I suppose you think it's OK to rape someone, as long as you're able to get away with it.

I sure hope you never have kids!

Well, that went sour in a hurry.

Charges were never filed against Kobe in the sexual assault case. To call him a rapist is inserting a verdict where there never was one (regardless of my personal thoughts of guilt on the matter).

That said, I'm no Kobe fan. The Lakers will be better off when 1) he's gone and 2) their ownership and front office can pull its head out of its rear.

Dewey Haters abound. Way of justifying they're hate . Hate or like..dude is iconic and can ball and has his place in NBA history. Is he the greatest Laker player ever? Hell no...but in top 10. Love him or hate him he was a gamer with a killer work ethic that is virtually non existent in today's watered down version of the NBA.

Sat behind Laker bench during a game in 2011. It was my son Kobe's first ever NBA game. We were later able to procure this actual jersey. Photomatch via our own pics.

Not going on a rampage, but I will be watching basketball for the first time in well over a decade next season. I promised years ago I was done till that clown retired.

81 points and 2 assists is not worth celebrating. It's the proof of the death of the "team" in basketball.

Maybe the good days of the excitement of those late 80s teams may return some day, but I doubt it.

My son loves the game, but we have agreed to disagree.

80s BBall was THEE best era in BBAll period. Never too return no matter who leaves or comes into the game. Today's game is boring to say the least. Zero rivalries, Zero competitive nature, Zero teams hating other teams.. days gone by.. sux

There is no denying his extraordinary talent, and there were times when he shot because there was nobody worth passing to from what I could tell, but he had no class in my opinion. In that respect he did not hold a candle to Magic Johnson.

+1 Showtime, Baby!

I'll say this, I'd almost rather watch Kobe's last game than watch Alex Wood try and throw a strike. Holy crap. First sign of Chris Hatcher and I'll switch to the Lakers.

Legendary Final game ! 60pts! Mamba feeds on your hate ! WoW gotta be GREATEST Final game for a player ever!

Justin, 81 pts, whether you like him or not, is a big deal especially in the modern era and they did come from behind to win that game. In the season that Wilt scored 100 pts he was averaging 2 assist per game. That being said your hate for the dude is noted but the guy can play.

A payoff to the accuser is never a good look.

I won't hate his game but I will hate the player.
