What Stern was saying was that it's one thing for players to try to draw a foul, move around, whatever. What Kobe does is the second he feels contact behind his arm, he swats his arm backwards in a direction that leads him to hit people in the face with his backhand or arm. He does this intentionally, it's obvious because he does it CONSTANTLY. You can't claim it's accidental. He feels someone behind him, and he does a no-look swing up and back, so he can act like he didn't mean to hit them.
Kobe averaged 35 ppg and STILL wasn't MVP that year. NO active player has ever averaged that much, the only players I can think of to do it are MJ and Wilt. He was BALLING that year, and he got robbed of MVP.
Good thing championships are selected by POINTS, not voting.
I Go nuts when people say Lebron is the leagues best and honestly that is so far from the truth. I think Lebron is a chump and the way he went about his free agency was a complete disgrace. Jordan never did that, nor did Kobe, Magic, Bird and even Worthy.No one is above the game. I think Lebron has so many flaws I still would take Dwayne Wade, a younger Garnet, and even Kevin Durant. Kobe on the other hand is the next best thing after MJ..No one will ever be better or like MJ, but Kobe is close
@MsTheexecutioner The issue with Kobe why he sometimes never gets the credit he deserves is because in many ways when he came into the NBA he was considered the man playing in MJ shadow and was a poor mans Michael Jordan and that reputation I think may have stayed with him to this day. The other arguement is Kobe would never have one all those championships if he never had Shaq on his team and my counter argument is he won a few more championships after the shaq era. Sports Illustrated said
i love worthy's backup of kobe i 100 percent agree there is a conspiracy because for one thing he only has 1 mvp. one. can u believe that. 1 mvp for potientially the best ever and already top 5 greatest ever to play. if kobe playedin the 80's he would have won more mvp's aside from championships. too many haters. james worthy is the man!!!
Kobe is the best player in basketball and everybody who doesn't think that does not know the game of basketball. Kobe haters are the worst people known to man
I guess the NBA...3 years after suspending Kobe...think this move is ok for a rookie to do, so he can win the scoring title. Waving your arms before, during or after a shot to draw a foul is exactly what Kevin Durant did all season to win the 2010 scoring title. Pathetic. Not only is this not an offensive foul now, refs call a foul on the defender for the contact and put Durnat on the foul line. Stern and the NBA are hypocrites and a rookie is never supposed to get calls like that.
When the defender are pushing the envelope on how much space he's allowing the offensive players, and sticking out his limb in offensive players shooting motion does that mean you have to give up your space if refs are not calling it? Granted player on offensive are allowed great deal of freedom, but still when a defender is being overly physical with you and not getting call for it, you have to force the refs to call either way or soon enough youll have defender walk all over you.
LMAO, a bunch of laker cock suckers, "he was just clearing out space", yeah, so after you shoot you can beat the fuck out of everyone as long as you were in the air, lmao
How are they on Kobe's nuts?,that's the truth!,Kobe was trying to make space for a shot,so what if Darko got hit in the face,that's how you play the game,kobe didn't do it intentionally,the officating in the NBA is more rigged the any other League IN THE WORLD PERIOD!
i'm sorry, but the guy blatantly threw an elbow. there was nothing accidental about it. the arm's momentum followed through on the shot, and then the arm abruptly reversed course and knocked the defender in the head. and sorry again. this guy just repeats like it's not controversial that kobe is the best player in the league. no he was never the best fucking player in the league. it was shaq, it was kevin garnett, and it was lebron james.
stu jackson is an idiot!! just cuz hes never seen something b4...he has to suspend someone?!?! if kobe scored 101 pts would he suspend him cuz he never saw that either???
No i'm talking about Allan Massengale.....Not Worthy......i'm from LA and believe me James does an excellent job on LTV..i'm talking about the WHITE DOOD
lol this is anything but James Worthy going nuts....
I was expecting some provocative devil's advocate stance by the other anchors but those pussies including the dude on location just agreed with him... "clearing your space" doesn't permit you to deliberately elbow a nigga in the face, so if that's what he did suspend him, if not then dont ... this is not about being a laker fan (of which I am 20+ years) or kobe fan.. shit i dont care if magic himself headbutted, if its malicious, suspend him.
If you are too young to remember Worthy play it's a shame. Lightning fast in the paint and almost effortless looking movement, never an ounce of energy wasted. I loves his dunks, he swooped in so fast with his hand just high enough to put the ball through. He almost never got any hard fouls on him. You had to catch him first and almost nobody ever did.
I remember these days! the 2005 season =( kobe always did that follow threw with his arms and it was unfortune that the defender got hit by his arm. Tough times. . . =) i cant wait for my Worthy jersey to come in the mail!!!
i remember watching this a couple years ago,worthy is right,people are fuckin stupid and they hate on kobe and david stern and the NBA has gone soft and turned into a bunch of pussies.just play the game!
I am not sure about Kobe haters because it's NBA suspended Kobe not those Kobe haters. Today's NBA is softer than old days for sure, back to 80s, 90s, it's much more physical, there's Jordan rule, and Knicks follow Pistons' Jordan rule, they could grasped a player in the air to stop him. Those games are awesome, bad boys VS. great team? That's just like WWF you know,it's more excited if involved more physical play, challenge players' temper, a great player will be calm while others will get nuts
shouldnt be suspended for that but still I cant imagine how that would be called a foul against the defender you dont draw fouls by swinging your arms at the defenders body, use your legs man.........
This is some of the most intelligent talk I've ever heard on television, and this is coming from a lifetime New Englander. Could not agree with James more "This is not the NBA I remember"
It's not even close to the NBA James was in from 82-95. NOT EVEN CLOSE.
say what you want, Kobe did a playground tactic to keep a player off you and to teach him a lesson. He shouldn't have been suspended tho, it's just a foul, the guy wasn't in the air and traveling to the bucket. I don't like kobe but wasnt fair to him
NOT DIRTY! Anyone that knows anything about playing basketball or jumping at all, knows what it's like to be in mid air and shoot a jump shot with a guy in your face. balance, focus. I don't even buy selling the foul. he has no control over it.
Anyone that would suspend a player for this is so obviously full of shit.
James was one of the cleanest players in the NBA while he was there. He is pro Laker but he's not gonna lie for Kobe. He obvioulsy felt that Kobe hadn't done anything wrong.
worthy is keeping it networth, kobe haters and laker haters are punk bitches it's that simple yell
