I'm sorry that as a 26 year old guy, I dont jump out my seat in amazement when Kobe hits a fadeaway jumper. And neither does anyone else on this board regardless of age.

He's not as exciting to watch when you compare him to a guy like D Rose.
I'm sure alot of people will jump out their seats if that fadeway is the game winning shot

--He still has his moments. But overall...no.
--And I'm what some would consider a "stan" too.

you mean push off?

as far as kobe being exciting, no. the second half of last season and this season is showing this dude has lost it pretty much. he doesnt seem to know hes lost a step. that could be the downfall for the lakers this year

I was waiting for the push off comment...come on brah. We seen this play a million times. MJ hand ain't make Russell do all that.

The question is if he is still exciting to watch. Guess what alley oops, flashy dunks, and crossovers get people excited, not guile and craftiness.

The only excitement he brings to the table now is his ability to hit game winning buzzer beaters and such. Kobe aint dunking over no one anymore.

O rly?
I still feel that he has a few facials to give come playoff time.

And after watching the documentary Kobe doin' work, I have appreciated his game that much more. He may not be as exciting, but he is still enjoyable to watch.

his triple-pump-fake-jumpshot annoys me

This man knows.
& yeah that triple pump fake is funny, but too nasty

But how are dunks the only exciting this about basketball?

 
It's still amazing how Kobe is still the best player in the league since 04' and on.... almost seven years now

If your definition of exciting is and1 type of crossovers and 360 dunks then the answer is obviously no. As a Laker fan, if him and the team continue to win championships then that's excitement.

For the casual fan maybe not. Kobe is probably one of the most skilled offensive players in the history of the game and it's still very exciting to watch he can go for 40 on any night still.
