@Wthmoni And

Can you answer..?

@patriot1776tex @Finishurbkfst23 Yeah because MVP is media driven award. Media create the fuckin narrative. It becomes the best player on the best team instead of the actual best player award.

@Finishurbkfst23 Shaq had 3x as many FMVP as Kobe in this decade, Duncan had 2x as many, 4 other people had as many. Duncan and Nash both had 2x as many MVPs as Kobe too in the 2000s 😂

The reason Kobe haters hate this poll is because it blows a huge hole in their narrative. Social media was in its infancy. This is one of the most accurate snapshots of how fans felt at the time. The only reason they hate it is because Kobe's on top.

@PaulHeadleyNBA Either you don’t know ball or this is rage bait.

I could make a compelling argument that Kobe was never the best player in the league in any season never mind for a decade straight. And nobody at the time thought he was, at least outside LA.

Truth. Kobe was one of the only players I circled on my calendar and started preparing for a few nights before we played. Getting my rest right, extra body work, extra film, watching every calorie I consumed. You needed to be at 100% to go against him because he was always going to bring 100%.

Embiid is lowkey nice for this. Went out of his way to say Hi to Jokić 👏🏽

Matt Bonner, who was on the Raptors when Kobe Bryant dropped 81 points on them, does not think Bam Adebayo’s 83-point game is as impressive as Kobe’s 81: “When someone has a game like that, you want to think they were on fire, or they were in the zone, and with Bam, he was 7-22 from 3. If someone was 7-22 from 3, I’m closing out, sure, I’m not like, ‘this guy’s a threat to break the 2nd-most points in a game.’” “It’s a fun story, but apples and oranges if you’re comparing it to Kobe.” “When I think of greatest performances in NBA history, that’s what I picture (Kobe 81), not someone who shot 7-22 from 3, under 50% from the floor, and 42 free throws.” (🎥: Sportsnet)

17 years ago today - Kobe Bryant got into an altercation with Ron Artest and then proceeded to straight fry the Rockets in the Clutch on way to 37 pts and a win

@Joey2KYT But was lakers fouling the raptors to preserve time?

Kobe hits 72 points score is 96-113 with 4 minutes left in the 4th. They should have taken him out right?

@Realarafi Just in:

@HeatCulture13 They were fouling the wizards to preserve time when they’re up by 26 points. Gtfoh tubby.,

Brian Windhorst on Kobe fans who are mad that Bam scored 83: “Bam has gold medals, been in a couple of finals. He’ll always have this. This will always be remembered. In 12-15 years people aren’t going to remember they fouled at the end of the game. Sour pusses will remember. How many Kobe fans in that arena are pissed off? How many of them would remember how many FTs Kobe shot when he scored 81? That whole 4th quarter was FTs!” (Via Hoop Collective Podcast)

This!!!!

This is the beauty of the WBC: A 29-year-old bearded electrician from Ostrava, Czechia who has played baseball his whole life in a country where very few play the sport helps Czechia qualify for its first-ever WBC, strikes out Shohei Ohtani on a pitch he says came out of his hand wrong, and becomes one of the faces of the Classic. Ondřej Satoria, who is retiring from the national team after this tournament, will leave Japan where he gets stopped for autographs and photos and receives standing ovations, and fly back to Ostrava where he’s a normal guy with a simple life. And while no one back home is stopping him in the streets for autographs, imagine the stories he’ll have for his 2-year-old son when he grows up. “The most important thing is that the baseball community from around the world now knows that Czechia plays baseball.” - @OndrejSatoria in @michaelsclair’s book “We Sacrifice Everything to Baseball” 🇨🇿

@OPQRajanay 💯

All these women posting about Bam breaking Kobe’s record on my Instagram have never watched a lick of basketball 😭 I’m livid. Yall probably have never known about the record until yall seen a man post about it. I hate it here 😭😭😭

@Chris_Broussard Embarrassing. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I LOVE that Bam (with the support of his teammates & coaches) is going for it! 81, 100, whatever!

Paul Pierce on Kobe: If Kobe retired in 2010 at 31, he'd still have more rings than LeBron and a better career that included much tougher Finals runs. All-time stats and longevity deserve respect, but they don't determine who had the biggest impact or who the better player was.
