what do u think of the fact that Kobe is adding to his legacy by taking on a whole nother role no one knew he was capable of? 39 assists in the last 3 games, playing like Magic Johnson, just passed MJ's career assist total. do u ever think your beloved LeBron will reach that echelon?

Passing the basketball is something LeBron does better than just about every point guard in the league for the last nine years. As for what I think about Kobe doing it..."about damn time".

Is this thread really necessary?  Get off the Kobe shlong man.

Should we make a thread every time some player or coach says "Lebron or KD are the best players in the league"?

I don't know why you think it's so far-fetched of an idea that just because their players in the league, they don't carry simple human emotions.

More of half of the leagues fan, who were fans of him on Cleveland hate him now because he made the switch. Why is it SOOO crazy that players in the league who are actually more directly affected by it wouldn't take sides?

Plus you just said "Every European likes Kobe more". Maybe it's because the dude lived in Italy for years. But I guess that's a crazy idea too lmao.

I just find it hilarious that you twist & turn it into "Kobe has shown us a new side of his game" when it's really just because him shooting is more of a cancer than anything lol. 14-3 when he takes less than 19 shots. Doing something he should of been doing his whole career. Just blinded by always being second to Jordan & trying so hard to surpass that; probably fearing being 3rd to LeBron & down the road 4th to Durant.

I just can't wait for him to pass the ball to Nash in the corner with eleven seconds on the clock because he's wide open & you defend the fact he did it. You'll talk down about it now because it hasn't happened yet...but it'll come. You'll have something positive to say about it lol.

See the truth behind it all is that MJ was the first wing player to play like the game is played today. This is really only the second generation of this style of ball, it isn't that crazy of idea to think these SG/SF players are just going to get better as time goes on. Would it really shock you if in five years there was somebody we all compared to Kobe, LeBron & Durant? & then somebody after him?

Unless something crazy happens league wise, it's going to be LeBron v. Durant for the next six seasons, at least. Somebody is going to take home those rings. & then in the next six years, Durant will only still be 30 lol & his style of play won't really limit him.

wtf are u talking about? Kobe's had an amazing season, even before he began playing like Magic Johnson....the reason the Lakers were losing was because the game-plan was senseless. nash pick-n-roll or kobe iso. thats what d'antoni came with...everyone else, just stand around and watch....none of the players not named kobe could score consistently to save their life. what does kobe do? completely reforms his game and becomes a point guard...this is a natural born scorer we're talking about. with his unmatched will to win, the man takes matters into his own hands to make sure everyone gets spoon-fed their points so that no one has an excuse as to why they're not defending or moving on offense...now, while kobe was supposed to be our primary scorer, he's now depended on to get others scoring. that is not his game, yet he's doing it like he's played this way his whole career....is that not special to u? come on, now...derek fisher once said kobe could lead the league in assists if he wanted to. i never knew how serious he was being, cuz he really could.


and no, just cuz kobe is passing doesn't mean he'll turn into a complete pussy like your beloved lebron....killer instinct, ur either born with it or you're not....and if u were born with it, you don't lose it.

LMAO Kobe decides to pass the ball for 4 games and now NIK calling him Magic Johnson

[Chamillitary Click]

The love fest is embarrassing.

[Chamillitary Click]

It is kind of funny though that Kobe has been made fun of for being a ballhog and trying to score through triple teams with wide open teammates and now that he's decided for the first time in seventeen years to pass to those wide open teammates, he's on some Magic shit.

[Sccit]

the numbers dont lie......ugly loss today, though

You forgot to mention he played more games

Seriously tho, he played 3 great games in a ugly Lakers season and your calling him the second Magic Johnson Calm down man and let's wait a lil' bit longer before we start those statements

[Chamillitary Click]

Funny he's nutting over this when LBJ has done it his entire career in a much more efficient manner. Just goes to show the extreme bias and how taking him seriously is retarded.
