Relax you man of tin, it was just a generalized assumption. I did not mean any of it to be offensive. Would you be happier if I said, "I dont care what any earthling thinks of Kobe?" If so, allow me to rephrase it to that then...
I just watched the post game interview with Kobe and damn, I feel bad for the guy. Played so hard to try to get into the playoffs and then this happens.
Harden is now the best shooting guard in the NBA by default just like Howard when he became the best center in the NBA by default due to injuries.
No chance on playing with a torn achilles. No way. If it is really torn, he's done not only for the season, but possibly for good.
Piece of the NBA just died? Are you guys okay....I think its just that nobody cares about Dwight Howard lol
Just found out about Bryant's injury. Truly shocking. I never want to see a player's career end like that, with the exception of Karla Malone (I would have stood up the cheer). I noticed that several players "tweeted" about Bryant playing too many minutes, and in my opinion, he did play too many for too long a stretch, too many because of his age, and that's on the coach. I suspected that D'Antoni was an idiot. Now it's confirmed. Not a Bryant fan, but he is/was one hell of a player.
Hate him or love him, the guys is one of the toughest NBA players in the league and definitely one of the top 5 NBA players of all time, and to see the way he went out yesterday and possibly not playing like old self even if he recovered is really saddening and heartbreaking.
annnd... This is why you don't play Harden all game because things like this are more likely to happen. Just look at what DAntoni did to Amare, Lin, now Kobe. I don't like Phil Jackson regardless of what Kobe said would've let him play 6 games 48 minutes straight regardless of how dire getting into the playoffs were. Good job DAntoni as much as I think McHale is a bad coach, he's nowhere near the failure level of DAntoni.
Stupid phone...I meant I don't think Phil Jackson would've played Kobe 6 games 48 minutes straight . I like Phil Jackson and think he's one of the best.
