Why the **** is Kobe on the list? He was garbage after 2013. Put Lillard in his place.

Kobe is one of the most celebrated athletes of the 2010s though.

Lillard should also be on the list, but not at the expense of Kobe.

It's very possible Lebron will be all Decade 1st team, 3x in a row

[ArbitraryWater]

Kobe is there but Dirk not? Melo 2nd team? Lool

Kobe has less business being here than Dirk


Anyway, its an arbitrary time span after all. Do 05-14 and there ya go

[QUOTE=SpaceJam]He played 4 seasons this decade before going down with injury....

Either Kobe fans are severely retarded or Kobe

It....it's not arbitrary at all you dumb ****. I know English is not your first language, but do you know what arbitrary means?

The fact that you are trying to justify it with that is hilarious.

He ONLY played 4 good seasons in a 10 year span (of which he was retired for 3 years btw) and STILL made the all decade team.


That is impressive af, flat out.

Giannis
Kawhi
Wade

All made it off 4 GOOD seasons, it's really not that rare bro

Only Giannis is comparable, the other two you're out of your goddamn mind.


Wade had 8 quality seasons this decade. The first he was an MVP candidate, the next 4 he made 4 straight finals appearances and won 2 titles, and the following 3 after that he played 60+ games in each season and led his teams to the playoffs (including the Bulls), omitting 2015 because of Bosh being injured and that mid season trade for Goran...he still averaged 20+ and played like a star.


Kawhi won his FMVP in 2014, and had 4 strong seasons following that...he started his career in 2012 ffs.


Kobe only had 4 seasons where he was still playing like a superstar, he went down with injuries in 2013 and only played 40 games in the following 2 seasons before coming back for his farewell tour in which he played 60 games. You can compare that to Giannis's 4 good seasons, albeit you are comparing growth vs decline...

leonard is rank too high

[Mr Feeny]

Where is Dirk?

[Gougou]

If it was 1999-2009 Kobe should be 1st.

I can see why Kobe is 3rd, he falls off after 2013.

Why Blade is 2nd team is more curious than Kobe 3rd team tbh.

[kentatm]

If Kobe is on it than Melo and Aldridge on it over Dirk is straight awful.
