Good for him. It doesn't change the fact that he's benefited from the rule changes just like every other perimeter player has. It should...
You don't think last year's Lakers could have won 43 games without Kobe?
Thanks for posting tinman. It's interesting to hear that from a former opponent of Mad Max.
I didn't say that Woj is the only one who has written negatively about Lebron. I said he's the only one (that I can recall, at least) who has...
The bottom line is that the "manufactured stars" argument is a stupid one to make unless you want to say it is true of every perimeter player that...
Did he win championships as the best player on his team before the rule changes? No. Was he the #1 scoring option of a team before the rule...
The difference between the Lebron and Tiger situations is that many women stepped forward in the Tiger situation. Almost all of this stuff about...
Robin Hood re-imaginations should have ended with this one: [IMG]
You have as much proof that Kobe would have won championships anyway as I have that Lebron would have still become the best player in the league...

Why would someone give them a 2nd round or low first round pick to take on an expiring contract?
I would expect the Lakers to win close to 50 games in the tougher western conference without their best player. I would expect the Celtics to...
I'm getting really sick of you posting about how guys can't grow up to be functioning men when they're raised by single mothers (you were making...
Yao was definitely brought up to be a basketball player and probably didn't get to live a normal life, but was he really given the same type of...
Yes, "these days." It's not like Magic Johnson was responsible for getting his coach fired almost thirty years ago.
That's the same thing that went through my mind when I read the thread title. :) Of course he does. He has the right to ask for $10 if he...
