I miss prime kobe bryant . . Sigh. .

i'm hoping lakers can get the number 1 pick in next year's draft... problem is, byron scott is not a good coach for a young team. he was an excellent coach for jason kidd in his prime. but with a group of young players in the team, he is not a good teacher and he is not a good motivator.

i think it's the right time to push the eject button for Coach Scott.. unless if there planning to go for the top 3 draft , then
Scott should remain ....

as long as dili guard, daghan na ta ana haha.

2-way SF or a defensive big man to cover Randle would be ideal.

Kobe Bryant has announced he will retire at the end of the 15-16 season.


Dear Basketball,

From the moment
I started rolling my dad’s tube socks
And shooting imaginary
Game-winning shots
In the Great Western Forum
I knew one thing was real:

I fell in love with you.

A love so deep I gave you my all —
From my mind & body
To my spirit & soul.

As a six-year-old boy
Deeply in love with you
I never saw the end of the tunnel.
I only saw myself
Running out of one.

And so I ran.
I ran up and down every court
After every loose ball for you.
You asked for my hustle
I gave you my heart
Because it came with so much more.

I played through the sweat and hurt
Not because challenge called me
But because YOU called me.
I did everything for YOU
Because that’s what you do
When someone makes you feel as
Alive as you’ve made me feel.

You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream
And I’ll always love you for it.
But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer.
This season is all I have left to give.
My heart can take the pounding
My mind can handle the grind
But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.

And that’s OK.
I’m ready to let you go.
I want you to know now
So we both can savor every moment we have left together.
The good and the bad.
We have given each other
All that we have.

And we both know, no matter what I do next
I’ll always be that kid
With the rolled up socks
Garbage can in the corner
:05 seconds on the clock
Ball in my hands.
5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1

Love you always,
Kobe

even though we already know that this is inevitable, i still feel sad that he is retiring. before the season started, i was hoping that he could still perform at a high level, and bring the lakers to the playoffs this season... but reality is, it won't be happening. it's sad... but i'm hoping the lakers can rebuild faster than expected. lets go lakers gihapon...

sakita sa akong dughan pagkahibaw nako ron...

Mamba out na gyud. Tanan dick ride na ni Steph ani.
