The insecurity of your post makes me smile.

[RaceBannana]

Yup, an amazing performance.
He usually dominates in the WCFs.

[jlauber]

Kobe is STILL the most "clutch" player in today's NBA. I honestly believe that Lebron has surpassed him in terms of all-around skills...but right now, in a BIG game...I would take Kobe in a heartbeat.

Having said that, though...Gasol and Odom are quite a combination. I think Gasol has become the premier "big man" in the league.

Only insecurity is Dwight Howard start beasting right now. And Wade might have a small shot. Cant knock him with that garbage team

[plowking]

The insecurity is getting funnier as retards continue to post.

omg the hate!! lol, such bitterness

[Doranku]

The insecurity is getting funnier as retards continue to post.
I don't understand where this 'insecurity' cop-out comes from. Kobe has played superb in each of his last 6 games, the Lakers just took game 1 in the WCF, and both LeBron and Wade have been bounced already. What is there to be insecure about? :confusedshrug:

[branslowski]

Plowking isn't a hater...

And Kobe did have a sick ass Game!!...:bowdown: :bowdown:

[Allstar24]

There is no need for threads like this...you're just gonna invite trolls who have nothing better to do now that their team's out of the playoffs. Everyone can check ESPN for Kobe's stats.

[LA_Showtime]

I actually thought he looked sort of robotic at the beginning of the game. Once he loosened up, the Suns had no answers.

[jdem]

What is there to be insecure about? :confusedshrug:

Plenty if you're a Kobe hater:


both LeBron and Wade have been bounced already.

Once again, insecurity bright as day.

I honestly believe some of you Kobe fans don't even believe what you're typing, and simply saying it so that maybe if you do type it enough times, others will start to believe you.

Someone is mad Dwade & LBJ got eliminated hella early

[plowking]

The arrogance and stupidity of Kobe fans will never cease to amaze me. For a second, I thought you guys were 2nd to Lebron fans, but you pop up and reclaim the title when need be.

[Juges8932]

Kobe played a great game. He's been playing really well these last several games. Hopefully he can keep it up. Hopefully they can beat the Suns in 5 and he can get some more rest and that the Magic/Celtics go 7 and beat each other up, haha.

[plowking]

Someone is mad Dwade & LBJ got eliminated hella early

Once again, the insecurity.

If you think LBJ is better than Kobe, well sh!t you must be a hater, right?

No one is mad. Plus, how is the previous round, hella early? Slap yourself for using slang inappropriately.

[plowking]

Why would I be mad? If anything I'm rooting for the Lakers to take it out from here if the Suns can't.

Bad day for Kobe haters. In fact every day is a bad day for Kobe haters. The man is a 4 time champion. No "belief" required. The dude has actually won something :bowdown:

Your a cool dude but, are you saying Kobe fans are stupid because they don't think Wade/LeBron are the best?

The Best Player in the game is an opinionated debate...And who can blame anyone for picking the Bean...40pts in WCF...Only one still playing..exc..

Kobe cares about winning the game, he may not make the best decisions with the ball all the time, he may not be as gifted as LeBron, but nobody can say that Kobe has never wanted to win a championship. LeBron James does not want to win one.

Kobe the best?:oldlol: :oldlol:

[Juges8932]

Lol, don't begin to compare Wade's early exit to Kobe still being in it. That is asinine while "playing" naive, pretending like Wade had adequate help. Wade played outside his damn mind and there wasn't much he could do. The Celtic team that has popped up in the playoffs is not a 4th seed, lol. Kobe is playing great, Wade played great.

[Batz]

Why would I be mad? If anything I'm rooting for the Lakers to take it out from here if the Suns can't.

[catch24]

Keep things in perspective guys, don't over sensationalize
performances. Great game, but Phoenix defense is terrible. I expect him to put up big numbers all series. Assuming that LA advances to the Finals, will Kobe shoot and/or score like this vs Boston/Orlando? Sh*t, I hope so.

[Allstar24]

How many times has plowking used the word "insecure" in this thread? That in itself is very telling :oldlol:

Agreed, I have never actually hated Kobe (don't know him), it is hard to dislike someone that cares about playing basketball and wants to take his team to a championship.

[elementally morale]

Arguing why Kobe Bryant is NOT the best player in the game shows just as much insecurity as arguing why he is. He is arguably the best and he is arguably not the best. So what?

I can't really get it why you guys can't enjoy this game for what it is, seriously. Labeling hin the best / not the best on ISH will not make his accomplishments double / go away.

He had a nice game. BTW, Kobe also put up like 5 really dumb shots today. Agt least 5. He still hasn't played all that well for my taste, it was mainly about his shot falling tonight. But I'm all right with that after all. 40 is 40.

[YouGotServed]

Kobe Bryant had 40 points but this Phoenix defense was horrible. LOL at the Suns poster who said Grant Hill was going to do a good job on Kobe. :oldlol:

No, I'm saying some Kobe fans are stupid because that's all they care about. Kobe being better than Wade/Lebron, and furthermore proving their stupidity by using stupid ranking schemes and reasons.

The Bean played great. So did Gasqueezy. Kobe's finger lady must be a miracle worker.

Grant Hill got called for a bunch of chintzy shit though.

they're stupid for not agreeing with you? i'm sorry but everyone is entitled to their opinion. oh and for the record, kobe is leading his team to the finals while lebron is busy weeping in a bathroom.

[ImmortalD24]

No, I'm saying some Kobe fans are stupid because that's all they care about. Kobe being better than Wade/Lebron, and furthermore proving their stupidity by using stupid ranking schemes and reasons. No, not really..

plowking, you're probably one of the least biased wade fans on ish, and I agree with a lot of your posts over the years, but you are totally wrong about this and throughout this thread. Just let it be and enjoy the game.

[plowking]

they're stupid for not agreeing with you? i'm sorry but everyone is entitled to their opinion. oh and for the record, kobe is leading his team to the finals while lebron is busy weeping in a bathroom.

No, they can have their opinion.

I don't care about Lebron, I don't like him, nor the Cavs...

Some of them are retards because all they care about is rankings, and whether Kobe is number 1. I don't give a damn, have Kobe number 1, though some of the posts in here just go to show that Kobe fans (and Lebron fans for that matter) can't go into a thread without taking jabs at one another.

My point in case:

"What's Lebron doing today?"

"How can people even compare Bron to Kobe, its an insult" - from the game thread.

How boring and sad must your life be if thats all you think about and look to get across on this forum? Provide an opinion and move on.

[chazzy]

What else do you expect? He had a good game and with the sheer number of Kobe fans on this site, of course people will say those things. When Lebron has a good game people say the same things. Not a big deal

Can we stop saying insecure? I said it enough times. I own that word now.

Yes, that's exactly what I act like, despite every mention of Kobe/Laker fans I put "some" in front of it. Learn how to read before you bother stipulating something that just isn't true.

No it doesn't mater who people think the best ball player is. Give your opinion, make a few points, move on.

If you actually read the thread, you could have found the answers to your question there.

[monkeypox]

It may be tiresome, but it's not nearly as tiresome as people that spend their time talking about other posters rather than basketball or the topic at hand. This was just a thread about a fan praising a player who happened to have a great game. You had to come in here with your dime store psychology and derail it by insulting another poster. When pressed on it you just turn to more insults. You really are coming off as insecure in this thread. Grow up.

You've sure typed a lot for someone who is not bothered and doesn't care. And you tend to have this very same problem about Kobe/LeBron/Wade over and over and over again. For more than a year now. Most of the time you are here is spent with telling people about these guys. You seem a bit insecure about Wade.

Just saying.

[biasedfan]

You're all a bunch of insecure babies, wow. more fan wars please. great game by kobe though, sure shut charles barkley up, god he's the biggest kobe hater i've ever seen, i really hate his commentating.

[coin24]

Why is Lebron even mentioned in this topic?????


Anyone that says he has clearly been the better player in the last 2 years is completely retarded.
Unfortunately Lebron has lived up to the Lechoke nickname.

I used to think they were about even, but lebrons crappy attitude and zero desire to win or make sacrifices is pathetic. Shut down the lane/ let him play Lebron ball and its game over cavs... He has barely any mid range shot, very streaky 3 ball, and no post moves. Kobe is the opposite and has been sucessful in the playoffs...


His performance in game 1 was outstanding, same as against the jazz:applause:

because if we started a thread for everytime someone had a great game ISH's front page would be ridiculous. was kobes statline tonight better than what wade or bron has put up this playoffs? i mean serious. rondos tripl double was more impressive going from a statline pov. Kobe is one the greatest ever, no doubt. but 40 5 5 is worth a new thread now? top ten players of all time usually put up statlines that are equal or better in the playoffs. check 2000 shaq, or 93 jordan or 85 magic or 86 bird or 94 hakeem.

it isnt thread worthy.

I have, since like I said, its boring discussing who's better, since its brought up everyday. At no point in here did I argue who was the better player out of Kobe, Lebron or Wade, since I don't care.
You on the other hand come in the thread acting as an impartial fan, despite being a blatant homer. It's nice to know you still remember conversations we had a year ago...


You trying to label people as insecure comes off as you being insecure.

Plowking on fire today

Please, Plowking calls me a Kobe Homer every time I say that I believe Kobe is better then someone. Even though it makes no sense since I'm always arguing that Kobe shouldn't be ranked so high all time. But if you don't agree with him you're a homer or insecure

[Andrei89]

Well i don't know about all this.

What i do know that at this moment.

18 may 2010 Wade> Kobe..I can only begin to imagine how Wade would do with 2 big men , one of them who scores 25/13 and one that is a presence in the paint. + a 6th man that can be a rebounding machine and a versatile scorer + one of the best on ball defenders in the league.

My god Kobe is so great mayn!:lol :lol

See this is why i can never agree with these Kind of arguments, they're based on to much speculation. Like If Wade was on the Lakers he would do this, Or if Lebron were on the Lakers he would do this, Of if Kg was on the Spurs he would have done this or if Cp3 was on the Jazz he would have done this.
I can only compare what players have actually done not what they could have done in a different situation.

[Andrei89]

It's the comparing that annoys me

Kobe is so great look how far he got and Wade didn't.

or

Kobe is so great he is win it all.

Ofc the forget the team wins it all and not Kobe. 80% of the laker fans on this forum are not really laker fans. IF Kobe is done they jump on another bandwagon

I just say let it go there's good arguments anyway you go. See one of the reason's I'm holding Wade higher up then Lebron right now is how much better Wade performed against Boston. Everyone has reasons for their opinions i guess. And Bandwagoners willl be bandwagoners

I'll finally join in the debate and say there is no way that Wade is better than Lebron right now. One series doesn't change 80+ games prior to that.

[Yung D-Will]

See I personally when comparing players as close as Wade,Lebron and Kobe I take how they performs in that playoffs as a big factor in comparing them. Especially when they both faced the same team. It seemed to me the Wade was excellent against Boston whiles Lebron gave up. To me when you compare close players playoff performances can tilt it in either direction.

[MagicalLA]

The insecurity of your post makes me smile.

Wrong answer, you are the one with the insecurity, getting mad everytime Wade is not in the discussion.

No, I'm saying some Kobe fans are stupid because that's all they care about. Kobe being better than Wade/Lebron, and furthermore proving their stupidity by using stupid ranking schemes and reasons.

Lamar Odom dropped 19 points and 19 rebounds. Where's his thread?

[coin24]

When i compare them i look at moves, work ethic and performance..

Kobes pivot, step, pump fake is close to perfection and is great to watch. Even when double teamed he can post up and create...
Same goes for wade, an awesome array of moves..

Like ive said before i used to enjoy watching lebron but honestly not anymore. Apart from his athleticism and dunks he has no real jumpshot, very streaky and no post moves for someone his size... Against boston he was dribbling off his own legs/feet and bricked every shot he took...
You can blame the elbow or teammates or whatever but it somehow didnt hurt in game 3???
The guy plays a losing style of bball and its everyones fault but his own. I really want to see him go to new york and see what he can do.

I've been a lurker on this forum for quite some time, one thing I have come to know is Andrei is the most bitter and ignorant poster on this board. Regardless of what Kobe does or has achieved, he will continue to see through rose tinted glasses.

[Papaya Petee]

Because he's the first player ever to drop 40 on the Suns and Grant freaking Hill. :rolleyes:

Wouldn't be surprised if he averaged 45 PPG in this series if Suns continue to play such awful defense.

Actually he is. Apparently that's the first time someone scored 40 pts against the Suns this season. I found it weird too.

It's fun to see plowking getting owned all over the thread :oldlol:

Wow, then I just owned myself in that case.

Why because Laker/Kobe fans were the only ones that cared enough to respond?

Can you go a post in a thread I've posted without mentioning my name? Or do I really get you going that much Allstar? :oldlol:

[Mentally_Pretty]

No, they can have their opinion.

I don't care about Lebron, I don't like him, nor the Cavs...

Some of them are retards because all they care about is rankings, and whether Kobe is number 1. I don't give a damn, have Kobe number 1, though some of the posts in here just go to show that Kobe fans (and Lebron fans for that matter) can't go into a thread without taking jabs at one another.

My point in case:

"What's Lebron doing today?"

"How can people even compare Bron to Kobe, its an insult" - from the game thread.

How boring and sad must your life be if thats all you think about and look to get across on this forum? Provide an opinion and move on.
this is a got damn message board chump. people argue and have disscusion while having fun. quit being so uptight and remove the sand from your ****** faccit.

just because people are are prasing Kobes performance and saying he still the best doesn't mean their lives is boring

First of all, it wasn't just Laker/Kobe fans who responded to you...this is the only thread in which I've mentioned your name and that's only because you're acting quite obnoxious.

[Killer_Instinct]

Why all the insecurity?

[O.J A 6'4Mamba]

Kobe has always been the best player in the world for awhile. LeBron needs to win to take that crown from him absurd stats don't cut it, just like Michael Jordan had to win to take the crown for Bird and Magic even though MJ averaged an insane 37.1 ppg in the modern era since the merger. Until then Kobe deserves to carry that title, for crying out loud the guy is about to make it to the finals for his 3rd straight time and will probably win back to back titles. his 7th appearance in his career.

[KAJ=GOAT]

Once again, insecurity bright as day.

I honestly believe some of you Kobe fans don't even believe what you're typing, and simply saying it so that maybe if you do type it enough times, others will start to believe you.

Kobe is a 4 time champion
Kobe is a 4 time champion

oh wait,

he really is a 4 time champion.

[KAJ=GOAT]

Lol, don't begin to compare Wade's early exit to Kobe still being in it. That is asinine while "playing" naive, pretending like Wade had adequate help. Wade played outside his damn mind and there wasn't much he could do. The Celtic team that has popped up in the playoffs is not a 4th seed, lol. Kobe is playing great, Wade played great.


Rewind to 2006

"Wade is better than Kobe,

hes playing for the title".

[KAJ=GOAT]

Keep things in perspective guys, don't over sensationalize
performances. Great game, but Phoenix defense is terrible. I expect him to put up big numbers all series. Assuming that LA advances to the Finals, will Kobe shoot and/or score like this vs Boston/Orlando? Sh*t, I hope so.


and,


who was the last person to score 40 against the Suns in these playoffs?

To save you some time, I'll give you the answer.

Nobody.

Kobe is the first to score 40 against the Suns. The two previous high games against the Suns were 31 points, by Miller and Aldridge.

[KAJ=GOAT]

because if we started a thread for everytime someone had a great game ISH's front page would be ridiculous. was kobes statline tonight better than what wade or bron has put up this playoffs? i mean serious. rondos tripl double was more impressive going from a statline pov. Kobe is one the greatest ever, no doubt. but 40 5 5 is worth a new thread now? top ten players of all time usually put up statlines that are equal or better in the playoffs. check 2000 shaq, or 93 jordan or 85 magic or 86 bird or 94 hakeem.

it isnt thread worthy.


Who made you click on the thread and come post in it?

Nobody.

So why are you here again?

People don't need to, the fact is already out there...

[Samurai Swoosh]

Kobe was slicing n dicing them last night.

1st post since the game, sorry for being late.

Anyone else notice Kobe moving more quickly and gracefully? Less pain, maybe? Did he have fluid removed from his knee which made him feel better?

[PurpleChuck]

In the 4th quarter, I saw him did a turnaround fadeaway effortlessly and I knew he was different.

Maybe the media ticked him off abit with all the 2007 Suns/Lakers series...

If they were better,

why are they at home watching?

[chazzy]

yall so insecure.

That game was rigged. Grant Hill got 4 fouls for breathing on Kobe and was only allowed to play 20 minutes.

That game was rigged. Grant Hill got 4 fouls for breathing on Kobe and was only allowed to play 20 minutes.
1st foul: offensive foul when he pushed Fisher out of his way
2nd foul: reach-in foul on Kobe
3rd foul: hit Gasol on the jaw when he tried to grab the ball
4th: foul: impeded Kobe's progress


OMG he was just breathing down Kobe's neck. :hammerhead:
