He was a better Laker than Hibbert and Mozgov IMO. |
Don't set the standards too high. Seriously, though, Mihm was about an average backup quality center. If not for the injury, he probably would have played another ten years in the league. |
Agreed. He wasn't bad.

I don’t think so.
We all just came to the conclusion that Kobe>LeBron and we’re moving on

Hmm. Seems more like folks gave up on trying to prove that. The passion and interest seems to have died.
Gotta make sure we keep this going! Very important! |

Ehh..we were told it didn’t matter when Kobe passed MJ so can’t see how it somehow matters now 🤷♂️
But some people might get mad Lol. We’ll see

Right now at his current pace, it's projected to be 17 games away.
17 games is Houston Rockets.
18 games away...would be the CELTICS. Oh please do it then.

Game after that is Knicks. Which could be good too. We know much Lebron loves Madison Square Garden. |

That's a pretty hypocritical argument. By saying others said it wasn't important then so they can't say it is important now, you're ducking that it was very important to some then that don't want it to be now. Add to that it's going to take LBJ a lot less games to do it...

First one is suspended. Not sure the second one.
Ok but most of the time when people yell “Kobe!” when they shoot it, it is a brick. Hmmmmm.  |

That can be flipped and still be true, as well.

LeBron all day. #2 Greatest player of all time trailing only, MJ.
Will become the only player in NBA history to end up with the milestone of over 35k points, 10k assists, 10k rebounds.
Potentially has a chance to become the first and only player to win a championship, Finals MVP with three different team(Kawhi has a chance to set that record too)
Will likely finishes #1 all-time in playoffs points, assists, top 3 in rebounds..
The only thing left he needs to do to put the icing on the cake is winning it all this year. |

How did you react to it? I watched the game at home, with a few friends, and we all stood up when they stopped the game and clapped. It was an awesome moment. We know MJ was one of the reasons Kobe even came into the league when he did.
Probably do the same for LBJ when he passes Kobe although for some reason it felt like more of a milestone when Kobe did it |

Don’t forget taking down the 73-9 Warriors and leading all players in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks. No one has ever done that, in any playoff series, ever, let alone not in the finals against the winningest team of all time. |

I thought it was cool.
But I also remember arguing with LeBron fans saying it didn’t mean sh**.
So not gonna let those same types tell me it means something big now in another attempt to diminish Kobe.
It’s a great accomplishment, though

It’s cool. Everyone has their own opinions and preferences. At the end of his career, only MJ will have a clear cut advantage over him in terms of productivity, impact, etc.. |
