Kobe Stiffs experiment...


Not here to criticize how the Nuggets played in the second half, nor debate the merits of whether or not DEN can beat LAL in a seven-game series...

 

I just want to do a little experiment. Simply give a +1 if you loved every second of Kobe being the spoiled, whiny little BITCH that he is when every Nuggets fan's new favorite player Arron Afflalo absolutely ate his lunch yesterday. He legitimately could have had like 5 or 6 techs last night. Attention refs, If you're gonna give him one in the first quarter, you have to give him one in the second, one in the third and two more in the fourth quarter for the exact same "showing up the officials" bullshit.

 I'd like to get it up to 7 or 8 thousand +1s, so tell your friends!

Write respectfully of your SB Nation community and yourself.

would have been better had the refs not called Afflalo for those b2b ticky tack fouls

If a puppy died for each time a L*kers' fan did something stupid

Then there wouldn’t be any puppies left in the world.

If a bomb exploded for each time a L*kers’ fan trolled on any non-Lakers’ site, then the world would be a wasteland.

+1 bajillion

If Kobe were most other players, he’d T out of most games. I’ve never seen anyone get away with as much towards the officials, inlcuding MJ, as Kobe gets away with.

And with the 32nd pick in the 2009 NHL draft, the Red Wings select: Someone other than Ryan O'Reilly. LOL@Detoilet.

Duncan and LBJ

Has LaBrat even recieved a T in his career? These guys are heavily guarded by the SS, I mean refs.

by Joelsopinion on Mar 1, 2010 3:23 PM MST up reply actions  

But neither of them is so damn menacing when they whine. Kobe looks like he’s ready to take a swing at the refs while he’s bitching at them. I can’t believe he doesn’t get more T’s.

Kobe uses the whiny puppy look a lot

Which doesn’t really work when you are a hated rapist. But David Stern loves his @$$, so the refs don’t call techs on him

simple question

How many times have you seen Kobe Bryant foul out of a game this season?

How many times have you seen Carmelo Anthony foul out of a game this season?

I rest my case.

by BeefySwats on Mar 1, 2010 3:18 PM MST reply actions  

Weak Argument

Different players… different positions…

Kobe is a wing player and typically wing players don’t foul as much as forwards. Forwards are defending the basket a lot more where there is more opportunity to foul.

+1 for me

+6 for my siblings
+3 for my nephews
+4 for my nieces
+1 for my dog that sat by me during the woeful Nugget years
+2 for those two hobos I saw sleeping under the Denver Post sports section that had an article about the Nuggets

by Joelsopinion on Mar 1, 2010 3:25 PM MST reply actions  

and of those foul outs, how many were BS offensive foul calls?

I guess Carmelo’s rep from earlier in his career is catching up to him. Dwyane Wade would have gone to the FT line 51 or 52 times yesterday if Artest had been playing him like that…

[PN] What players did you try to emulate as a kid?

[AA] Byron Scott was definitely one of my inspirations growing up. I loved how he played the game and he’s why I wore #4 at UCLA. Then Kobe Bryant came along and I instantly fell in love with his game, so I tried to model a lot of my game after his.

Might be a good thing he liked Kobe so much

Probably watched a ton of his games, so he’s super-familiar with his moves and tendencies!

What I would like to see is Kobe continuing to play despite a plethora of worsening injuries…then his selfishness and insistence on taking every shot ends up knocking LA down to the #4 spot, where they lose to #5 OKC in a sweep.

The STIFF LIST (as of 7/26 by Nate)

STIFF #1: COLORADO ROCKIES
The Rox have lost eight of their last 10, including six in a row. During the six-game losing streak Colorado has been outscored 33-13 ... and they might soon be the reason by buddy Rory has a massive heart-attack. But there are still 63 games to go and an upcoming eight-game homestand is hopefully just what the team, and Rory, needs to turn things around.

STIFF #2: MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES/DAVID KAHN
Replacing a 24 year-old point guard with a 29 year-old point guard is just a sound NBA move ... uh? Kahn handed Ramon Sessions a 4-year $16 million contract last offseason and just gave the same deal to Luke Ridnour this offseason. In order to make room for Ridnour, Kahn shipped Sessions and young big man Ryan Hollins off to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Delonte West (who is still facing weapons-possession charges). Maybe Ricky Rubio will get to the T-Wolves before Ridnour's contract expires, but don't count on it.

STIFF #3: TRACY MCGRADY
McGrady has been shopping his services this offseason and after getting nibbles from the Lakers, Clippers, and most recently the Bulls ... T-Mac is still without an employer. The 31 year-old guard, with a rich injury history, apparently is not ready to accept a reduced role. Will McGrady's stubborness land him on a lottery team where he'll try to prove he can still be "the man" or will he accept being a role player and wind up in Chicago gunning for that elusive title?

STIFF #4: DANNY AINGE
The Celtics did lose defensive ace Tony Allen to the Memphis Grizzlies, but re-signing Marquis Daniels to a one-year $2.5 million deal is a little crazy. Daniels should be thanking agent Mark Bartelstein ... maybe the rapper can sing his agent a song. (Daniels is in the yellow shirt in the video)   
  

STIFF #5: NUGGETS SLEEPING ON SIZE
The Nuggets decided to bring back Anthony Carter on a one-year $1.3 million deal. Do the Nuggets really need a third point guard heading into training camp over another big body? Check out some names still on the free-agent market: Louis Amundson (yes he'll require more money), Fabricio Oberto, Kwame Brown, Anthony Tolliver, DJ Mbenga, Nathan Jawai, Josh Boone, Kyrylo Fesenko, and Joey Graham. Denver still has the bi-annual exception to spend ... so maybe there is still hope of grabbing somebody.
