Kobe isnt built to coach the same way Jordan isnt. Ridiculously gifted players have problems coaching. They dont know how to coach based on talent and drive. End up pushing too much and ruining players. Plus they turn into haters like Big O and Dr J.

That's why I said private like Hakeem. He'd be fine there. Big O didn't hate much this morning on his interview lol

Im sure he loves all the attention Westbrooks chase has gotten him. He loves Westbrook because his success highlights how "ahead of the time" he was. The guy slandered Steph all season last year because of how differently he played, he probably felt it lessened his accomplishments. Guys a bitter old fart, all time great though.
 
Nice change of pace
For real. I hate players I considered legends like KAJ, Big O, Dr J (Has LBJ and like four other guys ahead of MJ) Chuck, and Tmac slander current players. Even fucking Shaq belittles every big man that looks good.
 
He was headed to Duke if he went to school. Lol at KG.

He did on first take. He's got a ton of ventures but he sounds different. When they start saying "if" it's basically a "when". Magic did leave the door open

kobe strikes me as the type of person who could excel in any field he wants to. there is truly nothing that man can't do

i almost feel like coaching is beneath him though tbh. he's been on the road his whole life, doubt he wants to be on more team busses and shit. it's about time a BLACK MAN became nba commish, don't see why it can't be him. he's the perfect basketball ambassador

He hates Steph for some reason. Even this morning he gave props to Harden too but wouldn't give them to Curry. He changed the conversation to being about him. Didn't shit on Steph though like normal

t-mac on the jump usually keeps it real imo. rarely watch that shitty show though

love shaq but he's the worst analyst on tv

Mac is the worst and that hurts to say.

He for sure could.

Silver will be a good commish
 
tim legler is a brutally underrated analyst. him, broussard and skip are the best in the business

One of my favorite players back in the day, now hes just a salty hater. Also he doesnt ever add any kind of insight.

Because Stephs style of play has made him and all guards before him (minus Isiah Thomas and Allen Iverson) look like fucking Bob Cousy and John Havalchik. Just old and outdated.
 

he's a breath of fresh air from guys like sharpe, max, cowherd and his manslave nick wright who say stupid ass things like "juice should be mvp every year" and actually mean it. one of the few guys who understands that his fkin job is to talk about sports and gets that it isn't all that serious

plus he's hilarious

Never. His wife actually would be better in studio. He was the only guard close to Kobe in their prime. Obligatory:

Yeah, that probably accurate. I think what you said earlier about him coming from a good family has validity too

Max used to be good. They ruined him with the First take crap
 
biggest reason a lot of the old players are so bitter is probably because their max contracts were like $80,000 and nowadays guys like mozcock get $64 million

i don't think he's bad on the show, but if it involves lebronze or any type of politics, he's unbearable

comes across as a smug prick though. rarely watch boxing but i saw the chocolatito fight when he lost his belt and max was asking the guy who won what it felt like since he used to eat out of trash cans lmfao

True. He's the goat rapist already.

Yeah for Curry its not just one thing, its a combination of things. They also think hes a gimmick and that current players just havent solved him yet.

Interesting tidbit, Larry Riley supposedly discovered Steph his freshman year at davidson and would have drafted him at #2 (He says he would have drafted him first overall but hes full of shit. They would have grabbed Blake). Just makes Ainges awful talent evaluation look even worse.
