Kobe is just trying to channel his inner Colorado down in Brazil

Welp

Kobe Bryant has interest in playing in the 2016 Olympics and hasn't been ruled out for the team by Jerry Colangelo.

true american hero 

P.J. Carlesimo had a ? for the 12th man on the team last night -- Either Dwight or a Stretch 4 (K.Love). If Kobe plays you can scratch that all together....

And nobody has more energy than Corey Brewer. I hate sticking dudes like that.

Don't much care for being guarded by guys like that either. Not because they lock you up, but just because they're annoying. Always up on you even when you're not involved in the play. Like the basketball equivalent of having a fly buzzing around you that won't go away.

EL OH EL.

LeBron cost them a title with all those bricks he was putting up. He turned out to be the Warriors' best asset.

who else was going to score for them? Did you see what happened when Lebron was out of the game during the finals?

Corey Brewer isn't getting guarded or guarding anyone because if he thinks a shot is going up he is taking off for the other end of the floor....

In all fairness to them its pretty hard to sit around the entire game and watch a dude dribble the ball until there is 4 seconds left on the clock then be expected to be completely active when he goes out of the game.

What will always stick to me is he was on the verge of losing 4-1 to a team with an injured CP3 (who missed the first 2 games) and the only reason he didn't was because the team sat him out for the last 15 or so game minutes of an elimination game. Crazy how different his playoff performance would have been viewed if it weren't for Brewer, Josh Smith, and the Clippers choking

I mean, like I said, he had a few off games against LAC, but overall he was good

In that series what will stick out to me more was the Clippers choking, not Harden. That, and of course, "context"

 

[Lovetohate3000]

i dont know bout that 10 plus turnovers in the warriors  close out game is what sticks out to me most about harden last year in the playoffs. thats what most people will remember as well. harden still the same playoff harden to me. you can't play that bad in a close out game. he  cost them that game  and set an nba record for turnovers. thats embarrassing .

Not arguing with you. Whole different topic. I'm saying if they end up making that run without him in game 5 but the Clippers still win...everyone's talking about how weak he is and he can never be a number one option blah blah blah. Instead, the team plays the best quarter of their entire playoffs without him and gave him the oppotunity to change all that. That's why it's so dumb to judge players like that

Legacy talk is so dumb. The only reason he advanced to the WCF is because he was benched in an elimination game. But somehow that would be better than someone balling out and not advancing.

Kinda how it's somehow worse to lose a finals series than to lose in the CF because at least you'll still be undefeated in the finals.

is that pic altered or something? 

No, AD grew 10 inches between his senior year in HS and freshman year at UK. Well known.

Not exactly. If he was like Doc, he'd be gassing someone else up.
