it isnt all about the stats...all im sayin is pippen wit out jordan made it to the playoffs AT LEAST the first round. Kobe and the lakers lost 8 straight it doesnt even look like they gonna make it. Pippen could get to the rim anytime he wanted to whats your point? Jus cuz they triple team u doesnt mean anything...Pippen is better than kobe tho...hes smarter, plays team ball, better skills (in his prime). Kobe's good tho no doubt, but he isnt better than jordan or pippenProphet G said:You just said Pippen is better then Kobe. That proves your ignorance already for basketball and your hate for Kobe. Pippen was a great defensive player and in my opinion during his run with MJ and Chicago was like top 5 best players in the league. No doubt about that. But check yourself fool, Pippen aint betta then Kobe. Your comparing stats, how dumb can u get. Stats also depends on team members. Everyone had to guard MJ, what u think Pippen was doing. Everyone is triple teaming Kobe and he dont have a Pippen on his team. Kobe can get to the rim ANYTIME he wants. He's got one of the nicest shots in the NBA. He's got the fade away, he's got the upps and he plays D. Theres no one thas gon stop Kobe in the NBA. Pippen knows how to play the game, but SKILL wise, he is not better then Kobe. Thas why he was hating on Kobe when LA whooped Portland to advance to championship. Bitches always cry. Thas a trip homie. Now I dont like him for what he did with Shaq and the LA team. But I got mad RESPECT for his game cuz hands down he got game.
Because we're smart enough to know and realize that Kobe isnt half the man that jordan was on the court. Kobe is just a wanna be. Besides kobe played himself when he was greedy and got rid of shaq...now everybody's startin to see how shady he really is just like jay zTito said:I just realized that Kobe is hated by a lot of people that live in Chicago. Why is that? You got the creator of this thread who is an open Kobe hater. Jay Mariotti from the Chicago Sun Times is always blasting Kobe on Around The Horn. Even, rappers Common Sense, Kanye West and Twista have lines aimed at Kobe.
Is it that they feel threatend with all the Kobe/MJ comparisons?
GhettoStar said:dont mean shit without wins, if he trully the new jordan he can make them garbage players better, I mean shit who other then pipen from the bulls sqaud were big time/hall of famers (other then maybe rodman)?
Kobe learning what TMAC, VINSANITY,KG, and LBJ (soon) will learn you cant do it without help (decent help as in another star)
how hizzle? said:What did LJ do wrong??? I never heard him whine about anything except for the coach... Besides, he has Jeff McInnis, Z, Drew Gooden. AAAANNNNDDDD his team sucked last year....it's not like he USED to be in a great team...unlike T-Mac Carter and Garnett(who still is)
hakeem olajuwon...1994 or 1995 i think it was...the rockets won two championships, and hakeem didn't have drexler for the first oneGhettoStar said:I didnt say he did anything wrong, smartie, the argument was that a person cant win a title by themselves, which LBJ will soon learn son.
