    i believe Kobe to be the best all around player in the Nba! He can score every which way imaginable on the court. He can score on anybody in the NBA, and the guy plays hard core defense, rebounds, and he can pass too. To me it is incredible how there are still haters out there saying that kobe is too selfshish, he is a punk, etc.... i can't belive that, look at the stats and how far he-himself brought the lakers this year. He should have been MVP!!! What do u fellow laker fans think?

    Charles Barkley said it best, "He's the best player in the league."

    It's insulting to Kobe that this questions has been asked. This guy is beyond greatness.

    don't you read? 22 writers didn't include kobe in their ballot... it's not coz he's not good but it's just the hate...
    kobe could easily have averaged 8 assists per game if his team mates could finish just like nash's teammates could... that's the only reason nash, lebron, billups have a lot of assists its coz their team mates can finish/score once they get the pass...

    That's way over simplyfying it, in actuallity players will sometimes average more assists on bad teams then good one's. the reason is they feel they have to set up all the plays. jordan averaged more assists on his bad teams then good one's because he had to do alot more.

    <font color=""Black"">Let's not start the Jordan and Bryant comparison, for someone will go and revive an old thread. But as far as MVP, Kobe did get screwed. Most of the writers hate him. The only two writers that voted for Kobe were probably Ric Bucher and Kenny Smith. I am a freaking Spurs fan, and I still dont see how you can hate a guy this much.</font>

    I think you are the first Spurs fan I've ever respected.

    As for Kobe, He's the best in the league right now. He's unstoppable, if Mitch could bring in the right pieces, we could be contenders.

    We cant waste kobe's prime with this group if we bring in a nother prime player(KG) then we'll have a shot at the title.

    I think alot of the hate just comes from plain jealousy, these haters are basing Kobe becuas of the desisions he made. If people were to base it on how well he plays he would win MVP. From a spurs fan POV i hate kobe becuase of what he can do against us but only for that reason, if he were on the spurs or any other haters team he would be loved.
