kobes almost retiring, whats one thing your glad never happened in his career

[kennethgriffin]

That's why anything he did from 2004-present shouldn't count. He should be in prison.

lol mike tyson got only 3 years in jail for a much worse conviction



kobe woulda been out in 2 years at most


so he missed the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons


if anything this would have helped the lakers even more than getting pau in 2008

a) their salary books are wiped

b) multiple MAX free agents after 2 years of tanking

c) lakers end up with andrew bogut, danny granger, chris paul or deron williams from the 2005 nba draft

d) lakers end up with lamarcus aldridge, rajon rondo, paul millsap in the 2006 nba draft

e) lakers sign ray allen in the 2005 free agent period

f) lakers sign ben wallace in the 2006 free agent period



kobe comes back from jail


PG - Chris Paul
SG - Ray Allen
SF - Kobe Bryant

Im glad he was never the best player in the league during any season.

[outbreak]

I'm glad he wasn't a repeat sexual offender.

[RRR3]

I'm glad he respects greatness in his fellow players

Glad he never got ring #6.

[WayOfWade]

I'm glad he never let injuries get in the way of him playing a couple more years. The NBA will never be the same once he's gone, neither will this message board.

[dazzer87]

glad he never took a paycut..........imagine only trying to live on 300 plus millions........

[kennethgriffin]

Glad he never got ring #6.

he would have if STERN didnt bring down the veto hammer

paul
kobe
artest
whoever
howard

+ phil

= title

[JT123]

I'm glad he never won a playoff series without an elite big.

But Kobe already had Payton+Malone+Shaq+Fox and failed to win?
And later, Dwight+Gasol+Artest+Nash and failed to win?

Maybe Chris Paul wouldn't get to touch the ball and instead gets turned into a spot up shooter/statue playing next to Kobe?

I can't quite see what's happening in your icon? What's going on there with Kobe?

Weren't you saying the Lakers could compete for the Playoffs the past two years and next year?

[Mr Feeny]

Wait. Let me get this right. Is he.......being..............CARRIED?

and he won back to back with farmar, vukachic, odom, gasol, luke




lol@ you putting 40 year old nash on the same level as prime chris paul

or counting 40 year old payton and 40 year old malone and 350 pound post trial spiteful shaq with a toe/foot problem

or thinking howard sucks forever or leaves after the first year if chris paul is there

or thinking kobe still gets an achilles injury covering PG responsibilites for an injured nash when has chris paul
