people at the park yelling "KOBE!" while shooting over 2 people

Don't be fooled. That's more because of the Chapelle show lol
i see it all the time in china where people have no idea who chapelle is
 
No

He's a great role player doe
Why would you limit him to a role player? just curious

Because he hasn't shown anything to believe he's a top player in this league. He's a solid player that can do a lot of things, just nothing at a special level.

And no one emulates Kobe. Not a shot at him but now days everyone looks to jack 3s. Kobe is a volume scorer in an age that's moving to highly valuing efficiency.
 
Kobe been shooting over 2 people since his first all star year, Chappelle show had nothing to do with that :lol
 
unrelated but last time i played ball there were two 6'3 dudes on the other team arguing over who gets to be melo before the game started

we beat them 11-3

But when people yell "Kobe!' I think they have Chappelle's voice in their head
I'm not sure, but I don't think Kobe even yells "Kobe!" When he shoots over people.... So I'm assuming people in China are getting that from others, not Kobe 8o

dudes were saying ______ at the park long before the chappelle show skit

and kobe has an array of moves and footwork that should be copied.

Nobody emulates kobe? You really believe that

Unless you believe shooting contested fadeaway jumpers are emulating Kobe. I could understand the footwork argument, except that's what Kobe emulated from Hakeem
 
Yeah I'm sure guys were yelling "KOBE" long before when they took hero shots at the park, but I think guys did it more frequently & in Chappelle's voice after

It's just hard not to think of it after seeing it :lol

i guess i'm the only one that doesn't mind the idea of shooting "contested mid range jumpers"
It's definitely annoying on both an NBA and pickup level.

Unfortunately folks aren't out there emulating Kobe's footwork in the post.

Analytics are strongly against it, so it's unlikely to be rediscovered anytime soon.

This. I was saying "Kobe" long before I ever saw that skit but now every time I do it I think of Chappelle and say it how he did.

people emulate all great players

as a kid i would watch a lakers game or highlights then run outside and practice the move i saw kobe do

or watch ray allen sonics highlights and go shoot 3s for hours
 
dirk, kobe, and wade have had great success as mid range jump shooters. i know the stats say otherwise, but i wish more players mastered the mid range game.
