    wrong again. TMac showed more passion and respect for the game with his actions. He fought hard to the end and when it was over he conducted himself like a champion giving the other team props and saving faace for his teammates. kobe sat on his ass and when it was over he set a bad example by wining and crying like a baby. tmac showed much more passion for the game but also showed class and dignity which kobe didnt

    Kobe stated spurs were the better team and give them credit..mcgrady talked alot of trash...when up 3-1..is that classy? nope....i sure as hell wouldn't be laughing on the bench when my team is about to get knocked out of the playoffs.

    Tmac: *shrugs* "hey guys we played the best we could and they just beat us. its not the end of the world. we just gotta work hard and do better next year"

    oh yea...kobe set the better example.. [​IMG] NOT!!!

    Kobe said we could make excuses..but spurs were the better team

    mcgrady-i can't wait to get to the 2nd roud

    prince can't get me..who is he?

    those are just a couple of things that coem to mind..stop hating on kobe...if you hate on him don't go off saying mcgrady is a classer person..when clearly they act te same when it comes to losing..and both are cocky.

    LOL not at all...mcgrady was hardly classy in what he says..he talked trash about our players..prince and already saying the series was over.There are no facts to back up that mcgrady is a classer guy than kobe when it comes to losing..none at all.Mcgrady even talks bad about his team-mates (or he used to not long ago) and going along the lines of

    "i'm the only star on this team..

    " my team-mates need to do something to help me out e.t.c"

    but there is no point going over it again...but saying you were right in this arguement is rather funny...

    Did you listen to what Kobe was saying? He wasn't even whining. You have a blurred perspective on things. Kobe gave the Spurs all the credit they deserved and he said that next year starts RIGHT NOW. As in he isn't going to be goofing off in the offseason, it's all about business and trying to get to where they have been the past three years. How's that not setting a good example?

    where is SCBrian to defend Kobe on this one?

    Kobe obviously cried because he was disappointed to see the championship run end. After the game he said he hates the feeling of losing and off season starts right now. So watch out next year. And if Kobe was a bitch and baby then he would have been out of the league along time ago after his 3 straight airballs against the Jazz. But he learned he can't do it all by himself and learned to play a team game and now he's arguably the best player in the league.

    it depends what your definition of BEST is. he's more skilled than shaq and a better all-around player. shaq is the most dominating player.

    meh. shaq didn't cry because he didnt try. so what if he was hurting. he could have used his dominant self and knocked the spurs on their asses. i think he's happy with his 3 rings.

    on showing class:
    Kobe thought that the Lakers had a chance to sweep the Spurs. VERY classy, huh?

    what's class have to do with that statement? they've swept them before and kobe thinks confidently and feels invincible on the court. most players do, that's why they can compete professionally.

    well the team is built around the big fella, let's see a team built around kobe and watch him lead the team to a lot of W's.
