Kobe's ballhog.That's it,i hate him

You've never explained where this hatred of Kobe and the Lakers has come from...where did it come from?

As for LeBron vs. Kobe in clutchness, I don't know. I would think Kobe has had more so-called "clutch" moments than LeBron, but if nothing else that could simply be a by-product of the fact that Kobe has been in the league for about seven years more than LeBron has. And frankly, how clutch someone is can't really be quantified (if that's a word). Like someone said earlier, LeBron will demand a ton more attention than his teammates when the shot clock is winding down, so he makes a pass to, say, Mo Williams and he hits it. Is Williams clutch for hitting a basket under a lot of mental pressure, or is it LeBron for making the pass/ensuring he was open by drawing the opposing team away from him? You're going to get a wide range of answers on that.

And Abdi, I don't think you will find anyone, whether a casual fan or an NBA player, that will argue against LeBron being clutch, unless they're doing their level best to hate on him. The only argument is if he's more clutch than a couple of other NBA players. That's the real debate we should be having.

Oh, and despite my hatred for the guy, I would wholeheartedly agree that Pierce is more clutch.

Because of Kobe Bryant.When he could have pass it to an open man he would just take the shot.That got on my nerves and that will be the reason why i don't consider as the very best player in the league and i'll dislike the Lakers because they have Kobe.I like Lakers from the 80's!

Darko,your a big dirk nowitski fan..he doesn't pass to the open man

True,that's why he isn't my fave now.I like Oden and LeBron more.I understood a long time ago that if Kobe was 7 feet tall he would be just like Dirk.Nowitzki from what i seen passes to open man when he spots him,but he's the consistant scoring option for Dallas.Kobe's great scorer too but he can pass but he's that kind of player that he would just take a shot.That's it although if Dirk was a guard he would be much better

No,i'm Darko.What's up


I hate Milicic

Give Gilmore the edge over Unseld because he was just great all around

and I say Jordan is obviously the best clutch player ever

Pierce.

Dam the time difference from where im at
I wanted to be in the argument

Anyways interesting fact according to 82games Lebron is clutcher than kobe.....and Melo might be clutcher than them both

Anyways Lebron being a clutch player is a no brainer, of course he is clutch!
As for comparing lebrons clutch to Kobe's clutch its like CAguy said, Kobe has more clutch moments and shots than lebron, but lebron is better everywhere else in the clutch. When it comes to defending,passing, efficiency (FG%) and everything else. Lets just say its harder to notice lebrons clutch. THe one main think i think that seperates them is Kobe's experience. He has been in the league twice the number of years lebron has and that really helps.

He's under-rated.You aren't smart enough to relize his greatness

Yeah well.
You are smart enough to spell "relize". so nyeah.

Anywho.
Darko...they're not saying that because you like Gilmore. THey're saying that because you like an answer just because it praises Gilmore(who, at times, seems like he could be your lover or somethin) w/ no statistcal background. Was really just a quick(CBI trademarked ) no fact answer. Nothing to like or agree with....

Yeah.

ANd I agree. Khai is too dumb to relize anybawdys gratenuss.

The best clutch shooter in the NBA's history was Larry Bird!!!And Gilmore is better than Wes Unsled

REGGIEEEEE

Darko, here's a tip for you about debating/arguing with people. You automatically lose ALL credibility when you insult your opponent. For example, if I were to ridicule you for being incapable of spelling the word "realize" even when that's the wrong word to put there (should've said "understand his greatness"), I would lose all credibility in an argument against you, no matter what we were debating. You just did the same thing by insulting those who prefer Wes Unseld over Gilmore. Remember that when you try to argue with people.

I love it when veryone gangs up on poor lil darko...hahaha
