    Everyone just relax. OP didn’t realize Bullard and Ackerman addressed the whole Kobe thing throughout the Denver game. This is an emotional time for a lot of people who loved Kobe. Let’s take the high road and move on. People make mistakes.

    It's a bad thread regardless. There's no benchmark for how to process and deal with a tragedy like this. Ackerman has experienced personal tragedy in his own life with his parents. People shouldn't be so quick to "shame" others.

    Man, these modern times. How do people have enough time and energy to constantly be in search of inconsequential things to feed their perpetual outrage? It has to be exhausting and cannot be good for mental health.

    Don't worry about it, bud. Without threads like these we wouldn't be able to post things like:

    This ain't it Boomer.

    I'm surprised you still post here since you're the krusty the clown of the forum.

    BTW, every heard of Memorial day?

    Kobe Bryant Adidas commercials with his Free Throw Dunk, Kobe Bryant jumping over a driving car that went viral.

    His age 17 - 25 years old with his Afro, big smile were my favorite memories.

    They literally took an 8 second violation on the court just to commemorate his number, along with the Jazz taking a 24 second violation to commemorate him as well.



    Face it. Your thread is sh**. Now go catch up on the rest of the games you've missed this season.

    I copped to this thread being **** already. Again, my bad, I was misinformed and shouldn't have posted it.

    But if you had basic reading comprehension skills you would have also noticed it was the Denver game I missed because it started at 3:30am here, not the Utah one.

    It is very rare that I miss a game, and even rarer that anyone on clutchfans admits to being as wrong as I was. So you and the other sanctimonious pricks like tinman can take your snarky posts and shove them up your asses.

    The fact you're calling people pricks for calling you out, when you yourself were putting people down incorrectly in the first place, paints you as the prick in this scenario.

    Take your L, put your tail between your legs and walk back out the door and don't say another word about this entire thing.

    Who the hell cares?

    There have been numerous tributes to Kobe Bryant and there will be even more.

    Do you think his family cares if the announcers do a Kobe tribute or not?

    Should they just open every broadcast discussing the loss of a player that is retired and has zero connection to the Rockets team?

    What have you done to pay tribute to Kobe Bryant?

    It just gets to the point where it is excessive and not really about the person being honored anymore. If it bothers you so much, go donate to one of his charities.
