It's all about Coral Reef baby!!! Go Barracudas!!!

kobesosimi:
You are truly bogus.
I guess Jordan was photocopying Dr. J when he took off from the freethrow line? Or Kobe goes into each game thinking in his head, oh what can I do today to copy Michael Jordan, oh maybe, just maybe great players play naturally.

Jordan merely copied the "rock the cradle", nothing much. Both took very acrobatic shots. I mean, Dwight Howard was copying the "kiss the rim" dunk from Steve Francis, does that make him much of bonafied copycat? Oh, but it has gotten ridiculous w/ Kobe. He used to force his wife to stay home w/ him & watch videos of Jordan. . .He even tried to tan himself, so he could look like Jordan!!! I mean, Kobe could might as well call Jordan master, LOL. No excuses.

kobesosimi:
I'd post the crying in a new thread, but I didn't feel compelled to, does that answer your question, besides, I thought you might want to know that your favorite player needed a wheel barrow to carry him off the court.

What is wrong w/ the Heat protecting their investment?

kobesosimi:
I mean you really do a good job of not putting down Kobe while promoting your player.

I guess you can say calling Kobe the second best wing in the NBA & the most complete guard is putting him down.

kobesosimi:
Oh, you also said that people who watch games don't need professionals to make decisions for them, didn't you, so I guess you weren't watching the game when you claimed that "professionala (team doctors) told wade to jump into the wheelbarrow, oops I mean airplane, oh I'm sorry I meant wheel chair.

You're not making any sense, keep trying.

kobesosimi:
What else did you say, Wade's wingspan prevents him from playing lockdown defense, I guess a younger kobe had a really long wingspan when he was playing lockdown defense on the players he guarded, again learn a thing or two, then respond.

Never said that, again puting words in my mouth. I said there are other great defenders on the Heat w/ these gifts to perform more effectively. But, you said Wade defense is pathetic, which I find comical.

kobesosimi:
By the way, why does someone who claims to watch the games, post resoundingly that the lakers are a better defensive team without Kobe. While citing some statistical formulas compiled by these same "professionals" that he doesn't need to "make his decisions for him"

Because the stats are FACTS. There is no way to twist it. When these same professionals give their opinion on who is the best player in the league. . . .that is exactly what it is THEIR OPINION. Tex Winter & Grant Hill said that Wade is the best in the league, but I don't look for them to answer my questions.

kobesosimi:
come on troll, like I stated earlier, keep posting, and I'll continue to shed some light on your troubled posts.

If anything, you've done a poor job at it.

You should take time to read my posts before you make another comment, esp. on what I said about Kobe on #44 & the bottom of #53. I'm not saying Wade is undoubtedly the best player the league. I'm saying you can make a arguement for him. Many people find winning the ship as a lead dog to be very impressive, even non-Heat fans. I think it's that compiled w/ a bunch of other things, like the influence he has on his team (Prime Shaq & Duncan was known for that) his relentess attacking w/ a very good mid-range jumper & high b-ball IQ. I do agree he has to alter his game as he ages & develop a sweet outside shot, which players normally improve in.

Making futile posts about Wade crying reveals nothing about his game, and your age.

BUMP THIS BABY

kobesosimi:
Again, I ask you and your limited capacity for understanding,

Look whos talking. . .

kobesosimi:
What has adultery (which gazillion amount of professional athletes commit) got to do with a man(well i thought he was a man) crying off a court in a wheel chair?

. . .and what does that (bold print) have to do w/ who is the better player, hypocrite? (Notice I started the Kobe rant after your pathetic attempt to humor the members) I've asked you this question for the "gazillionth" time now.

kobesosimi:
hey, michael jordan commited adultery, got exposed, is he a dump man too?

. . .at least Jordan didn't have every major endorsement company dropping him like a bad habit & didn't wimp during a case that never went to trial, LOL. . .And we all know Kobe loves to imitate Jordan's game & mannerisms, hence the adultery, doing a very poor job at it. . .

kobesosimi:
seriously, learn to elaborate your points in a concise manner.

Hmmm, Reminds me of someone. . . .

Your basic rap lyrics^^^^^^

Rap lyrics are typical.  Typical of the disease that the rap genre spreads.  Garbage.  Garbage.  Garbage.  Improper lazy English (ebonics), violent and hateful lyrics, degradation of women, many times racism, and an overall negative message.

Not funny whatsoever. The guy suffered an injury for heaven sakes. Maybe an 'ole ref joke would've been more appropriate. But since you want to play that game. . .

KOME is the only NBA player who got played by some floozy skank who most guys with lesser income got laid for free just days before and after. Kate Faber is like a 7 on the scale, and your hero got extorted out of court and had to buy love back from his wife. . .

Since KoMe can be a dumb human being on and off the court, he's perfect hero for you because you are capable of relating to him and his dumb actions might actually make you feel better about yourself. His wife's IQ is no better than Kevin Federline and just another music video chick who are a dime a dozen in Cali.

KoMe is not a real man. Just a poser, loner, and rat, so many of his diehard RIDERS can relate to that or laugh at it for therapy. Minus fame, and you got a trailer trash marriage like Britney & Kevin.

Seriously, how can I respond to this?

LOL?

I'm sorry, but that's about all I've got.

Bo Jackson anyone?

https://www.speakingofsports.com/speakers/images/JacksonB.jpg

- Bo Jackson, the best of the 2 sport modern day athletes.

- Ran a 4.12 40-yard dash in 1986 combine. MLB All-Star Game MVP 1989. Also selected to the NFL pro bowl.

- What other guy with his speed could hit a 475 ft home run?

- Won Heisman Trophy.

- Was strong enough to pop his own hip back into place after it came out of the socket.

- Only American football player to have 2 runs of 90 yards or more ever, despite being a backup & only playing four years in the NFL.

- Was still able to be a very-good baseball player with a fake hip.

- Before he went to college he was offered a $250,000 contract by a professional baseball team.

- Ran a 100 yard dash in high school in 10.39, while weighing 200 pounds.

BUMP THIS BABY We are talking based on overall athletic ability. Don't say someone b/c he/she dominated his/her sport most effectively. A case could me made Jim Brown. . . .

https://www.nndb.com/people/890/000023821/jimbrown03.jpg

- Arguably the greatest American football player ever.

- Greatest lacrosse player ever (w/o question).

- Started on Syracuse basketball team (scored 15/game sophomore, 2nd highest on team).

- Decided to try the American decathalon on a kind of whim.  Finished 5th in the country.

sisimose:
Thiefofheart

maybe you can try discussing why you think my opinion is wrong, instead of taking an attitude that your opinion must reign supreme. You gave yours , i give mine, you want to discuss, i am open to that, just be more articulate. By the way i know the meaning of the word
sorry i didnt impress you this time around,, i'll sure try again, just let me know how

To be honest, I highly doubt if she's not troll herself. If she is a troll indeed, it would bring me some tears of joy.

kobesosimi:
Kobe took up Arenas late in the game, yet you blame him for Arenas scoring 60 points? you are definitely a troll.

Yeah, b/c the minute Arenas was his job, he got lit up like the fireworks on the fourth of July.

kobesosimi:
Of course you'd say it's just one video, when there are numerous videos out there, like I said, watch the game, I won't be bothered wasting my time providing more to you.

And you watch the games? . . .claiming that Wade's defense is "pathetic"?

kobesosimi:
Kobe averaging 9 freethrows is another proof that he is so much more advanced than DaPain Fade, do you realize how much fouls kobe draws on opposing defenders on his jump shots?

You mean the pumpfakes that gets the defenders up in midair, the maneuver Wade anticipates as well?

kobesosimi:
The ones he gets in the paint these days, he literally has to get knocked to the ground for the refs to blow the whistle, while Wade will get a foul shot if you breathe on him mistakenly.

Kobe get knocked to the ground? You're probably mistaking him for LeBron.

kobesosimi:
Are you implying that the Lakers are a better team without Kobe, slap yourself.

Facts are facts, son. The Lakers are a better defensive team w/o Kobe. So no need to slap myself.

kobesosimi:
Aww I'm sorry, are you hurt that your "thoughts" don't count? Keep swimming in stats while the professionals make their picks. Yeah, that's something that Wade can only dream of,

And you accuse me of not watching the games. . .when you look for the professionals to answer your questions for you. . .

kobesosimi:
something that greats are made of. Ask DaPain Wayne, he'll tell you that kobe still emits that ability.

Ability to lock down defenders? Those days are gone Jr., Snap out of it, and back to reality.

kobesosimi:
Yawn.

Past you bedtime?

Look kid, I think Kobe is a more complete player, insofar as he is more versatile.

However, I think that the things that Wade does well, he does extremely well and he takes full advantage of them. He is a great slasher and has a very good mid-range game to support it. That is probably why he shoots the better percentage. He also gets more "and ones" as a result and that matters. His points per shot are extremely good (and Kobe's are also very good, but not quite as good) and he needs fewer shots to be effective.  He more naturally is a passer. 

Kobe can be a great defender, but he rarely displays it anymore.

When I put it all together,  I have Wade as the best two guard right now, with Kobe 2nd.  I had them in the same order last year, even with Kobe's amazing scoring. I'm not being a homer/hater.

- But the fact you take satisfaction of Wade being injured is amazing.

- Wade has a shoulder dislocation which is very severe. He will require surgery now or in the postseason. A dislocation is like the worst sprain possible and. . . .it stays out of place. Imagine a terrible ankle sprain and it stays rolled all the way over until the doctors put it in place. I can't believe you ripped Wade for reacting to the unbelievable pain of a severely dislocated shoulder.

LadyT:
Sharetroll are you the same person you have just spoken so much sense.

Sociology class.

There is much room in society for the defined feminist anymore.  Those that oppose equal rights are in the severe minority.

That leaves the crazy feminists that want women to be in control, even though they claim are going for equal rights.  It basically entails not having a sense of humor as far as I can tell.

The thing is that most women and men don't WANT totally equal rights.  A lot of things that are done in society (holding doors for women, men buying dinner for women) are NOT something that is considered to be equality in society.  Women like that kind of stuff, so they lose some of the perks with total equality, otherwise it's not equality.

Equality is an impossible goal.

We can do our best to help "curb" the gap as much as humanely possible. However, true progress cannot be achieved unless we accept that men and women are vastly different in some areas.

And no it is not Ronaldihno, Tiger or any big name star.

Matt White, a journeyman pitcher trying to make the Los Angeles Dodgers, could become baseball's first billionaire player.

It has nothing to do with his arm. He owns a rock quarry in western Massachusetts.

White, who has appeared in seven big league games in nine professional seasons, paid $50,000 three years ago to buy 50 acres of land from an elderly aunt who needed the money to pay for a nursing home.

While clearing out a couple acres to build a home, he discovered stoneledges in the ground, prompting him to have the property surveyed.

A geologist estimated there were 24 million tons of the stone on his land. The stone is being sold for upward of $100 per ton, meaning there's well over $2 billion worth of material used for sidewalks, patios and the like.

kobesosimi:
Like that defense he played on kobe when his coach quickly yanked him and put a "slow footed" Gary Payton on Kobe? The coach definitely knew that Payton's defense is much better than DaPain Wade's.

We're not talking about executing a war plan. . .Payton is done,  His reflexes are shot. . .His speed is gone. . .His jump shot is flat. . . .Antoine Walker is even worse. Both often get nights off against the other team's best player. Don't try to pretend otherwise. Kobe took up Arenas late in the game and got smoked in the 4th and OT.  So what.  Its one stupid game when a guy gets hot.  I've also seen him get smoked by poor offensive players like Bowen last season b/c he didn't bother guarding him and Bowen kept hitting the shot.

kobesosimi:
Kobe's are excusable, he gnaws at the refs because he gets hacked and receives no foul calls in his favor, I've showed you evidence of this treatment in this same thread, try again.

1 video of Kobe getting hacked doesn't mean jack. I know a couple of instances were Wade was being hacked, and didn't get the foul call. You even attempt to make a case for your boy though he averages over 9 free-throw attempts per game: ONE LESS foul per game.

kobesosimi:
Comparing Jordanesque performances now are we? I couldn't even begin to compile for you, a list of Kobe's most sensational performances, please try again.

You see, I can go on and on just trying to explain these simple concepts to you but you'd never get it so I'll end this here. keep basking in filth. FYI, Kobe, and Jason Kidd, not DaPain Wade, both made the all defensive first team last year.
Yes, you're right, I'm doing a very good job at exposing your trolling tendencies.
This once again proves my point. Your head is so sucked into stats that common sense becomes irrational to you.  I think Steve Kerr has a better shooting percentage than Kobe, does that make his offense spectacular?

You still haven't proven anything. But the facts are the  numbers that I posted.  Argue those.  And for last year, they are very similar.  In fact, what is interesting, last year the Lakers were actually better defensively when Kobe was NOT on the floor.  Here is the link.

http://www.82games.com/0506/05LAL7D.HTM

That is why so many, including myself, thought his selection on the all defensive team was a complete joke last year.

Kobe has the ability to be a lock down defender (or at least he certainly did prior to his latest knee surgery), but he rarely exhibits that ability anymore.

Thanks for playing.

Iyke-D:
sharetroll,

Please get over it. The WORLD don't give a damn about American football - it may mean the
world to you but it is an American game, played 99% of the time in America. Yes, very poor
kids play the real football on "dirt" - I wonder how you find that to be amusing and yet fail
to recognize that you just admitted why Football (soccer) is the world's game and the other
is a local sport and has little or no appeal outside its borders.

The NBA by a very large margin has more followers outside the US because basketball has
been successfully exported and is an accepted global sport. Accessibility usually leads to
acceptability. Any idea as to why Beckam, a footballer past his prime got offered a deal that
is unprecedented in the US professional sporting history? If you care to pull your head out
of the sands that may tell you something about the intent of the owners or promoters of the
MLS. For you, the NFL, ESPN, Fox Sports, Fantasy "Football" etc. means the world to you, for
the rest of the world, they mean nothing - [b]FIFA [/b]is what they know and care about. Hate to
break the news to you.

Read what I wrote in my very first post about Soccer homers caring about the NFL.

You can sign the ownage documents later.

shsonline:
Actually, I meant the other guy who was saying american football is dumb and reminds him of fat americans and cheeseburgers.

You don't have to talk to him at all.  He gets a pass.  He is too young to know any better.

. . .is me.

sharetroll = G.O.A.T

shsonline:
^^It sounds more like you have an issue more with americans or american culture than american football

I do?

Christino:
What baffles me is how topics like this slowpoke's get to the home page for everyone to assess his stupidity. It's written all over his posts.

. . .yet you have nothing intelligent to add to the conversation. Hypocrite.

Christino:
Sometimes I think he's a bot who's been programmed and hardwired on a ROM. Stupid people do not learn and i'm just expecting his next senseless thread.

You forgot to introduce yourself before your comment personally I think you should have gone with "ChiChi Chuku coming to you straight from a village town in [insert poorest village in southeast Nigeria here]"

Christino:
Cheese is better than butter! Goat head Isi Ewu, Nkwobi!

Tissue?

Christino:
By the way the blockhead who shares toilet rolls (sharetroll) plays American football with his balls, and so finds it unique. He says soccer requires little creativity. Little wonder he belongs to people who do things with their mouth, sit in Row Z and clap for the goalkeeper who lets in the most goals.

Do you get a lot of respect for posting on a Nairaland forum? If there's anything that screams "street cred", it's talking behind the screen on the internet. LOL

Loser.

Christino:
It's a shame he's probably Nigerian.

It's a shame they approved your green-card. . . .

Christino:
Sharetroll, I gat only one message for you:

Your I.Q. is as low as your CGPA!

Ahh, Is that right? You're probably just saying it for shock value but comments like that are just ignorant.

WesleyanA:
american football is for americans.

FOOTBALL is for the world

football is just a lot more sophisticated and recognized all over the globe. Even in France where filet mignon originates. American football, on the other hand, reminds me of cheeseburgers, fat dumb players, dirt e.t.c How dare you compare the two!!

Is this all that you have left to hold onto? Self-esteem a little low lately? Need a tissue?

In your opinions, who do you think was the greatest athlete of all time? Pele? Roger Federer? Michael Jordan? Mine vote goes to Jim Thorpe.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9d/Jim_Thorpe_olympic.png

The guy was a stud. Was an all-around player: a star in all 3 major American sports.

- He played American football (it was really Rubgy-like in those days), baseball, and got two gold medals in the Olympics.

- In college he played RB, DB, K, and P.

- In a few track meets in college the guy was his colleges whole track & field team.

- He broke his college's high jump record in his first try.

- He set a record in the olympics at the decathlon, when he never officially did a decathlon before.

- His olympic records stood for decades.

- He's in the college and pro football hall of fames.

- Not to mention the U.S. Olympic and the Track and Field hall of fames

- Was coached by the famous Pop Warner.

- He played 6 years of Major League Baseball, and a few more in the minors.

- Thorpe founded professional football.

- Played 12 seasons of pro football.

- He ran, recieved, passed, and played DB in the pros. . . .while coaching.

- He even played a little basketball, with a traveling team.

- Was named the best athlete of the first half of the 20th century.

- And the athlete of the century by ABC

debosky:
or a game where the ball is kicked like 5% of the time yet its called 'foot' ball??

pussies who can't get hit and have to wear padding to protect themselves, give me the real football or rugby any day

Most of you Soccer homers that do not play and criticize it either cannot play worth a lick, or are physically unable to do such. The rest will criticize what they haven't played or do not understand. That being said, I do not see Football being an international sport. . .at least no time soon.

Iyke-D:
Its not even proper to compare the two sports because one is mainly a national sport while
the other is a global sport. The overall emotional effect that football (soccer) has on countries
or on people during the world cup tournaments just can not be equaled by another game that
is played by just one country.

Yes, because even in the poorest 3rd world country in the world, you can go outside and have a soccer game by kicking something around in the dirt. For football, you actually need something called a spiraled football, a pigskin that throws well. . .marked surfaces. . .things that cost money

Iyke-D:
However, a good match with the right teams on the right day or
even a single magical piece of foot work with the ball can almost make you go insane with
pure blissful joy.

Soccer? ? ?

A bunch of guys head-butting balls and scoring once every 2 hours (if they're lucky)?

WOW. . . .what an amazing game. . . . .

Christino:
I stand by my word, it's murder if by tomorrow morning your so-called American Footie votes don't overtake that of soccer (World Football).

Then you can leave this thread peacefully and go open another Attention Seeking Thread.

You have no problem it'll be on the main page before noon. Nincompoop!

Is this all that you have left to hold onto? Something is eating at you from the inside out? . . . .If you suddenly croaked, we would all miss your intellectual posts.
