So did Kobe Bryant...

Uhhh...yeah. So basing it on SL play, you'd think a guy who isn't even in the league anymore was as good as Bryant. That's why it tells us nothing. Scrubs have dominated summer league since...forever. It's really tough for me to make a point when you've already done it for me.

5-17 is much better than if he went 5-5 and finished with 10 pts in the same amount of minutes. 5-17 just means he is not afraid to miss and shows potential that he can be a 20+ppg guy in the reg season. It would seem to just be an offnight...we shall wait and see.

I don't want to shock anyone. I'm just saying this because it is truly amazing. I know it's summer league and all BUT Herbert Hill went 5-5 today. He's probably the next Micheal Jordan even though he's a Center. Just something to think about guys.

If anything, Kobe is the closest to Jordan the league has to MJ and deserves the comparison IMO.

LeBron hasn't accomplished anything to even have his name mentioned in the same breath as Jordan or Kobe.

Big difference.

Why does almost every single one of your posts mention Kobe? I'm thinking you're a troll.

KD finished 9-23 tonight, started 1-10, but finished 8-13.

Did a good job defending Marco, and really took over in the 3rd quarter, driving to the hoop on basically every position.

You can tell, well at least i can, that in a few years with some added weight, he is going to be a dominant player.

But he went 5-17 from the field in his first game. Doesn't that mean he's a bust?

Dude is gonna be a killer. I swear to god. His moves already are more pure than LeBron's skill set.
