Kobe proved he will never be like jordan

As a bulls fan living in sacramento, I have now had to root for the kings by default. But when i saw kobe bryant elbow mike bibby lastnight, I lost all respect for the man. It was as blatent as they come, And it makes be hate the lakers even more.

As much as i want to start the nba conspiracy thoery, i wont go that far. But when the bulls start winning again and i have to go through what kings fans have gone through. i think ill just keep watching baseball

I don't like nba soap opera's and it seems to be getting worse every year. I know the kings have got a few breaks this series.but none have affected the final score. game 6 was a shame. such a great game until the 4th quarter

That Zazou, he sleeps all day Then down to Select and Le Collisee Sips his drinks, orders more Says what he thinks and it's a crazy war

Kobe should have been called for a foul but it was strictly accidental.

You think Shaq fouling out with 3:36 left in the 4th quarter and having to sit for considerable time in the 2nd quarter didn't affect the final score in game 5?

Kobe should have definately been hit with a foul and if you were watching the same clip I seen then yes it was on purpose. His arm did not go up and over Bibby's head it went up and then straight into the bridge of his nose.

Shaq lowers his shoulder every single time he babks a man down in the paint. Last time I checked, when a player lowers the shoulder and barges into someone and they go down its an offensive foul. How many times a year does he get hit with those? Not near enough in my book.

the elbow wasn't on purpose...he was just trying to get by bibby, but bibby had his arm around his waist.

Don't bother explaining a damn thing to these idiots. They already know it was accidental. Next time tell Bibby to save the hugs for after the game. If this yahoo is a Bulls fan then he knows all about preferential treatment er MJ! Remember him? He was great for the pounding a shoulder into a guys chest to get spacing followed by a nasty fade away. I bet you cheered then didn't you ya hypocrite?!!

Kobe rides roller coasters. I saw it in a magazine

Yeah, or one-upsmanship. Light for finesse and signaling, electricity for bulk

In 1997, Jordan punched Steve Kerr during practice because he felt that Kerr was getting away with moving screens. Jackson kicked Jordan out of practice, and MJ meekly left a message on Kerr's answering machine saying, 'I'm so sorry.'

A blackboard and VCR! What a vandal! I heard he 'accidently' dropped a plate at the pregame spread that night too.

I have it on good word he once kicked a cat too.

Has Jordan ever done anything comparable DURING LIVE ACTION, numbnut?

Perhaps the 'shove' of Bryon Russell just before hitting the game winning shot a few years back is the only comparable action.

I didn't check on whether it was true or not, but he did say that Jordan headbutted a ref. Again, I don't know if it is true or if he pulled it out of his ass, but I'd say going at a ref is a lot worse than another player.

He very much did so in early 1991/92 at the Delta Center at the end of a 126-121 2OT loss to Utah when a ref called Jordan for an offensive foul as he was trying to tie the game. Jordan was ejected and he threw a VCR against a blackboard in the locker room. (BTW, Jordan himself discussed this incident on his 50 Greatest Athletes show that ESPN put together). I was watching the game live.

The actual headbutt looked identical to what Rodman did in New Jersey in 95/96 (i.e. intentional). Jordan was able to avoid all the bad press Rodman received.

Jordan -also- threw the ball with a two-hand chest pass directly in Greg Anthony's face in a Knick/Bull playoff game in 1993 at Chicago Stadium after Anthony fouled him hard going to the rim. No ejection whatsoever for Jordan.

Thanks for the sig.
