ang criticism naman kay Kobe, he wouldn't have won those championships without Shaq (2000, 2001, 2002)
and Pau Gasol (2009, 2010)
and often accused as a ballhog who would often go away from the offense to pad his stats
Ahh the old debate of Kobe riding Shaq's coattails. Then when Kobe won two without the big guy, they say it was because he had Pau.
This argument and any such kind is moot because of the word "team"
Using the same argument, can we not say that Shaq could not have won in LA without Kobe? Or that Pau wasn't a winner without Kobe?
The ballhog thing. Meh. So he shoots a lot. He's his own man. Drives coaches crazy with his approach. You say "fcuk Kobe! All he does is shoot!"
Then he flashes the five rings on you and says "talk to the rings" Hard to argue with that, considering he just made folks admit that "ballhogs" can exactly be real winners afterall.
You say "Screw you, Kobe! There is no 'I' in T-E-A-M" Then he fires back, there is in W-I-N. And also in R-I-N-G-S.
Then you say "Fcuk you, Battousai!" Kobe just made your "team" reasoning crap.
Then I reply "Coz he's had success at success at success"
Then Kanye asks "What the fcuk is he talking about?"
Kobe says "You're welcome"
