    on the other hand, the last couple years threads that should be posts are popping up daily ...and many are not new topics..Around the NBA is where half these should go....good threads get buried on the front page by threads that are actually posts....not topics that bring something new to the board

    People forget how well he played for Washington. It was astonishing.

    Kobe’s injuries seemed to really slow him down before he even finished. Jordan didn’t finish that way with the Bulls, I think he finished exhausted after 3 straight championships and some of those eastern conference battles.
    I’m just not sure Kobe’s got anything left, he might..

    People also forget that he missed 22 games, WAS went 37-45 and missed the playoffs.

    People also forget that he was jacking up nearly 23 shots per game and had, by far, the worst TS% of his career. He also didn't have to share the ball with LeBron James. He was basically a high volume chucker on a crappy team. The only other scoring threat on that WAS team was a very young Rip Hamilton.

    Tony Campbell averaged 23.2 ppg on 3.5 fewer shot attempts per game and a much higher TS% for a crappy MIN team (and he did it for a full 82 games). Was that astonishing, too? Somebody has to score on a shitty team.

    So yeah, I hope Kobe comes out of retirement and steals shots and cap space from more deserving players. I'd be all for that. Kobe isn't Michael and even Micheal couldn't lead his team anywhere but into the lottery at 38 and 39.

    Not cool to talk about Kobe Bryant coming on someone's back.

    Unless you're trolling the Lakers board.

    I hear ya. It just seems to be getting worse. Front page used to be so clean and squared away. Must be my OCD. Can you imagine how messed up this place would be if everybody did what this nut job does?

    How about a link? Until you have one, you have is us debating Laker bullshit.

    If he provides no link, there is no news. Lock this bullshit thread.

    Shaq was kind of bullshiting on TMZ. http://www.tmz.com/2018/07/30/shaq-kobe-bryant-lebron-comeback

    Much ado about nothing. If Kobe actually were to come back, Lebron would renege on going to LA as fast as he could.

    Hey, take it easy. Lighten up a bit. Members should be able to make a thread whenever something pops into their mind. You aren't the Thread Police son.
