Title: Best Player currently in the NBA
Post by: pappy on July 27, 2004, 08:29:28 PM
who is it.  I see so many people sayin kobe isnt even close on this board so i was wondering who do you think it is.  Me personally kobe might be but if i was to build a team from scratch an i had to build my franchise around one of the guys on the list it would be Garnett.

Kobe.  Give him a pass first PG, a pure shooting SF, a rebounding and defensive PF and C.  Kobe can lead a team to the nba finals

kobe bryant no one on that list can handle the ball and score like him. NO ONE! then on the same tip anyone who is offensively near his level doesn't even have a fourth of his defensive skills. Kobe , only reason why people hate on him is 1. he's not all 'hip hop' 2. he beat their team 3.they're in denial

shut the fuck up kobe ain't even my favorite player bone head! lol


i'm sorry but kobe didn't get shut down by a 40 year old with a knee injury okay, i'm sorry but if you're the 2004 nba's MVP this doesn't happen...i'm sorry but KG gets schooled by almost all of the superstar big men ( shaq, duncan, Webber, hell even brad miller  dunked on kg) if Garnette was half of the great defensive force you say he is how come he can't defend all star big men? Let's see how many all stars has Kobe shut down, who? T-mac in the first half of the game they had with orlando T-mac was getting garded by George and got 38 pionts! the second half They put kobe on him ...dude scores 1 piont and at the same guards kobe and gets raped for 38 points.....that ain't sucking no ones dick that's the truth. Oh and lets skip back to 2001....who brought down the MVP in the finals, not Tyron Lue, not Fisher...oh wait everytime they put kobe on him Iverson was fucking up!  Right there kobe stopped 2 scoring champions.  When was the last time kG stopped duncan? when was the last time KG stopped Shaq? jermain O'neal was doing quite well against KG this year..hmmmmm wow i'm convinced!

KG as most say is the best...he can play any position on the floor..he's just a monster...kobe is second, followed by tim duncan...though in two years lebron will be a top this list...though if i could have one player for one season..it would be shaq cause he does so much for his team mates as in freeing them up for free shots and keep players from driving the hoop defensively...but overall kg

lol, just wasted my time on this. Nothing on there is telling me he's the greatest. I won't bother explaining to you becuase you're convinced Kobe is the greatest, and that's ok with me. Just don't say retarded shit like you did in your first post and I'm cool.

If Kobe gets MVP this year (life after shaq), i'll say Kobe is the greatest. Till then, don't fuck with a man that's been on a team (before this year) with no other all-stars to help him out...he did it all himself for about 5-6 years? Was considerd for MVP 3-4 years in a row? All this with no god damn help and putting up the numbers he did on offence and defence.

Lebron is gonna be great in two-three years  8)

all I can say is watch them stats of Shooting Guard Gods like Bryant or McGrady in their first season.. watch them stats of other Guards who went directly from  High School to the NBA at the age of 18 in their first season.. take also into a account what a versatile player LeBron is.. he can score, he dunk, he can create he can set up he can pass.. he's fast, great ball-handling. 20/5/5 directly from High School, espacially as a guard, noone ever did that. Fuck the hate.

LeBron was pushed on a horrible team...You could take Kareem Rush, put him on the Cavs instead of LeBron, and push the hell out of him, and have him average 20 points a game...They can do that.

the teams no.1 pics are drafted in are most likely horrible ..  and no.1 pics are most likely pushed

honestly, I believe certain ppl cant accept him as the good player he is because of the hype. what had he do to so that ppl like rampant or you accept him as a great player. average 30 points, 10 assists?

I'm not saying he's not a good player...I'm just saying he hasn't proved shit yet...(Besides that he can score 20 points on a horrible team.)

Lebron aint a player yet. He's still a project. I've seen him against Italy, our 23-24 years old guards schooled him all the night. For sure he got talent, for "this kid can do it all" (like they say in a NBA.com promo), but dont run too much with him. He has great potential, but right now he aint in the top5 guards in the league.

Name 5 Shooting Guards who are better (still).. let me help you: let's take Kobe, Pierce, McGrady, Iverson.. hm.. who else? I would say Carter or Stackhouse, but both are pretty close to remain retarded.



P.S. Melo is the guy who's impressing everybody, here in Europe. :o

well, whatever, Melo is an awesome player. still, if you take the italy game to degrade James, I take the Belgrad Game to degrade Melo. he scored 2/12, while James scored 5/6. Also, I see many ppl act like if Anthony had an higher efficiency than LeBron had in the last season. Which is simply not accurate. LeBron had like 18,xx when CarMelo had one of 16,xx or something.
Title: Re: Best Player currently in the NBA
Post by: Smoke on August 08, 2004, 06:45:55 AM
16,xx something plus the team in the Play-Offs, in the West. Anyway naw, i'm not taking one match to degrade Lebron. But he really gave me a negative impression that day not because of his skills, but because of his mental attitude. He was been mentally dominated by our 24-25 years old guards. Melo always played with a great impact, great attitude, no fear, leadership. In the National team and in Denver. And yes, even against Serbia&M. Lebron aint ready yet to be the leader of a team. He's too young. Maybe he will, one day. But now he aint ready yet. If you talk about potential, yeah i agree. He has the same potential Kobe used to have when he was 18. But potential is nothing if you cant carry your team over your shoulder. Look @ McGrady. Great scorer, great looser.
