say you put kobe in china right now

[swagga]

would he be the MVP?

[Akrazotile]

21 ppg on 8/29 shooting, 4 rebs, 4 assists.


So, yes, MVP.

i don't know man, they got some tough competition down there, starbury, stevie franchise and all sorts of all stars. It ain't that easy no more.

[FKAri]

He'd be amazing for a few games here or there but he's not going to be able to play every game.

[outbreak]

If he bricks open jumpshots in the NBA why would moving to china fix that?

[Gus Hemmingway]

Last time he played a tournament in China he was the worst on the team, so no

wasnt that the 2008 olympics when kobe single handedly saved lebron from his 3rd consecutive international choke job

2008 Beijing
Wade >> Lebron >>> USA >> Kobe

[BigNBAfan]

^ did not watch the games. Look who had possessions in close games in the 4th. Wasn't lebron, wade or anyone else but beansie... even your GOLD vs Spain you can see how kobe took charge there.

[LikeMike]

No, he is worse than CBA Marbury.

[BigNBAfan]

His limitations isn't the competition but his physical condition at this point. He's been in the league longer than most posters on this site have been alive.

[TheBigVeto]

Considering the Chinese have this bizarre love for Kobe (even though he ruined the career of their national hero Yao Ming), yeah, regardless of his stats.

[HylianNightmare]

Beasley just put up b2b near 50 point games, so I'd imagine kobe would run away with the mvp award

[bigkingsfan]

In a wheelchair league, maybe.

2008 Beijing
Wade >> Lebron >>> USA >> Kobe

yeah but kobe still saved the gold medal game. all those stats against the shit teams were meaningless without that 4th quarter performance by kobe

i think he had a hand in the last 15 points or some shit

the only competitive game of the entire tournament was the gold medal game.

and lebron shrunk under pressure
