What I love about this confidence you're mentioning for next year, it's like you guys have no confidence in being great and winning it already this year. Kobe's aging afterall, I'd rather try to root for them to win this year than dream about next year. NBA history is a case study of dreams not falling barely short but crumbling bigtime, recent case being both the Bulls and Heat who were supposed to lead the league way into the next decade.
Enuf with this kobe getting older stuff. One thing you forget is that unlike your other guys who get old and done quickly, kobe has a very deadly jumper. The man has at least 3 more years of MVP-type basketball left in him and more years of damn good basketball left after that. at 36, i bet you Kobe is still better that a lot of very valuable people as they are right now: (ex: Redd, Johnson, Martin, RJ, JR, etc). If grant hill can still be a serious threat in any given game, i don't see why we should be ready to push the panic button on this age issue.
Anyway... yo! i cant wait to see the Bynumite and Pau on the court. Oh MY goodness!!!! I have no further words.... thats it. im done. my throat just chuckled up thinking about it. i think im gonna go lay on my bed, and dream about this $hit. oh my god i swear i act like a lil kid everytime i... thats it!
add this to that: my pick for most improved player coming into next season: Farmer....man oh man!
