and the movement to cast Melo as "Kobe" is disgusting

jabronis mad that Kobe won 2 sans Shaq, in an era where their chosen hero should have won at least one. with players that were good, but lesser than Shaq. The whole agenda of "Kobe can't win w/o Shaq" was that Shaq carried him and the Lakers. that was blown up when Kobe, Pau and the Misfits of Los Angeles won two titles.

so then the Kobe narrative was that he was "Square Button, Fuck The Others"

which might be true

but you can't use that argument against Melo. Melo is a good, possibly great player on a team that many seasons, is generally bad. he scores, but he isn't chucking.

now Basa stirring the pot years ago over "a more winning game of basketball" might have spurred this post, but if PG really would have played a more winning game of basketball instead of OD'ing on Green Death with the rest of his team we wouldn't have to have heard about the fuckin' 4 years of the Death Star in the NBA
