RIP Kobe Bryant

[The Artist Formerly Known as PhormerPhrog]

Hate to interject into this squabble but saying the N word is never an honest mistake, however I don’t hear it at all and neither does the speech path spouse who hears even the slightest intonations.

Badass!

I’m gonna have to check myself from shouting “Kobe!!!” When I play with the kids or shoot anything in general now.

It’s a go to dad catch phrase for any shooting motion for me.

If anything, keep saying it or say it even more. Let his legacy live on.

Any relation to Joe Altobelli?

That’s really neat by Cuban

I don't know.

Seems self-serving, to me. Let the Lakers and NBA make their comments and tributes. Perhaps he should have said something about the NBA should retired 24 across the league or something. Besides, seems weird to do that before 41 and I guess he continues to forget about another Mavs great who wore 24.

Just like it says, Mavs PR...

If you google every NBA PR site, everyone has something similar I’m guessing. The random few I did were all alike.

No one is claiming she did it on purpose. Why were the Knicks on her mind? There's no association at all. She did it. Just admit it was a slip of the tongue. We've all had Freudian slips.

Rough day?

A speech disorder is a lot easier to treat than a character defect.

No one on this board agrees with you.

I'll admit, when I first heard it (which is before the "nakers" defense and when it had literally just started going viral with the first caption I saw implying she had clearly said the N word) I was initially convinced she had actually said the N word.

But after listening to it back, she 100%, without a shadow of a doubt said "Nakers."

I have very little sympathy for her though. As far as I'm concerned, anyone that works for MSNBC sucks. But she definitely said "Nakers," and anyone arguing against that fact is just being ridiculous.

For once it's not you, huh?

Nice work ruining a thread about a legend and his daughter passing away suddenly. Would have been a shame to just leave it at that.

Rip Kobe. However, after Kobe destroyed the Nash & Dirk Mavs team in the playoffs , I and probably every Mavs fan hated Kobe until we swept him and Lakers en route to the finals. I think to this day that Cuban let Nash go because of that series.
