At this rate? Yes. As long as he continues to perform at this rate for about four or five more years. He's really only been truly poppin' since 13'-14'.
have you ever seen OKB take the opportunity to not conform with whatever is being posted on NT
I want him to elaborate because I almost have those same sentiments about it (minus the whole "encapsulation of everything I hate about the modern sports fan." part. I don't think it was that bad

Longevity is one thing but he already has as far as their peaks. AI was great but Steph is on a different level.

They were put in an incredibly difficult situation, the world was watching. untold amounts of social/political pressure (not mention the pressure of trying to win a playoff series) and they made a compromise. They chose to play and voice their opinion in a simple unified way.
But rather than you know having empathy for the position they were put in, rather understanding the absurdity of the situation they were put, people just chose to mock them as if they would have done something differently. Like unless they refused to play, and a courted the legal, and social wrath of the dominant class they were some how less than. when the every adult black person in america should understand you make compromises everyday to survive.
So many sports fans harbor a not so secret resentment for the athletes they obsess over. It's pretty pathetic, most would wilt if put in the same situation.
If John Carlos and Tommie Smith did this today they would be mocked.

This is just the way my brain works.
NT would be boring if everyone thought the same way.
I don't see how you could compare a hunger strike to tossing jackets at center court
I'll take it
yeh you are schleep. no one mocked them for standing up against racism.
Your tears are delicious!Man, I'm not a Kobe fan and think this is 100% right, but seeing this post from you makes me sad. Like a kid who stops believing in Santa.
[emoji]128546[/emoji][emoji]128546[/emoji] it hurts me even more typing it. But the Kobe I knew died in 2013. It pains me to watch this guy play.
me too man.
i think it hurts me worse knowing he's a chill private type dude. not a shaq personality. When kobe retires, we may not ever see him again. Some candid shots at a kids soccer game, a family disneyland outing. Dude doesn't evn go to award shows. He stays off TMZ. We'll see Vanessa way more.
