Kobe isn't really all that great huh? Put something decent around him, then maybe we can talk. This year Lakers should probably be doing more with the absence of Malone and Shaq because Payton is there. Last year when Shaq was hurt and Kobe had to lead by himself was with a lineup of Samaki Walker, Robert Horry, Fox, and Fisher. Yeah, I'm sure a lot of other superstar players in this league could have been successful with that lineup too. Kobe hasn't proven himself to be the player everyone thinks he is? Quit while your ahead, it's not worth my time trying to prove you why Kobe is a great player. - Purple and gold I see you're point, but I still think you're full of sh*t.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Clyde_Drexler22:</div><div class="quote_post"> I see you're point, but I still think you're full of sh*t.</div> Care to explain why? I mean, YOU're the one who thinks that Kobe isn't a great player, and that he hasn't stepped up. 9 out of 10 NBA fans will disagree with you. "Furthermore I dont think the Colangelos even know what they're doing." Actually, they're proven to be pretty prudent owners, knowing when they're done for the season and clearing enormous amounts of cap space to sign a good free agent, if not Kobe, and save them from paying the luxury tax. "All Kobe would do for the Suns would be to fill seats and score a lot of points." :mrgreen: haha like Purple n Gold said, quit while you're ahead. You know how many owners would kill for a player who could score a lot of points and fill seats? Also, he can be a winner as long as he has the right teammates.

<strike>Hey, Kobe fans, If I throw a stick, would you leave?</strike> <font color="Blue">Drop the baiting. You have yet to provide any factual evidence to prove your claim that Kobe is not a great player. Instead you provide wise ass comments. Not cool. - dexter</font>
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Clyde_Drexler22:</div><div class="quote_post">I think the Suns getting Kobe would be an awful move on the part of the Colangelos. Kobe hasn't proven himself to be the player everyone thinks he is by showing he cannot step up to the plate so to speak without a big man like Shaq at his side. He has never had to play without such an awesome big man and therefore I don't think he's really that great. All Kobe would do for the Suns would be to fill seats and score a lot of points. I think the Colangelos should stick to who they already have and try to go for the worst record in the league to insure them one of the top three spots in the lottery. Furthermore I dont think the Colangelos even know what they're doing.</div> I'm not even going to argue with you. Straight up, your an idiot.
