No gif but it looked pretty intimate, rest of USA players were giving Pau daps while hugging Kobe.

Gotta love SBNation, gifs from the Gold Medal Game.

Dom Toretto using the Reyes vault money to catch the game.

I'll admit, I never liked Kobe Bryant. Always cheered against him. When he entered the league, the days they would beat up on the Blazers (when Sabonis was on the team), to the Shaq/Kobe feud. Just thought he was this young cocky arrogant kid that thought he was the next best thing. Now, not that I'm jumping on the bandwagon, but I have nothing but respect for him. He's been elite for so many years now. Can't help but respect his work ethic and what he bring to the table every year. I see him as this wise veteran now that I can't help but cheer for to succeed.

fuck so many teams are stacked this year.. LOL still reppin my boston celtics!!

Resurrect?...Really?....I find it hard to believe the Lakers are ever 'dead'...they lost in the semi's...if that's called dead, what do we call Golden State?...

^ relax bro. lol. the video is just for fun... why always so serious lol


we all know the rest of the nba not named LA/MIA/OKC/CHI/BOSTON/NY/SA/ are all non existent in the league lol

Huh? Relax? It's a simple topic I've brought up by pointing out that the title for the vid is stupid...I know nobody here has said that they've been 'resurrected from the dead'....

its resurrection for lakers fans.. for another ring

getting knocked out in the playoffs two years in a row in the second round is like not making the playoffs

Well, they lost in the 3rd round with a roster that was more than capable of making it to the finals...

Lottery

This Nash/D12 addition is comparable to Malone/Glove back in 2004? I guess the difference is that Nash can hold out for another couple of years and D12 still got lots of life left.

Not even close...Nash is much better than the Glove was at the point in their careers at which they joined L.A. and Nash will be far more valuable filling a certain need to get this team's motor running...and obviously Dwight is better than Malone was at that point in Malone's career.

i have to agree with bballguy on that one

and i certainly hope it's not comparable because that malone/GP experiment did not work at all IMO

agree dwight is much better than Malone at this point in their career and with the help of nash he just gonna get better and better possible winning a MVP title and hopefully NBA tittle but nash-howard probably wont be as good as Malone-Stockton

or the trio of Olajuwon, Barkley and Pippen back in 1998-99. :failed:pip only lasted one year in houston

I personally wudnt call it a fail. That rockets team played well the regular season but there was a slim chance they could get by primed shaq + Kobe and the lakers then beat Duncan/Robinson era.
