Granted the Lakers may be even worse off without Kobe.

Yes he did. That guy what great on the boards. Not the reason the Cavs won though. Toronto's ineptness at going to the basket did that. 16 seconds left down by one, lets run a play that has TJ Ford going to the basket taking an ill advised off balance shot. Great call coach.

You are an amazing player Dwayne. I love watching you shoot free throws. What you know about Dirk's leadership skills is non existent. You don't have a clue. Your ability to evaluate leadership skills....well you obviously have an overinflated value of your own. Did you take business classes at Marquette?

And for record, taking one word off Wade's EXACT response through his Si interview, doesn't mean you should omit quotes around your last sentence cuz it was word-for-word exactly what Wade said.
Get off Wade's jock, you're riding him like fuckin' seabiscuit. Dwayne Wade is a punk. Jump off the band-wagon already. This years championship team is coming from the West.

PG - Steve Nash (purest PG)
SG - T-MAC/Kobe (virtually same stats)
SF - Matrix
PF - KG
C - Yao Ming (he was tearing it up before getting injured)
As for best player, it's going to be hard to tell since it's hard to compare positions. If I had to say right now...I'd say T-MAC or KG....

On top of being a punk off the court, the way he plays on the court is just plain ugly sometimes. As much as I dislike him, I gotta admit, he's got talent. But it's absolutely unreal the calls that guy gets. Don't get me wrong, he's good, but if you look at him the wrong way, they send him to the line. The thing about it is, he runs into the defender 70% of the time off of a screen, and he doesn't even look to actually make the shot, cuz he knows he's getting those calls. Obviously ESPN is on his jock saying "he can't be stopped" 'cause the refs make sure of it.
What's even more retarded, is that you can't give me neg rep points 'back' b/c it seems like you ALREADY DID. if you cant' handle "neg rep points", dont' dish 'em. I'm just returning the favor.
And for record, taking one word off Wade's EXACT response through his Si interview, doesn't mean you should omit quotes around your last sentence cuz it was word-for-word exactly what Wade said.

btw, I dont give a shit about neg rep so you can suck it.

Second leading scorer in the league (29.3 ppg behind C. Anthony 30.3) ...Kobe ... fourth in the league with 28.7. The Wizards would not be sitting on top of the Southeast region without Agent Zero...
