It's not "nerve" or "no respect." They are pretty damn close.

SOFT!!!!!

And they are both soft, yes.

who cares about how many good guys he's playing with?

Unless it is Kobe, right? Not saying YOU think that way (or shel) but it's the way of thinking for many people when it comes to Kobe.

Does anyone think the Knicks should have tanked the other night vs the Hawks to slip to 8 to get Chicago instead of Miami?

Seems reasonable to me. Miami is better than Chicago and they'll fuck the Knicks in 4, 5 max.

And yes, trying to steer this ship away from Kobe v. LeBron. We've been down this road a million times I wonder if it'll ever end lol

My sig is really trippy when I post back-to-back

And Kobe folks/Lebron haters do the same thing, just reversed.

why in the world do you care what other people think?

why don't you just form your own educated opinion, do some research and then be confident enough to defend your point regardless of what anyone else says.

Been doing it here for years, sir.

Now, about those Knicks tanking. Nobody agrees?

Oh no he di'nt!!!!

Comparable career numbers, one has 5 titles. I guess we will see where LeBron ends up. Not much you can do.

there numbers aren't ANYWHERE NEAR comparable.

i mean not even in the same ballpark.

if they were comparable i'd prefer Kobe. i have no interest in these guys as humans, i just love greatness. my love for Lebron simply comes by him being the greatest athlete/2nd best player i've ever seen. if Kobe was better or even close, i'd love him too.

Kobe is a legend but he's one of the most overrated players ever. people saying he's top 5 is just wildly outrageous.

Matt90210 wrote:Comparable career numbers

Not really.

Comparable IMO means you can make a case that Kobe's numbers are better.

If you can, I'd love to hear it.

Interesting tweets from Haberstroh, as always.

Lebron's lead in PER this season is the 5th highest margin ever. The top 4, 2 from MJ and 2 from Shaq. They didn't win the MVP in any of those 4 seasons.




Also, a mindbottling stat to put into perspective MJ's dominance: MJ's best statistical season was when he averaged 32/8/8. To put that into perspective, Lebron has put up 32/8/8 ONCE this season(in his best season ever).

7 games for Artest.

Very lucky, I thought it would be worse.

As did I.

And yes Matt, the Knicks would fare better against the Bulls. No shame in pulling a Memphis.

So basically regular season and first round of the playoffs? Or do they only carry over to regular season games next year?

That game, and his entire series against Magic were 2 of the greatest playoff performances I've ever seen.

Billy Hunter running a family business with NBAP Union?

This is pretty ridiculous IMO. It is fine if you want to start your own business and hire your own family members, but something like the NBAP Union should be hiring the most qualified people for the job when openings come up. You can't just be throwing jobs to your kids and your other family members for stuff like that. It makes the entire thing into a joke.

Carries over to the playoffs. If they get Denver, he'll probably miss a game (maybe 2) against the Thunder assuming they beat Dallas which hasn't exactly been easy for them. If the Lakers play Dallas, I'm already dreading.

But it was great to wake up and see that the Clippers lost to Atlanta. Thank you for the gift. Have fun with Memphis . Will be a great series to watch. Really looking forward to that one the most.
