Kobe has accomplished almost everything possible in the NBA.
I was thinking one reachable goal for him could be “owning the house”, getting the highest score in every arena they play in, start with 81 at the Staples Arena….maybe Dime complie a list, not the worst article ever written??
Thanks

@
“Fall-away jumpers? Are you serious Chicagorilla? If a player has the skills and athleticism, then a fall-away jumper is the best way to create a clean jump shot from the back-to-the-basket position. Kobe has the ability to do that and it works (VC uses this as well). Why is this being used against him as some obvious attempt to be like MJ?”

WTF are you talking about? I never said anything bad about shooting fadeaways. I was saying Kobe shoots a fadeaway just the same as Jordan shot fadeaways and made it popular.

Now I see that you are just following me to debate me on whatever point i make about ANY subject. It was cute at first, but now i’m starting to get worried. find yourself some business.

First off..Kobe slapped him on the ass. If that’s Joakim Noah or Taj Gibson or basically anyone who’s not a superstar laying his hand on a ref, no question he gets a technical, right? – - If lebron did that you DIME writers would show hose stupid videos all over the home page showing how “loveable,” and “carefree” Lebron is. If Kobe does it everyones hating, id rather smack a refs ass then dance like a retard.

And i’m 17 years old, I never watched MJ play thats why I think Kobe’s the GOAT. It pisses me off when everybody blindlly claims MJ’s the best, how he was such an icon. Well MJ’s a douche, he fucked half of Chicago, and an arrogant dick http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTb-xOb5LTw

And Kobe is the GOAT of MY era. Yes DIME i do not think that Lebron is the best (Shocking isn’t it?)

@43 AMENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN. I WISH WE HAD LEAGUE PASS WHEN MIKE WAS AROUND. WE HAVE IT NOW BUT THERE ARE MORE SCRUBS THAN BRILLO. YOU GET TO REWIND AND WATCH IN SLOW MOTION HOW BAD THEY REALLY ARE. I would have loved to see A.I./Mike/Mark Price/GP & Kemp/White Chocolate nightly. League Pass & DVR are some of the greatest inventions to grace this earth. WOOOOSAHHHHHHHHHHHH.
HASHITACHI. LMAO.

as hard as he tries, Kobe will never be MJ. Not even close.

Chicagorilla is just mad. His arguments are inane and reek of homerism.

TRUTH: Kobe is NOT greater than MJ.

That said, these arguments against Kobe are ludicrous. Are we comparing career figures now to show that Kobe is less than other players when Kobe clearly entered the league under different circumstances?

You guys need to stop with this “he’s copying MJ” whine. First, it’s old. Second, there’s no point. Third, you don’t fake basketball skills, clutch play, competitive fire, and a warrior’s heart. A person either has those abilities or they don’t.

Fall-away jumpers? Are you serious Chicagorilla? If a player has the skills and athleticism, then a fall-away jumper is the best way to create a clean jump shot from the back-to-the-basket position.

Yeah, so maybe I got carried away a little… lol. Just trying to enjoy greatness while its still there. Always felt like I took MJ for granted when he was still playing. Should have watched every damn game he played…
