I’m trying to understand what Kobe has to do with anything. Or everything 

I remember watching this live in 2009 and thinking, "Man, we can't  lose with these balls." https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-daZQmXC5O8

There's a reference to "Mamba" at the entrance to the Longhorns locker room. You tell me.

It's a reference to Brian Scalabrine. The White Mamba even grows burnt orange hair.

Kobe v Vince. Kobe v Iverson. Kobe v TMac. Kobe v Carmelo. Kobe Webber. Kobe v Kidd. Kobe v Pierce. Kobe v Garnett. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfqmBTcF8ZE

It is kind of ironic and sad that Kobe will end up being the second all time best laker shooting guard behind Luka—the slav mamba.

What about Jerry West - Hillbilly Mamba?

So the initial report was " Representatives of Steve Sarkisian have let NFL decision makers know he would be interested in head coaching opportunities" but that didn't come from Sark or Jimmy Sexton... So what representatives was she referencing. Also she in no way gave any context to the situation and just said most college coaches are interestedin the NFL. I've been back and forth on the report, but her response here just seems like she made it up.

If you know anything about Russini she 100% made up the report.  The content is still probably true (Sark being interested in the NFL) but only because it’s true about almost every college coach.  
 

This clip pretty much confirms she didn’t talk to anyone in the NFL or Sark or his reps, she just intended to gain clicks at the possible cost of Sark and the Texas team.  Very classic Russini.

Conspiracy time... Russini wrote the quote at the very end of an article, editor makes it the headliner, athletic also dunked on Arch... Anti texas editors at Athletic?? ☠️

[Hornio]

If Arch turns it on and has a strong end to the season and is poised for a big year next year at Texas, there is no f-ing way Sarkisian is abandoning him and the Mannings to go coach the worst team in the NFL. No way.  The value of the relationship with the Mannings is more valuable than whatever he gains by going to the NFL.  Now, if Arch struggles and looks like he can’t be redeemed, then I could see Sark fleeing before his reputation takes a hit (if an NFL team would even hire him which is questionable).

I don’t think Arch enters in to the calculus one bit. If Sark wants a shot at the NFL he’ll go for it. If he wants to stay at the college level, he stays.

I don't know what you smokin, but it must be good. Luka be a PG, not a SG. He ain't even Jerry West. Not close to Magic or Kobe.

[harveycmd]

Last time I checked Magic had four titles and Kobe had three by the time they were old as fat boy.

Just rewatched Kobe score 45 against Duncan and Robinson in game one of WCF when he was 22. Five dunks, big left handed dunked in the face of Duncan. What does fatty have?

[harveycmd]

Only player in NBA history to outscore a team by himself through three quarters was Kobe against the Mavs on 20 December 2005. About three weeks before he scored 81.

Who won more titles?

[harveycmd]

When Jerry West singed Shaq in July 1996, he told him that Kobe was going to be better than him.

Casual misinformed take.

At 22 years old Kobe Bryant averaged 30/7/7 on 49% shooting throughout the 2001 playoffs while playing elite defense against a stacked West. He averaged 33.3/7/7 against the mighty Spurs lol. 

He did this against 4 teams that finished with over 50 reg season wins.

The Lakers had the 2 best players in the sport but the team around them was relatively shallow. They averaged only 103-104 ppg as a team and Kobe accounted for 30% of their scoring and like 45% of the team’s offensive production (scoring + assists + offensive rebounds). 

I swear people have brain rot over Kobe Bryant. There is a reason almost every former player from the 90s through 2010 says he is the best player they played with or against outside of Michael Jordan (for some of the 90s guys).

Kobe Bryant is the best shooting guard of all time behind MJ and he would be averaging over 40 ppg in this modern version of the NBA lol.

Grant Hill said Kobe was easily the best player he ever played against.
