    Let's hope he's not Jordan-esque when it comes to Kwame Brown. [​IMG]

    DistantReplay- so you rip Kobe for being compared to jordan. You rip him for not being a role model "role model- never"...yet you still rock the jersey...Nice one.

    i don't think nike is wrong in pushing kobe as a role model. he is a great athlete, with a great work ethic, and the way he just focuses himself on the court despite his personal problems is admirable. plus, isn't anyone innocent until proven guilty?

    no doubt kobe's a great role model. he works hard. he plays hard. he is dedicated to his work. next season he'll be great. he'll have his breakout year.

    ilive4ball - controversy!! if i can excite an irate denver native by rocking Kobe's jersey, and possibly get into a heated debate, i'm all for it!! plus it's good for my business.
