Kobe, Blazer fans, and Rasheed?!?

seriously though, the Jazz...did they just throw the game on purpose. You triple team Kobe knowing no one else will shoot. They played to lose and to make Kobe look good. If I was a Jazz fan I'd be fucking pissed.

Especially after they they beat the Lakers by 50 just a few weeks earlier. I can imagine that a few of them were popping off after that with their Lakers acquaintances. Now they will have this memory....forever.

I think the fact that they found out they had been eliminated from the play offs right before the game started had something to do with it. :grim:
 
Now that Kobe is retired he's no longer a Laker and we can sign him to a 10 day contract right?

Nah, they need to have some fucking pride and don't play like they want to go down in history like bitches. You know he's taking like 75% of the teams shots, just double team him. Triple team him. Yeah you'll get booed, big fucking deal, that whole team looks like a bunch of bitches. Break that team up they are done.

I sometimes enjoy reading the Spurs Forum because they are amazingly clueless about basketball in general and ridiculously ignorant (constant use of homophobic slurs). Anyway, they are actually having a serious discussion about whether they should bring Ginobili back or just talk Kobe out of retirement and have him come off the bench.

You have to split the blame between the coach and the players. If I was coach, I would have committed to the super douchey box and one defense. Fuck letting kobe take 50 shots. Everyone would laugh at the box and one, but it would have done the job. And yes, box and one is the defense equivalent of comic sans.
 
All this Kobe "end of an era" retirement hype reminds me of when Steven Gerrard retiring from Liverpool last year. In fact it's almost EXACTLY like it. Big time national press coverage and nostalgia back slapping among the accepted elite of the sport. But if you a fan of a rival, you just go, "meh."

And Gerrard wasn't even retiring, he went and signed a disastrous contract with the LA Galaxy.

So you know what this means.......

Why do we care about some Liverpool basketball player?

Just thinking about the future..... there's that Blazers/Pool demographic we have to reach out too. Somewhere in England is a future Scouse board member named WittySnookerBulldog.

I'm a Liverpool fan and all the Gerrard stuff got so annoying last season. Also the Liverpool game today was insane!

Didn't see it but I heard about it. I'm a HUGE Man City fan for years..... before the take over. Crazy to see both City and Pool in the semi's of Europe. I love Klopp. He's has a great humorous personality which for Germans is saying something. And I think you guys will make a run at the premier league title next year when he gets some new players in.
