It's such a shame that he couldn't hit that 6 ring mark. We all know how desperately he wants to be MJ
His whole career is him imitating him :pachah1: I'm going to miss all the Kobe Passing jokes tho.

He shouldve retired after his championship run in 2010 everything after that was disappointment:francis:
Ever since the mavs series these niggas never been the same:kobeok:


:what1:


This wasn't even that long ago, seriously are people forgetting how dominant he used to be 2-3 years ago. Look at this his top 10 plays from 2012-2013 season (2 and a half years ago). Half of them are posters or dunks on multiple people in traffic.lol And he was 34 :wow:



Kobe just got unlucky 3 times. He almost got Chris paul but Stern vetoed that shit cuz he owned the hornets/pelicans. Got dwight howard but dwight was a and got nash but he broke apart and retired. But kobe was good af in 2012-2013, 27 ppg 6 assists 46% shooting is up there with one of his most efficient and all round seasons in his career. Thats how good he was but got unlucky from not landing any good second star to play with him and then that injury from his shoulder n achilles just fucked up his game and career. HE probably could've still been hitting crazy jumpers n dunking this season if he stayed healthy.

Everybody knew he wasn't getting 6th ring after Lakers management brought abysmal roster and let go key players. Dafuq was they thinking signing injured Howard, old Nash, and not keeping Pau? It was a lost cause.

Thats season was just a let down. people thought they were going to cruise through the regular season with the Fantastic Five More like Fantastic Failures.

That season made me fucking lose all respect for Dwight. Freakin 6 foot 11 inch Cry baby. Kobe passed the ball for the first time in his career and dwight howard was bricking it all over the place at 40% Free throw shooting at the same getting bullied other bigs. :O27GWRK:

Bro 39% shooting from FT!! just taking a moment to grasp that.:uCkf6mf: Does he even have hands??

Kobe played straight phenomenal at age 34 , yet dwight howard with his weak timid ass couldn't even deliver. I never thought he would be a worse than bynum. At least he wasn't as bad as Kwame Brown.. lollollol

Thats season was huge gamble for the owner, he really wanted kobe to get that last 6th ring. Really a shame.

The coach D'antoni was a disgrace. Howard had a back injury during the Lakers season. It's the lakers management who's at fault since they didn't want to sign Phil Jackson.

It was more of a financial issue i think Phil was bargaining for huge sum and the Lakers had already exhausted their pay roll.

A huge fail on Lakers management.

My comment was more about the team then him but even then the last 2 years of injuries for him didn't help :damedamn:
Let's be honest the only thing we will remember about the lakers and kobe in the last 4 years is mavs series, them getting fucked over by stern, the hype Surrounding dwite and nash and them not living up to the hype, Dwight ing, nash looking extra trash,them thinking they can fix everything by trading for Jeremy lin who had 1/2 season of success in his entire life, add in constant kobe injuries recently:francis:
