I think, after last night especially, BB should rename the "Patient" offense the "Kobe" offense.

Robleza giving a pretty good tribute of his own to Kobe.

As a Suns fan I have many memories of Kobe, especially in the playoffs, all of which are just him tearing it up and beating us.

Disappear, you unrepentant rapist.



You mean that girl who banged ANOTHER guy later on the very same day the attack supposedly occurred? Not the type of behavior you generally see a woman exhibit after a VIOLENT crime of that nature. White middle class conservatives like yourself were waiting in the wings to chop him down, just another punk ass minority eh buddy???

Of course Kobe's big flaw in the grand scheme of things was that as great as his game was he had no where near the charisma MJ had, or for that matter Lebron, Curry and other cats like Durant have.

Kobe Bryant is likely to be more remembered than Curry or Durant. Curry led his team to a record 73-9 season and has the 3pts record (likely to be beaten by him next season or someone else in the future), but Bryant has 20 seasons and 5 rings to his name. Durant, as good as he is, doesn't have much to show for future generations.



Curry is still a work in progress, we don't know just yet where history will have him. Durant was just an example of a charismatic player, but dude has not really even sniffed anything of significance yet so I concur there.

It will not surprise too many people though if the Spurs this year knock off the Warriors, there is not a lot of difference there. But Golden State seems to be on a mission this year, and at this point they better cash it in or history will remember them as the greatest choke job in the history of the game even if the Spurs simply turn out to be better over the course of a series.

But I digress.

Another big difference between Kobe and MJ is that Kobe was always seen as a prodigy, straight from high school to the NBA. MJ was pretty lightly recruited, his old college roommate Buzz Peterson actually came to Carolina with a higher pedigree, But I can still remember my oldest brother who was in law school at Carolina back then telling me that there is this kid coming in from Wilmington, best vertical leap since David Thompson (a guy who was a phenom in and of himself)

White middle class conservatives like yourself ....

ROFLMAO. That has to be one of the funniest things I have ever read in these threads. You have a wonderful imagination. You could write more chapters to Alice in Wonderland.

Pretty sure that was the Spurs, Robert Horry if I remember rightly? Dirty, dirty player. The Spurs have also been a massive thorn in our side (when we were good anyway)

In the ten seasons from 1999-2000 to 2009-2010, the Suns made the playoffs 8 times and got knocked out twice by the Lakers, four times by the Spurs. Nightmare.
