  1. @Gerry Hamilton Captain Koontz reminds me of Kobe and stories my dad told me about Vietnam. And Kobe is younger than me.
  2. @Gerry Hamilton October 1994
  3. Adebayo's game doesn't compare to Kobe or Chamberlain. Phil said Kobe would have been better than MJ if he had bigger hands.
  4. Has to with UT keeps losing when they need to win for a tournament birth.
  5. The day Kobe became the best player in the world when he 21.
  6. It ain't Pat. Phil was the greatest coach ever. Kobe isn't coming, which is more important. We need Arch to be half Kobe.
  7. No serious sports person disagrees with Kobe's assessment. Kobe said the Lakers would have won 12 titles if Shaq worked like him. AI search: "Kobe Bryant is widely considered the hardest-working athlete of all time due to his legendary "Mamba Mentality," characterized by 2 a.m. workouts, relentless 5 a.m. gym sessions, and obsessive, around-the-clock training. His work ethic was described as unparalleled, focusing on extreme preparation that outmatched peers."
  8. You didn't. I'm thinking about basketball history. When Kobe was 18 he told Shaq, "You're fat. Get the rebound if I miss."
  9. We don't need nothing We suck. In 1996, Lakers GM Jerry West explicitly told Shaquille O'Neal that 17-year-old rookie Kobe Bryant was going to be "better" than him, assuring him they would win multiple championships together. West, having watched Kobe's workout, told Shaq that Kobe would be "the best player in the world." That's dream stuff, but we got nothing like it.
  10. Don't deserve to be in. Rather not have pansies get in.
  11. Only thing I'd do for 2.7 Mill is buy Elon Musk stock.
  12. I don't agree that Matas is a necessity. He's good offensively at times, but he turns the ball over so much and is so limited defensively that it's not really even a wash. He's definitely not worth more than 2 mil. I'm guessing Swain is gone to the draft, Heide and Wilcher transfer and the rest of the roster is completely fungible. The combo guard stuff is hit or miss, whereas true a point is gold. I hope Miller looks at the backcourt from this season and realized he better get a real lead guard. He was a real lead guard, so you'd think he'd understand that.
  13. Cronin's a good coach. He can be acerbic with the media, but he really knows what he's doing.
  14. I'm dealing with nuts in terms of history. I've been watching a 49ers channel by Larry Krueger last few years. Guy constantly mentions Emmitt Smith and the Cowboys beating their ass in 1992 and 1993. Says they can't take that and they still need to get even. Ain't no one here close to that.
  15. Speaking of forty years ago... Growing up in the 80s, my father's deal was that you weren't worth a crap if you didn't outwork your keep. I don't think you boys understand that.
  16. Age gap at nothing. My oldest brother is fifteen years older than me.
  17. That goober Kobe has three titles. I don't care. He practices too hard. Shaq don't practice. Media and fans tell me I'm the best. That's all that matters. We talkin about modern basketball. You ain't gotta practice. Shi*. Let's look at the damn stats. I'm better, man. Hell, I ball out in the games.
  18. We talkin about the times. The times changes everything, man. I mean, people talk and get their stuff going. That's all that really matters. Just like me trying in the game. I don't need damn practice. Things are different now. Don't need no damn practice. Never gonna a win a title, but that don't matter. Times are are different now, man. You gotta roll with it.
  19. We're dealing with people who think you can cheat physics and form. You can't. Time doesn't change that. You can manipulate people and their views. That will change their effort level. It will make them say stupid things. It won't change reality. There's a reason Shaq couldn't be stopped when he actually worked and tried. That reason is physics. Problem was he didn't do it more than a few years.
  20. Flaws? I'm dealing with munchkins. Magic wouldn't be considered a combo guard. He couldn't shoot. He couldn't defend other guards when he was past the age of 24. He literally led the team with passing. He could get downhill and score if the other team decided to play him with a guard. No team could defend his passing off the dribble (I don't say "bounce" because it's stupid). He was literally one dimensional. That one dimension was unstoppable.
  21. They admitted they suck. They also admitted they won't do anything with a team full of 5'10" to 6'5" guys. But hey, Bucky's a genius.
  22. Time to watch TexAgs a little this morning to see their latest excuses for the failures of Bucky ball.
  23. Unfortunately, I've already moved on to entropy. I think that's closer to the truth as far you're concerned.
  24. You're so smart, you make me ponder perpetual motion.
