and I'd defer to the randomly picked videos of him demonstrating the fact that he is a flopping little bitch...which ironically, demeans himself.


and then, id defer to my previous post about mutual exclusivity

Wild.

He is 72 though.

Also, that show sort of sucks. And I like Paul Pierce, but he's not great on TV.

Maybe.
But he loves the Chiefs.
And he's also correct in this instance.

We agree there. I'm not a big Nick Wright fan.

I am a fan of him/his. I don't always agree with him but I feel he does his job better than 83.619% of the other people who have the same job.

Yes, Dennis Rodman is a man I seek for knowledge.

Don't forget, he's the same guy who said, "If Lebron was playing in the late 80's and early 90's, just an average player".
:?
and
"Larry Bird is overrated in a lot of areas. ... Why does he get so much publicity? Because he's white. You never hear about a black player being the greatest".
:?
To his credit, he did say, "I've got to give Larry Bird his due; he was a great player. He knew the game and he was smart".


He provided the Kerr "soundbite" for attention (that he thrives on) and I don't completely agree with him but.....
At this moment, I'll say - I feel Steve Kerr is a good, but an overrated coach. Sorry.


I'm being 100% serious when I say I respect this Rodman "wisdom", which isn't really "wisdom" and is probably more like "whizdumb" to many other people.

If you have a problem with my answer that's your problem, not my problem.

Chemistry is a class you take in high school or college, where you figure out two plus two is 10, or something.

This life is like a swimming pool. You dive into the water, but you can't see how deep it is.

Why should I try to make you believe the things I believe in?

It's almost totally split by age. And the people who say Kobe are just wrong.

I bet in the mid 90s a lot of people still said Wilt or Kareem or some other old head.

Yes, often age/generation plays a role.
I don't feel the people who say Kobe are just wrong. I may not agree with them but I wouldn't say they are just wrong.
I have said it before and I will say it again, when Jordan started to be the superstar he was, I felt Magic was the best player I had ever seen play. Then I felt Jordan was the best player I had ever seen play.
Then Kobe took over the reigns from MJ - so I can see why SOME people say Kobe.
Then LeBron took over the reigns from Kobe.
I don't know if I will be alive to see who takes over the reigns from LeBron and will then be in the GOAT conversation but my guess is someone does.

I never heard anyone, other than maybe Kobe, say Kobe was the GOAT until after his tragic death. Tragically dying can't elevate your basketball GOAT status in my opinion.

The 1st link was written in 2023.

The 2nd link begins with "the late great" at the top.

It's a no for me dog. I am not sure Kobe is even top 6.


He's been elevated AFTER his death. He is not the GOAT.

The funny thing with that first article's points arguing Kobe > Jordan ( which LOL ) is that those same points would have LeBron > Kobe ( which duh ).
