View Full Version : Kobe > everyone (except...) Glenn 10-17-2007, 07:51 AM This was a topic on ESPN Radio this morning. What players in the NBA should not be traded for Kobe? My list: LeBron Duncan Dwight Howard maybe Wade MoTown 10-17-2007, 08:13 AM Rodney Stucky Cross 10-17-2007, 09:31 AM Melo?Bosh?Amare? Melo is a less athletic version of kobe. Also a less defensive and worse passer than kobe. I'd do Melo for kobe actually. Bosh and Amare both have help problems to an extent. They got so much youth in them and I guess they haven't really reached their prime yet. Fool 10-17-2007, 09:36 AM This is Kobe's shot. This is Kobe's shot. This one's his, that one's his, this is Kobe's shot. ... His team is so wack that Kobe only passes to guys who pass it back. Glenn 10-17-2007, 10:29 AM MoTown is on fire. Zekyl 10-17-2007, 11:32 AM Not Wade, Kobe is a whole lot better. He can do everything Wade can and then some. Wade just has youth on him. Fool 10-17-2007, 11:35 AM And bitch-madeness.

I thought there was a bigger age difference between the two. Wade is 25 and Kobe is 29, not a huge deal. Timone 10-17-2007, 02:41 PM I certainly wouldn't trade anyone who doesn't take dumbass shots in the playoffs. Zekyl 10-17-2007, 04:19 PM Upon futher examination, I'd give up Wade for Kobe. I thought there was a bigger age difference between the two. Wade is 25 and Kobe is 29, not a huge deal. Its more about milage than age, but I'd still take Kobe. He's got at LEAST 3-4 more good years in him before he strarts to taper off, and even then he'll still be pretty damn good for a few years. darkobetterthanmelo 10-17-2007, 05:23 PM I might argue the mileage on Kobe may equal the mileage on Dwyane "flop 7 times get up 8." Wade takes an "alleged" beating around the rim. b-diddy 10-18-2007, 10:31 PM wade has the whole good teammate perception going, whereas kobe has the opposite. i think kobe proved this summer that he can be a good teammate. so i predict my first statement changes 180 degrees this summer (yup, people are going to get sick of wade, is my guess). the whole, who wouldnt you trade for him game is kinda stupid, imo. kobe will be the best player in the nba this year, whoever he plays for. book that. Laxation 10-19-2007, 02:59 AM Do you rekon Wade will keep the teammate perception going this season though? His team is fucking horrible... Id put the over/under for games that Shaq actually plays at about 40, and after him... its a d-league team, except the players are 40 instead of 20. I don't know that there is any option for Wade except to be a massive ball-hog... Maybe have to flop down 73 times instead of 7 every game. | |
