@SmooshChn, I hope you're safe in china, considering this outbreak of Corona virus.

Continue to stay safe boss

I've been back to motherland since the 1st of this year. I'm safe. Thanks man. Hope you're safe too?

I think it's fair to say Khash Money is currently showing us why the Bucks decided to fork out such a huge amount for His services. He really is earning His wages this season. All He has to do now is maintain this Level of performance come the playoffs.



I was really looking to Kobe and Lebron conducting a joint interview together a few years from now when Bron would have hung up His sneakers. The banter between those two would have been Epic.....Daaaang!

Victor Oladipo returns tonight

Lol the Wizards are the worst defense in NBA history. Can't even put too much stock in that 50 piece

It's not just about the points He put up, It's also How efficiently He put up those points. The Split for that game was something like 60/60/100. Absolutely ridiculous. Also His split for this season alone are currently 50/43/90. I have been a huge critic of His in the past and If He shrinks in the Playoffs again, I'll be back on His case but abeg let's get credit to whom it's due.

"The media always tried to put us against Kobe but what they don't know was we were doing our best to be respected by Kobe, and be on his level" - Lebron to D. Wade.

Edrice Femi "Bam" Adebayo of the Miami Heat voted to participate in the 2020 NBA All-Star game

I am in the process of drafting a strongly worded letter to Adam Silver about the just released All Star reserves. This is totally unacceptable!

JBBBB!!!!!!

I just need G. Hayward to remain healthy. He has been terrific since he returned!

Roland17:


JBBBB!!!!!!

There is no way the Celtics are getting 3 guys in the all-star games with the 5th best record in the league.

How is Bradley Beal not an All Star? Trae and Beal are quite similar..Great Offense, shitty defence. Not saying Beal is better but Trae made it as a starter and the difference between the two isn't that Big. Surely Beal should have made it as a reserve No? Then again looking at the list I'm left wondering which player you'd replace Him with.

It can't be just about the gross numbers of wins and losses. How many games has Trae Young also won? I think the coaches are sending a horrible message to players, that if you want to be loyal and go through the tough times in your organization, you're not going to be an All-Star in those tough times.

I finally summoned the willpower to write about Kobe.

And again lespeech tried to make the tribute all about him. Who is he to promise a chip? In the night they should have won, he was missing in action.

man please, don't start. We take God beg you. People mourn differently. Let the man grieve how he can. Na beg we beg

Doc Rivers too said the best way to honour Kobe was to the win the chip, so if it will drive him to win the chip, good luck to him. It may even turn those inconsistent players in their team into different animals.� That's alright. Every team in the Nba is allowed to do so, although it will be laughable for some. They are in a position to win a chip so that statement is acceptable. Giannis can come out and say the same, so can Kawhi. To everyone are their sources of inspiration at any given moment in time. If the Lakers win the chip, it will momentous and moreso, it will be tied to the memory of Kobe. Wouldn't you want that for the man you claim to love?

I don't even want to imagine how Vanessa and the kids would be feeling if me with no real ties is feeling like this 5 days later

i will be laughing, working, joking, doing something and I will randomly remember that Kobe is no more. It happens like every 30 minutes bro. I have been distraught.

You go on Wikipedia and see the Bio. "Kobe was an" and then the kids that died with him. Knowing his daughter was also there makes it so difficult to stomach

I have been avoiding ESPN and US Sports TV as much as i can (very difficult in Super Bowl week). Turned on the TV to watch Madrid derby and they were mourning Kobe there as well. I just put off the TV.

Ironically I have moved to acceptance stage now and I watch the old clips of his life and times and feel somewhat better

“Calling out the Devil is one thing, facing him is another thing!”

“You reach, I teach!”

“Look around you! What do you see when you look around you, look!”

Like @A40 said, we tend to underestimate how much work these guys put in to become champions and consistent superstars.

Lou Williams really nails it here. Behind all the fire and intensity this was who Kobe was and became.
