComing]

Ray Allen on the Sonics, so this is pre-2007 when he went to the Celtics

So this has to be between 2004-2007

He started having knee problems iirc

he eventually figured out the key was getting lighter

but it was too late by then

Part of that was due to the case in Colorado. I don’t think he meant to drop so much
