No, Kobe isn't Lebron's Dad but you guys get the analogy.

sorry to diverge...

anakin is the chosen one. he is the one that brings balance to the force. now Luke was the last hope (well not really if you consider leia), but remember it was anakin who killed the emperor, so in fact he does fulfill the prophecy...

funny analogy anyway, riot

bryant seems more like the prodigal son...

Well actually he's right (but he's still just a noob and a rude one at that).

After Rudy T left Hamblin put the triangle back in and for some reason Kobe went public and said he loved it. Keep in mind it wasn't triangle all 48 mins like it was under Jax but they ran a lot of triangle plays in the latter part of the season.

I think after Rudy left and the team started going in the toilet the Lakers had already decided they wanted Phil back.

I think you replied in the wrong thread but I see what you mean lol... I think Kobe might've been making an attempt at being a leader by saying he loved the triangle, a poor attempt but an attempt none the less.

here's mi choice of best one on one players in their positions

C-Shaq(no duh)
F-kevin garnett
G-Kobe



You are right my friend! you can't compared players abilities and skills when they play different positions.

Kobe is the best 1 on 1 guard in the league, though he had a subpar season this year. He still ended up with good numbers but not as good as many would have expected out of him specially when there's a guy trailing him and his name is Lebron James.

But seriously these are the best players at each positions for the last 3 years including this one.

C: Shaq
PF: T Duncan
SF: K Garnett
SG: Kobe
PG: Kidd

Enough said.

I think Kobe is defintely a great player.Hes already have 3 rings,hes the best guard today.Someone may say hes selfish and greedy as well as the main reason of his awful team.But I hope he could achieve something one day,I really want to have the honour of seeing another Michael Jordan to do something special.

Anakin always remained the chosen one... since it was he who destroyed the sith in episode 6.... hence the title of the movie "Return of the jedi"..

You must've known that someone will bring this one up: doesn't he have reaaaaally small hands? I just watched two of the Jordan's vintage games (1991 Finals, G2 vs Lakers and one from the Phoenix series) and I couldn't resist noticing those freakishly big hands. Some things are just psychically impossible to do for Bryant.
