I bet LeBron's having breakfast with the Black women in his family right now.

"More than a simp for white women...."

Klutch Sports baby. :cool:

She also spoke about Kobe speaking about having them be at his HOF enshrinement. She also thanked them for raising an amazing son and we must not forget that she also thanked Kobe’s sister for going above and beyond.

It sounds like you have an issue with Kobe based on your comment about him which had nothing to do with your original question about whether his parents were in the audience.

You’re definitely entitled to your opinion.

Yes i have issue with Tobe. Thats clear and I make it clearer whenever the topic comes up. Hes a self hating white washed coon who gets a pass and is celebrated by the masses. Vanessa's entire family related preamble comes off as self serving window dressing. And that point is underscored by the absence of his entire family at the ceremony (not to mention how they were treated at his post mortem ceremony at Staples center last year). How do you guys not find that odd?? Are you that blinded by fanboyism? Kobe isolated himself from blackness in all areas from business to family to addressing matters of social justice. Sorry that i find that objectionable.

I don’t have fanboyism. Kobe’s just Kobe. Kobe hung out with his wife and kids, I didn’t know him to be around many others. Regarding his areas of business, you’re right. I didn’t know him to be associated with any Black associated businesses.

But I don’t know what Kobe did? I’m not sure how you find him self hating but I’m sure that you have your reasons. His parents were invited to the ceremony, if they didn’t attend the. They have their reasons. It looked like the sister was there.

Kobe, Vanessa and Kobe’s family had a damn near 20 year beef, they had deep issues that only they know the extent.

I also don’t remember him speaking on social justice issue, but I also don’t remember many athletes during that generation speak on them.

What makes it so obvious is his stans being so respectful to Vanessa. :yes: If she were a Black woman with all the things that have happened since his death I promise you the stans would be alot more vicious about decisions she's made. Leaving Nike for one.
 
Kobe stans didnt even make a seperate thread talkin bout his induction. I done clowned cats so hard they scared to share their Kobe fandom on the board now. :giggle:
MJ puts Kobe in the HOF and that shit aint even discussed like that. This mofo wife and parents the bigger story.

Time heals all wounds, and time reveals all coons. Kobe's death forced a microscope on his life and the lives of those around him that shows how much of his shit is a facade. His brand is for people that dont like Black people, but MAGA wont fuck wit him like MJ cuz they still think he raped a white woman.

You dont appear to. That wasnt directed at you directly. When i said "you guys" it was a general rhetorical comment regarding the blind worshipers.

He actually made it a point to go out of his way to speak against Lebron and Wade led Heat team who wore hoodies to honor Trayvon Martin after his murder. The guy was a fucking clown. His track record and dealings speak for themselves. He was who he was bro.

Kobe throwing Trayvon under the bus and siding with Zimmerman so the Rembrandts, LordSinisters, and Spida705s can feel he's superior to LeBron is classic. Killer instinct!!!! :itsawrap:

He posted that after Twitter lit his ass up. He also did a photo op with Trayvons parents. His initial response was to use Trayvon's death to show how different he was from Bron and the Heat for doing the hoodie shit..Remember LeBron made NBA players doing social justice work "cool", at the time it was frowned upon and a sign of lack of focus. Winning NBA rings and simping for white women was valued higher, now the NBA has social justice awards for players. Thats a testament to LeBrons impact cuz MJ and Kobe were celebrated for NOT speaking up on issues, shut up and dribble.

Kyrie Irving focused on issues other than hoops, says 'basketball is just not the most important thing to me right now'

The Brooklyn Nets are about to begin their postseason pursuit of an NBA championship, but Kyrie Irving says he's currently focused on issues other than basketball.

Irving declined to answer game-related questions Saturday after Brooklyn's 105-91 victory over the Chicago Bulls and made multiple references to the ongoing violence between Israel and Palestine.



"I'm not going to lie to you guys, a lot of stuff is going on in this world, and basketball is just not the most important thing to me right now," Irving said. "There's a lot of things going on overseas. All our people are still in bondage across the world, and there's a lot of dehumanization going on.
"So I apologize if I'm not going to be focused on y'all's questions. It's just too much going on in the world for me to just be talking about basketball. I focus on this most of the time, 24/7, but it's just too much going on in this world not to address. It's just sad to see this s--- going on. It's not just in Palestine, not just in Israel. It's all over the world, and I feel it. I'm very compassionate to it -- to all races, all cultures and to see it, to see a lot of people being discriminated against, based on their religion, color of their skin, what they believe in. It's just sad."
Israeli airstrikes on Gaza City flattened three buildings and killed at least 33 people Sunday, medics said, making it the deadliest single attack since heavy fighting broke out between Israel and the territory's militant Hamas rulers nearly a week ago.

The latest outbreak of violence began in east Jerusalem last month, when Palestinian protests and clashes with police broke out in response to Israeli police tactics during Ramadan and the threatened eviction of dozens of Palestinian families by Jewish settlers. Hamas fired rockets toward Jerusalem late Monday, triggering the Israeli assault on Gaza.

The turmoil has also spilled over elsewhere, fueling protests in the occupied West Bank and stoking violence within Israel between its Jewish and Arab citizens, with clashes and vigilante attacks on people and property. At least 181 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, including 52 children and 31 women, with 1,225 wounded. Eight people in Israel have been killed, including a 5-year-old boy and a soldier.

"I don't care which way you stand on -- either side," Irving said. "If you're a human being, then you support the anti-war effort. There's a lot of people losing their lives -- children, a lot of babies, and that's just what I'm focused on.

"So if you guys want to ask me questions about the game, I really don't care about it except for everyone leaving the game healthy and being able to go home to their families."

Irving scored 22 points Saturday and was reunited on the floor with fellow Nets stars Kevin Durant and James Harden. It marked just the eighth time this season that Brooklyn's Big Three played together -- and the first time since Feb. 13.

The Nets (47-24) are second in the Eastern Conference and can clinch the No. 2 seed in the playoffs with a victory in their regular-season finale Sunday over the Cavaliers. Brooklyn also would secure the No. 2 seed if the third-place Bucks (46-25) lose Sunday to the Bulls.

Irving, who was fined earlier this month for violating the NBA's media access rules, was asked Saturday about maintaining a personal balance between basketball and social issues that are important to him.

"It's a job," he said. "I was raised as a survivor. My family comes from practically the bottom in the South Bronx. They came out of some extreme conditions. I'm the product of a lot of sacrifice. ... It's a unique balance because you're on a platform or industry that -- a lot of people that are around it or surviving it don't really get a chance to say what they believe in, or they have to play it safe, or they have to worry about money, or they have to worry about what people are saying.

"I just think you can't be afraid to say what you believe in. It's not about consuming information or trying to be right or politically correct. It's about doing what God intends us all to do -- that's to stand on the good word of treating everyone with respect, compassion and love."

Why don't dis nigga just quit then. Tired of hearing about how much he don't give a fuck. We'd be roasting any other athlete constantly saying this bullshit like he's being punished for playing. Then we gotta give him a pass cause of some great charity event he's gonna be doing next week. It's ridiculous. Just quit and do something else. :angry:
