I'll say this about Kobe Bryant.

Did he have the love of the game? Yes. Did he have somewhat of a work ethic? Yes.

Did he have the maturity? No. Did he have the unselfishness? No. Did he have any individuality? No.

He COULD have been a great player but ultimately his selfishness, low basketball IQ and desire to be Michael Jordan derailed it.

He had some of the tools, but the lack of others were his downfall and that's the reason why he'll be forever remembered in the annals of NBA History as an overrated selfish chucker who relied on Two of the Greatest Big Men ever for team success and accomplished nothing without them.

If he would have followed through on the potential, I'll give him maybe top 10 of all-time but instead he's barely top 20.

But even so he's still obviously better than LeBron James and always will be at the game of basketball.

LeGod owns your mind almost as much as he owns the Bulls.

Did he destroy Duh Bulls in the postseason every season he played then, nope. And that explains this pathetic thread.

Kobe never played the Bulls in the post season, because the Bulls have stunk since MJ

True story.

Or maybe he was released from jail last night.

I see the OP has taken the outdated 18th Century political approach to weasel into some sort of concession here. Everybody knows in order to concede points inadvertently, you must axe the somewhat rhetorical questions that lead directly into what is so painfully obvious to everybody else.

Did he have love for the game?

Did he have a great work ethic?

Pick your shit up OP, there's grander methods of accepting defeat than this. Kobe destroyed you, and this is the drivel you let spill out the eastern reservoir of your face onto this board in a pathetic effort to save your bloated face?

Gasol is one of the greatest big men ever? Or was he talking about Bynum?

If only the op's hero Derrick Blows had a work ethic like Kobe, maybe he wouldn't be averaging 13 on 35% and 5 assists...instead he's one of the worst starters in basketball.
