ESPN 1st Take on why players want to go the Cavs for less money

[Meticode]

I wonder why he didn't consider going back to Dallas? The only got better since last year and are a sleeper in the West. Could've been

Chandler/Smith
Dirk/Marion/Wright
Parsons/Jefferson/Marion
Ellis/Harris
Felton/Nelson/Harris

People always flock to the best player in the league

same here He basically said Kobe has a bad spirit/vibe but melo was as welcoming as lebron but he shoots too much for anyone to want to play with him

No he didn't say it like that. He said Kobe was cool with him personally, but he's an "acquired taste". Thats not the same thing as bad spirit/vibe, that would be someone like Lance Stephenson.

And look at you D ride the Cavs

FRONT RUNNER.

Let's be blunt, Kobe isn't all buddy-buddy when you go to his team. Smush Parker was interviewed and talked about the shit Kobe would do with that alpha mentality on that team.

Nothing of what I said was my opinion. I clarified what Stephen A Smith said, but if you're going to be blunt, pass that shit homie.

[Dengness9]

Yeah plus, Smush Parker's opinion doesn't rank very high on my ****s to give meter. But I follow.

The people that didnt like playing with Kobe: Smush Parker, Bynum, Shaq, Dwight Howard

The people that did: Pau Gasol (submissive personality that allowed Kobe to bully him) and Artest (mentally unstable)

at the Artest part.

but LBJ flops tho

[MJ(Mean John)]

This is dumb. When KB was in his prime and earlier, did Malone, Payton, Derek Fisher, Pau, Nick young, Ron Artest (when ppl wanted him on a roster), Jamison, steve blake, steve nash, theo ratliff, Ron harper, Horace Grant, Robert Horry, Matt Barnes including many guys who did not want to leave KB that resigned for less, such as LO, Pau, etc. and many other guys came flying to LA, to play with KB when lakers were trying to win Chips.


Cmon man. KEEP IN MIND, last few years we have had Mike Brown and Mike Antoni as coaches. who the F wants to play for these guys who've burned so many bridges?

Let's blunt, that alpha mentality resulted in 5/7.
Bron's beta mentality resulted in 2/5.

As a fan, you would prefer Kobe's mentality over Bron.

Kobe's 2/7 and 1/18 never forget

[JT123]

Let's blunt, riding Shaq resulted in 5/7.

Completely agree.

[Droid101]

Kobe's 2/7 and 1/18 never forget
