I agree 100%. For the record, let me state AGAIN, I DO think kobe is a Great Guard. I'd also like to congratulate him on winning the MVP this year, since this appears to be the case this year. My whole argument was he's NOT what people make him out to be when they start in with the whole mania of "He's the Greatest Ever" or "He's the most talented or skilled ever" argument, because it's not SUBSTANTIATED by ANYTHING Factual. I also don't agree that he's BETTER than some of the people his fans keep trying to say he is, because when the FACTS are introduced, the crickets commence & the same old argument or charges are brought forward by his fans: "You're a hater..b*tch, f*g, wh*re, etc.." LOL!! It's almost as if they forget they've chosen to engage in a debate & they've violated Rule #1 when it comes to debating: NEVER USE YOUR OPINIONS AS FACT, IF U CAN'T VALIDATE 'EM.. Somehow,they confuse "Questioning" kobe's body of work, with "Criticizing" it. They automatically take the position of you must be "Against" him, if U don't agree with their beliefs regarding his game & somehow judging him by what he's CONSISTENTLY done as player is "Wrong". If U leave it to them to tell it, us fans of the GAME itself, should just accept their "Opinions" as proof enough & ignore the FACTS, despite the FACT that they stand a STARK 180 degrees opposite of their fanboy opinions.. This is what U tend to wind up dealing with when U engage kobe fans.. “chris paul deserves MVP award”

No argument from me. I agree 100%. For the record, let me state AGAIN, I DO think kobe is a Great Guard. I’d also like to congratulate him on winning the MVP this year, since this appears to be the case this year.

My whole argument was he’s NOT what people make him out to be when they start in with the whole mania of “He’s the Greatest Ever” or “He’s the most talented or skilled ever” argument, because it’s not SUBSTANTIATED by ANYTHING Factual.

I also don’t agree that he’s BETTER than some of the people his fans keep trying to say he is, because when the FACTS are introduced, the crickets commence & the same old argument or charges are brought forward by his fans: “You’re a hater..b*tch, f*g, wh*re, etc..” LOL!!
