Kobe Settles For Rings Not Hype!

"I love to be in situation's like that, down a bunch of points and everyone expecting you to lose! I thrive of those situation's, that's what I live for"!

Kobe Bryant AKA: The Black Mamba

If you have read my first article you know my contention for NBA.com and their one sided and shoddy reporting on the MVP race. I am a huge fan of Basketball to me its the only sport worth watching. To watch a team be down double digits the entire game and then make a drive in the fourth to comeback and win. Wow!

I love the game and demand respect be given if you are going to report on it. I am not nice or respectful to anyone who dare write a report set out to dis and not praise. Take a break Mr. Hughes of NBA.com I will leave you alone for this article. I have acquired a new target and this morons name is Matt Taibbi a writer in Rollingstone magazine. The article Mr. Taibbi has written is entitled:

The New Kobe which can be found in Issue #1100 March 18th 2010 edition of Rollingstone on page 39. Which has Shaun White with no shirt on jumping in the air with his winter olympics gold medal...?

Ok Taibbi, At the start of the article I could tell right away you are not a Durant supporter your a Kobe Hater. I could also tell the article was written using reference materials or others opinions not something you have aquired yourself. Why because your ignorance and continuous degrading remarks about Kobe have failed to provide any proof to validate your claims. Taibbi you have the basketball intelligence of 6 month old baby who's mother puts him in a Boston Celtics onsie because she likes that particular shade of Green.

I am guessing Mr. Taibbi you have some affilitaion to OKC or Seattle who knows the Thunder may make the playoffs but will get swept by the Lakers if they ever get close enough to play them.

Now Mr. Taibbi let me show you what a true Basketball fan is and how they handle simple minded haters like you. Kevin Durant is an absolutely great player. Do I believe he is a superstar. Not yet, he has a few more years of solid play before I can honestly state he is worthy of super star status. To Kevin I say this. Keep with it and do not slack regardless of how pointless it seems some times.

Mr. Taibbi you consistently use degrading terms for Kobe in your article and even mention that Kobe has had to settle for the second best spot in the league. However, you still entitled your article the New Kobe. Not the new LeBron or the new Jordan. No you specifically chose Kobe. which tells me you are so frightened by Kobe you have to compare Durant to Kobe.  You state in your article that no one can defend Durant. This proves to me you Basketball IQ is smaller then what a microscope can see.

How about the November 22, 2009 101-85 Lakers victory over the Thunder in which Durant was held to 19 points while Kobe was able to score 26 including an amazing shot against Durant when Kobe shot the ball from behind the backboard and made it embarrassing Durant and his defense. All of this while he was playing with a a sprained ankle and an avulsion fracture in his finger.

How about chopping and slicing between Durant and Westbrook for an easy layup. How about Shannon Brown Dunking over Durant 2 times in a row. How about the simple fact the Lakers have swept OKC so far this year. 

Mr. Taibbi you are also comparing a forward to a guard. You listed Kobe is playing above the rim less and less because of his knees. You really need to sit and watch a game because most of his points come from the field where he rises up over players and knocks them down. Kobe is also the 4 time champion and will most likely win a fifth this year.

So before you go around writing things that are not true. You should investigate read and study the game and players before you write an irritatingly dumb column. In which you spend most of the time speaking out your butt because your mouth knows better. People like you Mr. Taibbi are the reasons there are dog training collars. Fortunately your the exception to the humanity rule when it comes to using them.

I would love nothing more than to rub some Preparation H on you and make you disappear. Unfortunately me and everyone else in the world will have to suffer through you and Rollingstone Magazines horrible, sloppy and terrible report writing on basketball.

Let me give you some advice. Next time you write an article show some respect to players who make this sport great. Keep your stupid ideas and interpretations to yourself report only on facts and not what you perceive as facts.

Like him or not Kobe does not have to listen to neanderthals like you Mr. Taibbi. He just settles for winning rings and staying the best player in the league. Don't believe me, go to you tube and search LeBron admits Kobe is better. Directly from his mouth LeBron admits its.

Open heartedly I believe Durant to be a fantastic player. He is, However, no where near Kobe Bryant caliber. He may remain a strong force or could fade into oblivion. For now I give him more kudos then LeBron and wish him and the Thunder the best of luck this year and for years to come.

To Mr. Taibbi I say only this. Your an idiot and I find it disgracefully you dare talk about a sport you know nothing about and which I love so much. You are another dirtbag who feels like he needs to take a shot at Kobe. Mr. Taibbi the icicle has formed and Kobe has broke it in half and urinated on the remains. Not bad for a 31 year old 14 year pro with more points, wins and records then any other player in the league right now.
