[@tpnotes]

Just awesome. I was never a Kobe fan but loved his game and had the highest respect for his zero bs approach to the game. Kobe's work ethic was second to none. I just never understand why people get stupid when comparing their favorite player, or their best home town player with another generational star. I remember here when we had Wade in his prime. Amazing talent, but he wasn't better than Kobe. Now LeBron has been 17 years in the league, maybe the best player in the last 10 and people have been talking shit about him from day one. If you are a basketball fan just enjoy the show. When this guys are gone or retired we miss them. Kobe, MJ, Shaq, Hakeem, Karim, Bird, Magic, Malone, etc.

[@ThatGuy-313]

the klaw lol it’s funny that you call the person low IQ. It’s actually a very complicated process he is trying to inform you about. If you notice the same referees are in the court with both Kobe and Lebron? Coincidence? Of course it is right? Now whether or not someone “planned” all this out is a question I still have not answered. I certainly don’t know anyone in the “inner circle” that could tell me. However if you do check out the channel he asked you to, you will see there seems to be endless “coincidences” in all major sporting events and media events. Many times including deaths of the well known. So the question becomes, is it the work of God himself exposed in our physical reality? Or perhaps it is manipulation by those who see what most cannot. Questions I’m not sure will ever be answered.

This is honestly the most 🔥 thing Lebron has done in honest and perfect timing and execution. It did it to perfection and a Tribute dunk to the all-mighty Kobe Bryant, while also being a Laker and the whole scenario resembled each other completely. Besides his 3-1 comeback against a prime, 73 Won GSW squad in the finals, this is another top 5 Lebron memory for me. Also, the alley-oop dunk with Wades early celebration against Milwaukee is on my list as well of course lls! I’ll leave the other two up to imagination!!

Refs have a rulebook with certain movement-lines they have to follow during certain plays, but yeah it looks awesome. By the way, Kobe used to read the whole guidelines book of the refs, to see where the 'blind spots' on the court are where the refs cannot see everything. He would then exploit these blindspot by locking up players there with subtle grabs etc.
