Don’t forget that this guy got off for rape. He basically admitted it.

He’s no Jordan and he’s definitely no hero.

You can read his statement.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobe_Bryant_sexual_assault_case?wprov=sfti1

Sorry...Sexual Assault is unforgivable. IF he was innocent, he screwed a 19 year old in her rear while his pregnant wife was at home alone. FWIW... I don’t call Big Ben or Bill Cosby heroes either.

I have read and followed it while it happens. Not on Wikipedia btw. You can think everybody is a rapist that is accused if you want to. I will not think that a good looking famous millionaire accused of rape of a 19 year old girl is guilty just because she said she was raped. She wanted to have sex with him and probably saw a way to try and get money. Maybe he did just get too rough with her idk. Either way he is not a bad man imo. He didn't hit a girl over the head and drag her to his room to rape here. Some of these famous people getting accused may be legit but this one is not. Girls getting drunk and having sex then accusing men of rape is pathetic and as a father of 2 boys I am scared that this could happen to them. Ofcourse Kobe shouldn't have been cheating but that doesn't make him a bad person in my eyes.

Great hops, smooth jumper, nasty handle and he was relentless. He was also brilliant, charismatic and spoke at least 3 languages.

Maybe I should just give him a pass like everyone else and ignore the neck bruises, vaginal tearing and ##### sample.

They had sex and maybe he was more rough then she liked but he didn't rape her. It's not giving him a pass or not. If it was some random dude I never heard about I would think the same. Him being good as basketball has nothing to do with it.

His statement before settling the civil case...

“Although I truly believe this encounter between us was consensual ... I now understand how she sincerely feels that she did not consent”.

He probably couldn’t hear her say no because his hands were around her throat. No big deal... because he can dunk a basketball.

Sorry I didn’t get the memo. No free pass from me. I guess his maker can judge him now.

He was better than MJ. Won 5 rings in a more competitive era, who did Jordan have to guard? John starks?

Also in America it’s innocent until proven guilty and the case never went to trail.

Let me guess... you are under 40. Jordan is the greatest ever. More competitive era? Jordan would average 50 in today’s pansy game.

The case was dismissed because the victim refused to testify after Kobe’s legal team drug her through the mud. I guess he paid her 2.5 million for consensual sex. Right.

Nobody that has ever played the game thinks he was better than MJ. I am a huge Lakers fan and that is laughable that you would think that. MJ is the best player all time followed by Lebron and Kobe. MJ is the best with really no close 2nd.

You can like what Trump has done but you need to acknowledge the fact that he is a racist arrogant old man who post on Twitter like a 12 year old kid. No disrespect to him I respect anybody who is our President. He is certainly not a good look for our country tho but neither are the democrats.

Jan 27, 2020, 5:25 PM [ in reply to Re: RIP Kobe Bryant ]

But ironically you reap the benefits of his success and influence because a lot of Clemson athletes, both past and present, saw Kobe as a hero. He influenced an entire generation over many sports—including CLEMSON players who you follow. It’s sad that your immediate response to someone’s death is to bring up what you don’t like about him. I genuinely hope no one does that to you when you die one day since you aren’t without fault.
