Kobe System
LMAO!!! I know exactly what was going through Chris Paul’s head when Pau tried to give him the condescending white boy pat.

(Drake’s greatest line thus far. Doesn’t make up for all that simpin he does though)
Reasons why this deal is better than the one for Howard:
-Getting CP3 (arguably the best PG in the league) takes the pressure off of Kobe and allows him to play the post, come off of screens and create without the ball allowing him to preserve his energy throughout the season.
-CP3 adds 3-4 more productive years to Kobe’s career by default
-Paul also has that rare ability to make those around him better (something Kobe was only able to accomplish with one other player…Shaq).
-Back issues aside Okafor is durable, a good rebounder, shot blocker, and defender
-Ariza already knows how to play with Kobe, had his best years in LA and plays the passing lane as well as anyone in the league. Ariza, Kobe, and Paul on the perimeter will create an insane amount of turnovers.
-The new collective bargaining agreement involves off season drug testing (possibly not for marijuana but nobody is sure yet). But in case you forgot, Lamar Odom is 1 violation from being permanently banned from the NBA for smoking dope.
- We get rid of Steve Blake
- We get rid of Steve Blake
-Steve Blake is gone for good, never to return
Getting Howard would likely require us to eat Turkoglu’s ridiculous contract and we’d still have glaring hole at PG (not to mention that Orlando wants Gasol AND Bynum). The reason getting an upgrade at PG is more important than getting one at Center is simple: J.J. fucking Barrea and Jason Terry ate the Lakers alive in the playoffs last season with dribble penetration. Old man Fisher is only good for 15-20 min a game now and Steve Blake is a D league talent at his absolute best.
Paul > Howard but getting both would be a dream come true and Lebron would NEVER win a ring.
Kobe went DEEP into the hood tonight dropped 45 and the game winner over James Harden @ the Drew League.
No knee brace.
I’ve never seen Kobe display that kind of passion after hitting a big shot. Looking at it made me want to start yelling too. The refs weren’t calling shit.
There can only be one reason people hate him so much. It’s because he’s so fucking great that some people just can’t take it and their only reaction is to hate.
Haven’t seen this expression this season. There hasn’t been a need for Kobe destroyer mode yet. The schedule has been a complete cake walk. Game @ Denver tonight will be the first quality matchup of the season.
Watching Theo Ratliff limp up and down the court this season is KILLING me worse than Matt Cassel’s ducktail last week in Oakland.
Although nobody has seen Ruben “The Kobe Stopper” Patterson in years, he continues to make an ass of himself on a nightly basis in front of millions all thanks to one, Kobe Bryant.
Where are you Ruben?
