Damn. What could have been.
quote:i agree the talent level has gotten better but I am saying the physicality of driving the lane. I remember watching 90s ball where you would get laid out for driving and no whistle would come. Also, big men dominated and didn't give a **** to lay your ass out. But again, talent wise league wide has gotten better
Whether you put any stock into it or not, people have analyzed quality of play league-wide as time has gone on and it's actually become more talented/harder to play as time goes on, even past the hailed 80s/90s.

What is the record for most missed threes in a game? Kobe is at 9 tonight.

Record is 13. Kobe at 12.

This game is very Kobe-like. Me me me me me
Even to the point of setting another record for missed shots so he can have a nice stat in total points
quote:
He's the GOAT shut your mouths.
If you actually want to know what i think...Kobe doesn't sniff Jordan. Kobe is top 5. I can only tie him with Magic at best. He's better than Duncan, although due to duncan having an amazing coach and amazing cast and organization for his career, Duncan can and likely has the better career. But kobe is still better.
quote:It's the worst Lakers team of all time because Kobe refused to play for less than $25mm for the last five years, so they couldn't build a good team around him and premium free agents didn't want to ride around the drain on teams that couldn't possibly be good.
This is the worst Laker team of all-time
