  1. Jerry West's evaluation and pick of Kobe Bryant as a 17 year old is considered the greatest move in NBA history.
  2. More AI search stuff: Kobe Bryant is widely considered the toughest NBA player ever due to his relentless "Mamba Mentality," enabling him to play through severe injuries, maintain an unparalleled work ethic, and dominate opponents mentally and physically.
  3. Kobe Bryant famously played through the 2009-10 NBA season with a broken right index finger, leading the Los Angeles Lakers to the 2010 championship. He suffered an avulsion fracture on Dec. 11, 2009, but refused surgery, modified his shooting technique, and won the NBA Finals MVP. [1, 2]
  4. 1987 NBA defensive player of the year Michael Cooper says 17 year old Kobe was the toughest player he ever defended. He guarded Bird and Jordan.
  5. I love Bird, but he was literally dominated by James Worthy from 1985-1987.
  6. That's true. It's still three out of five. An all time Lakers prime team would beat an all time team from every other team. Magic, Kobe, Worthy, Kareem and Shaq would beat Oscar, Jordan, Bird, Duncan, and Russell. Put James, West, Wilt on the bench. They'd kill any team you could construct of non-Lakers.
  7. What's your favorite tidily-winks foursome?
  8. I've mentioned this before, but it's worth repeating. Best basketball players in the world by decade since 1970. Four out of five are Lakers. 1970s: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 1980s: Magic Johnson 1990s: Michael Jordan 2000s: Kobe Bryant 2010s: LeBron James
  9. Here's your Robinson and Duncan Spurs defense.
  10. Durant and ask him who his favorite player is.
  11. Sterling literally releases the ball from about two inches above his ear. He's losing at least ten to twelve inches on his release point if he shot properly. That's not good form no matter how you define it. Doesn't matter what his percentage is in high school.
  12. Remember last year at this time they were talking about Declan Duru's leaping ability and shooting. Said he couldn't move laterally and had zero elevation on his jumper.
  13. We'll see how well he shoots with that low release point when he has some long athletes defending him.
  14. Many of these rankings are nuts. Arkansas doesn't have a legitimate 4 or 5 on their roster. Kansas doesn't have a proven player on their roster.
  15. It's coaching malpractice. Without being some kind of freak athlete, you can't expect to overcome funky mechanics.
  16. Next time Leavitt has a good passing game will be the first.
  17. I don't know what that means. Made a lot of money of AMD today. Like Kobe killing SA in game 1 2001 WCF.
  18. I'll take Kobe January 2006 against any athlete in the history of the world.
  19. I remember hearing about this in December 1995.
  20. You got that right. Who should a fan love more than Kobe who followed his career since before he was drafted?
