Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Kobe nursing sore groin

Hey unlike Ginobli and the rest of the players in the NBA, Kobe is a man that can play through pain. He doesn't use it as an excuse and will play until his body just explodes. And people wonder why we consider him the best in the league.

Bill Russell has 11 but what I never understood is why the Finals MVP award is named after him when Jordan won more of them than him.

Or because he is thinking about playing in Miami. It's retired there as well.

Posted Friday October 30, 2009, About: Some NBA execs believe Donaghy's claims

Yeah because its kinda hard to get lucky against an opponent during a 7 game span.

Posted Friday October 30, 2009, About: Cavs struggling without West?

Seriously, they think Delonte West is the reason why the lost to the Raptors. Maybe if Mo Williams went out of LeBron was injured they could make an excuse. But West is no better than Moon or Parker.

Posted Tuesday October 20, 2009, About: Jackson: I'm going to leave Kobe alone

Well Kobe does study martial arts in the offseason to help his basketball skills. So I don't know.

Posted Thursday October 15, 2009, About: Jackson calls out Kobe & teammates

Yeah thats why they doubled and tripled teamed him. They thought he was just as good as they were so thats why they did that. I don't know anyone who double teams jackson or even gameplans for him.

Posted Thursday October 15, 2009, About: Jackson calls out Kobe & teammates

No.... If you aren't as good you aren't as good. Can't wait to see Kobe play them again this season. Hope he's still on the team because I want him demoralized and crying by the seasons end for even thinking such ridiculousness.

He has that regardless of where he goes. So why not have NY and China.

I always thought things started from the bottom and worked up. The foundation has to be sturdy first. Then you worry about the extra. You kind of had it backwards.

All I said was that before starting most games Bonner was only averaging 4.8 points ok. And I never said Bogans wasn't a defensive ace but if you are going to use that as a fact that he is a greater than Brown you have to acknowlege that he is also a good defensive player.

Come on man. Tim Duncan is a top 5 player. Injuries last season prevented them from making it further. I mean I am a Laker fan but even I know that's bs.

Top 5 in no particular order

Wade
Kobe
LeBron
Tim Duncan
Garnett

Howard is not there yet. I mean he was a dominate force on defense but did have the offensive skills to match.

Garnett and Tim Duncan are excellent at both.

McDyess- double double close yes but no cigar. You conveniently forget to mention Odoms 8.2 rebounding average.

Blair- Summerleague! Really!. I'm not even going to say how biased that sounds.

Bonner- Thats not fair to use because he got those numbers starting most of those games. Before when he came off the bench he was only earning 4 points a game. AGAIN biased.

If you know why Brown was used mostly in the playoffs you would know it was because of his defense on the opposing point guards. BIASED

I'm not trying to say any bench is better than the other. But just like I won't claim to know everything about your team because I am biased I would like you to admit that you are doing the same.

Posted Tuesday October 06, 2009, About: Bynum coming off Lakers bench

No we don't need anymore offense. Whe have to much of that from all the other positions. We need a defensive center that can handle or at least some what contain the other big men. Amare can not do that. Someone like Perkins would be great.

Posted Monday October 05, 2009, About: Prison guards blocking for Plaxico

****.....

How many people do the have to let go in order for us to get it. I mean they let off OJ, he is black; they let off Ray Lewis, he is black, they let off Michael Jackson, he was black. They sent Paris Hilton to jail for drunk driving and she didn't harm anyone, not even herself. Why is it a race thing. HE IS STUPID. Wes Welker, Jason Whitten and Kevin Boss haven't shown the stupidity he has shown by shooting himself. Its not even like he is in regular jail like he should be. No one else gets guards to block for them no matter what they are in for. So just stop with the race card. Obama's President. Everyone just shut up now.

Posted Monday October 05, 2009, About: Prison guards blocking for Plaxico

He is a violent offender. He is a danger to himself and to those around him. I mean if you could accidentally shoot yourself you need to be removed from society.

Posted Monday October 05, 2009, About: Weis: Notre Dame deserves higher ranking

Ohio State should just be banned from playing in any type of championship. They just end up losing.

Posted Monday October 05, 2009, About: Ex-Patriot to Brady: 'Take off the skirt'

Do you ever see the hits Big Ben takes. The Ravens have done much worse to him then what they did to Tom Brady. No one complains when it happens to him.

Posted Friday October 02, 2009, About: Carter already in Magic's doghouse

Think about what you just said about being better at the pick and role. Then analyze who you just added to your team. Think about it. You just added Shaq, one of the worst players even in his prime to defend against the pick and roll. He is far to slow to keep up now and players use that to their advantage all the time. So maybe everything you said might be right but they just got worse defending against the magics pic and roll.

Posted Friday October 02, 2009, About: Carter already in Magic's doghouse

What are you talking about. He was one of the best defenders that I have seen against Kobe besides Pietrus in the finals. He played wonderful defense on him because he has so much length on the opponent and good mobility.
