the lakers have like 7 retired numbers, that's nothing

Highest chance of murder/cannibalism of any active NBA player so I voted that.

you still watch the NBA, alex? you should post in the rolling thread!

It's the Lakers, so I expect #8 & #24 and two statues, one bald evil older Kobe and one young gunslinger baby fro Kobe.

"you still watch the NBA, alex? you should post in the rolling thread!"

I watch like three regular season games a year these days. I get interested around playoff time usually (although I was kinda half-hearted about it last year.)

I'm so happy that
a) more than 10 ppl voted in this
b) every option got at least one vote
c) 69 was the winner because that is the sex number

― Todd Terragh - "It's the Harps" (m bison), Monday, 31 December 2012 00:31 (eleven years ago) link

two weeks pass...

I wonder if Kobe comes earlier to the NBA. he would go all over MJ and lesson received, would his confidence remains the same ? Drexler for example, after 1992 playoffs lived with the burden of "not Jordan" his entire career ...

met a 37-yr old dude this wkend (he works w/ a good friend of mine), said kobe is his fav athlete of all time, he named his son kobe, verified by his wife w/ a bit of an eyeroll, and thinks kobe will play ~4 more years
