bill simmons is one of the worst writers who ever graced this planet. he loves to spout his opinions that have no backing except his own emotions and how he feels. I should just start a blog criticizing all my least favorite players just cause i feel like it! "Lebron james is like that girl in the back of ballet class who is super talented but has bad ankles." its all noise it means nothing bill simmons has never contributed anything to the game of basketball except his bullshit opinions
Dear Bill Simmons......Lakers 9 titles since 1980(back to back titles 87',88'-- 2000-2002 3peat',2009-2010 made NBA finals in every decade since 1950's). Have been relevant as the game,leauge and competition has grown.
Keltics 4 titles since 1980( bulk of "dynasty" during the Civil rights era--see History channel,for 22 years no NBA finals apperances 1986 to 2008).Has declined since the game,leauge and competition has grown.
That is f'n hilarious...so passively insulting too. Oh well, that's Bill for you. 1 of my favorite writers hates my favorite player. Eh, whatchu gonna do?
Atleast he has the courage to speak the truth. Personaly I never liked Jordan untill the end of his career. Iverson, McGrady, Maubury & Kobe Bryant represent a selfishness and greed that's destroying not only basketball but the world.
Never once did Wade or Lebron stop believing in their team. They formed a better team, but never publicly humiliated players from the previous or current squad. Who's gonna take the final shot?! What a flawed mentality.
I love Bill Simmons but his hatred Kobe is so obvious. He loves Kobe's game but despises him as a person. His book is great though....Larry Bird wasnt a nice guy, neither was Jordan but Kobe really gets killed for it.
look, the guy is a diehard celtics fan...are you gonna just outright praise the best player on your rival? of course not...
like everybody has said, he admits his bias, but at least he does acknowledge kobe's greatness around 5-10% of the time...he calls him one of the 15 greatest EVER to play the game. high praise for a hater
he is so bipolar when it comes to his opinions on kobe. one second he rips the guy apart the next second he says he's one of the most amazing athletes he has ever seen
Wow those were some really douche comments that had nothing to do with sports and i thought he was the sports guy. I was thinking about buying The Book of Basketball but since he's putting down the greatest basketball player in the world, i think i wont.
I like Simmons a lot, hes really smart, funny, creative ideas and a great writer. but his bias can be VERY annoying. not when its blatant, but when it's subtle and hes pretending not to be bias. In situations like those i feel like he takes advantage of his position of intellectual authority as a sports writer. people trust his opinion and relative objectivity and he feeds them bullshit based on his own personal man-crushes and/or vendettas. thats not fair.
haha bill simmons is awesome, if ever i met him we would have the most indepth arguement about kobe bryant coz i am a kobe fan been since i got into basketball thru his hard times and everything, but also respect simmons coz hes a great columminst ... hus the biggest kobe hater lol
lol yeah Kobe really cares about high school, he's worth 200 million and has a hot wife. Bill Simmons reminds me of the guy in high school who didn't really accomplish much and put other people down to hide his own insecurities.
Kobe is the guy in high school who is the star basketball player and wins a championship all 4 years he is there. Literally. (4 rings) If the editor of your school newspaper is competitive, hardworking, and has a killer instinct, then yes sure, that is like Kobe.
@omgPastelQueso u kno its funny, kobe & simmons are very much alike in terms of basketball..complete students of the game. idk if u like or dislike simmons.. i like most of his stuff..but his outright bias/hatred of kobe makes him look like the bitter, jealous guy he is..
Just because he is able to articulate his emotion for the game of basketball as a fan on paper, it does not make him more knowledgeable then fans who have been watching the game there whole life. Yes, he is very knowledgeable. Yes, he writes entertaining article. No, his points or OPINION dont go a long way with me, because he tends to be soo bias. His articles are soaked with kobe hatred (over the rape accusations/not for his on-court play). he is all over lebrons DICK for the very same reason.
Yea, hes definally a Kobe Hater. It eats him up inside that Kobe is compared to Jordan, and Kobe has 4 rings.If u go on ESPN Now, he has an article where he compares Kob to Jordan, but the article is about players who have high trade value, and instead of talking bout that,he compares Kob to Jordan and says how Kobe will never be better than Jordan, he only does it with Kob tho, he didnt compare Lebron or Wade to Jordan and say how they want be better than Jordan.
That doesn't mean he's right about everything. This is the same guy who last year said that the Hornets were going to win the west and the Cavs were going to win the Championship. I also can't stand how much he over-hypes Lebron. He's already comparing this guy to MJ, magic Kobe etc. before he's won a single NBA Championship. I loved he's book though.
And? The fact that he grew up going to celtics games doesn't make him any more or less knowledgeable of the game then me or any other life long, genuine basketball fan, and vice versa. The guy is just giving his OPINION. People just happen to give a crap about it. Myself included.
is bill simmons just trying to act cool talking about parties and what not? okay bill we get you "might" have been known in HS, but kobe is kobe. Just let the man be. He is an athlete and is paid to play, i didn't know he was paid to be something else. He has a dime for a wife, and a happy family. As long as someone is happy there is nothing wrong with it. I bet if we talk about his boston teams, he'd say the same thing...smh..

It's funny that an un-athletic dork with a feminine voice gets to spew his insignificant thoughts about athletes that train and work 100 times harder at their job.

1) Who can stand Bill Simmons' voice?
2) Why does he follow/write sports if he thinks negatively critical of 95% of the athletes?
3) Whoever made the gay comment needs to understand that some people can sound queer and that's okay, but Bill Simmons sounds like the kid who got picked on in school and now let's out all his anger on these athletes.
4) Kobe could care less about Bill Simmons, but Bill wakes up every morning hating Kobe. I gotta say it's a sad state.

Simply put, THE dumbest statement ever made in the history of youtube.
Without LeBron or Bosh's signature, Wade would be taking pictures in a Bulls uniform right now.
LeBron? BWHAHAHAHAHAHHA. He practically yelled uncle in front of a worldwide audience versus the Celtics.
Yeah, they never quit on their teams. ROFLMAO
