Where is the hypocrisy in his statements?

I'm speaking mostly from last season, but Swaggy P was chucking some horrible shots last season. Terrible shot selection. At least Kobe has earned the right since that's how he won 5 rings.

That isn't true lol, can we stop rewriting history when it comes to Kobe pls.

Not buying it mate.

Of course he can. Everybody forgots what a role in a team is. Kobe even played PG the year with Dwight Howard basically, dragged his sorry injured ass into the playoffs, after Nash died. Kobe was told to be a scorer, he scored while also playmaking from a post position.

Who are you to argue with people who form their arguments without watching games and instead concludes something from an internet meme

@ McAgger Still, where is the hypocrisy is his statement? He's a 3pt shooter. Would you say the same about Kyle Korver or Morrow?

Kobe hasn't earned the right to chuck it, when he's shit. He's earned the right to get the ball and shoot, if he makes them at a reasonable clip. Which he had every single time until his achilles injury.

The hypocrisy is that he was a chucker and now he's telling another chucker not to chuck. Is that clear for you?

A chucker doesn't win 5 championships a chucker doesn't rank all time 9th in playoffs assists and 4th in non PGs.

It's just absolute revisionist bullshit, People like Jamal Crawford are chuckers not *bleep* Kobe.

Nick Young “We can’t let one guy determine everything. We have to play as a team"

"It can’t be like a video game & you’re playing w/ your favorite player, you know? We’ve all got to share the ball.”

Where does he say any of that? Every play goes through Kobe without focusing on the best play for the team, which is what he's saying. Nowhere is he saying anything hypocritical, because he's not proclaiming himself to be holier than thou.

JESUS Moal, read what I'm writing.

I called Kobe a ballhogger throughout his career, which he totally was.

I'm only calling current post-Achielles injury Kobe a chucker.

Ballhogger and chucker are a big *bleep* difference here.

My bad

It's just funny to me that it's coming from Nick Young, is all.

Rondo's starting look more like old Rondo. 20 assists last game, 7 in the first quarter tonight.


meanwhile we're losing to the 76ers at home. Might be worth it to help the Nets pick out though

He's played well most of the season tbh, just hasn't translated to actual wins.

I know they are up atm but I really can't see Philly winning

Yeah but Cousins has been out how many games, and out again tonight.

Drummond outplaying Whiteside and the Pistons are working the Heat.

Celtics closed the gap but still down..


and 6ers gon' 6er. We had no business winning that game. Avery Bradley was terrible, Crowder awful until the big three, Turner 6-18, Sullinger 4-12, Olynyk 0-5. Pretty much everyone except IT.

Saw ESPN air a stat:
w/o Smart 19-32 after tonight
w/ Smart 30-16

If anyone other than Westbrook had his stats, wouldn't they be going crazy? 32+ PER

28/10/7.5 and 2.5 steals on 47%

Ridiculous. Second best guard in the league, no doubt.

Still not regretting Russell.

' We're told the altercation began because one of the men in the other group yelled at Jahlil, "The 76ers suck." '

When losing too much gets to you

I think he's going to be the best number 1 pick since LeBron.

Michael Beasley looked like a future hall of famer in College
Andrew Wiggins was supposed to be a GOAT and he's not even the best player on his team anymore really..I wouldn't judge him until he gets in to the league.. He's has special court vision for his size though like LeBron so that should set him apart

Wiggins is a weird example. He is better in the NBA than he was in college. Those weird inconsistent games are almost totally gone and he is an even better defender and better shooter than people imagined.

"Your" Cavs would have been better off keeping him instead of trading for Love tbh

That isn't the reason.... it's because one the hecklers attacked one of his team mates and he was defending him.

See this is why i don't jump to the conclusions and think like i know everything before everything has been reported on lol, there's usually always a reason why these things happens.

BTW I agree with James. I know you like him Freeza, but I cant agree with you.

Nick Young cant speak at all. He does what he is "supposed" to do, only because thats the one thing he can/does do. He could have a different role if he played more unselfish, because he has the talent to do it, but he has his current role because every time he touches the ball, it goes up.

And calling out Kobe is so pointless.

The issue isnt what Kobe is doing, the issue is he is missing. If he made these same shots, nobody would talk all this play as a team bla bla.

The Laker offence isnt even 50% of the problem anyway. The defence is by a mile the biggest problem.

Besides the obvious, the problem imo, is Kobe is not adjusting. He's taking the same shots he's always taken, which are low percentage shots. He doesn't have the lift to make them anymore. Byron Scott should know that too, and try to get the ball to Kobe in better spots, like on the block where he still has a strength advantage over a lot of SGs.

Serena Winters @SerenaWinters
Byron says chemistry isn't an issue w/ this team. The issue is they don't trust each other on the court yet.

Kobe is my favourite player, and I stated in the start it was fun coming from Nick Young. But it's in no way hypocrisy, since he was talking of the team in general needed to do better. How can he not say that?

Still, the one thing he can do, is more than Kobe can atm. Kobe is completely done and takes that frustration out on the entire team. He stated nowhere than we wasn't a part of the problem. Basically what he said was that the ENTIRE team doesn't play together at all. I don't understand how you can't state a problem, even if you're a part of it. If that's the case, it will never get fixed, since all our players are chuckers, except Russell who gets pulled constantly and played off ball for iso players.

And calling out Kobe is so pointless.

How come? He knows himself he can't do stuff like he used to anymore, and has to adjust. In 2012 he adjusted his game somewhat and started being a playmaker of sorts. That has completely gone away from his game.

The issue isnt what Kobe is doing, the issue is he is missing. If he made these same shots, nobody would talk all this play as a team bla bla.

Can't all Kobe out, yet you state defense is a big problem. Guess who's the main contributor to that aside from Byron Scott and him playing Bass as a C?

also this defensive play from Kobe is how he is every time

I love everything he's done, but he needs to adapt and let the young guys play their style, or I would rather see him on the bench.

My point overall is:
Anyone can call a team out, when they include themselves as the problem. That's not hypocrisy.

Kobe is killing the team by not adapting his playstyle offensively, when his body is broken down.

Byron Scott is retarded.

Too many reliabilities on Defense.

Well, he does get a lot of those looks, then he milks the clock and takes another fadeaway. The biggest problem overall is his 3point shooting also, he's never been a long range shooter, and he's having the worst 3pt shooting performance of any player in history.

Also D'angelo Russell looks like he wants to kill himself when someone asks about the team's offense and Byron Scott

I can't take this anymore. No idea why he's playing. Are the management afraid we'll win a lot if we get a competent coach?

That would imply management know what they are doing

He's such a pos. Can't stand it. It's like a no talent Mourinho who's always in his 3rd season with a team
