Kobe really spoiled us, and kind of warped our view of what we should expect of our young guys. He was looking like he'd been in the league for 10 years as a teenager, busting NBA guys a** in 1v1 in high school....truly a once in a generation type player.

Haha, IKR! The 2 guards in this year's draft especially are such a let down in comparison (Barrett, Culver, etc).

Thanks for this. Maaaaan I miss that kid. The generational talent was so easy to see in him, even back then. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

My exact thought plus the fact that our four lottery picks all were drafted higher and, despite playing a year of college ball, looked less ready to play in the NBA. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant

Yup. Other than Bron, I can't think of anyone more ready to make a grown man pro baller look like a fool. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."
