http://www.nba.com/news/defensive_team_080512.html

How did KOBE get more Votes than Josh Smith, Ron Artest, Tyson Chandler, and Tayshaun Prince COMBINED??? HUH??? HOW??? Another reason why Kobe is OVER-RATED!

Answer 1

Dude, calm down with the capital letters...

We know that you haters try to immaturely put out your answers by tring to emphasize your points with "HUH???HOW???"

First of all, Kobe is shown to people as an offensive player due to his sick scoring abilities.

But people seem to forget about his stellar defense...

People talk about him being bad in the Olympics but may I point out that Kobe restricted Delfino (Argentina's best scorer when Ginobilli was out)

to very few points, infact Delfino started out 0-6...

He is better than all those players you mentioned at defense...and if you dont agree with me you should actually watch Kobe games instead of criticizing him without watching Kobe ever play...

You did not put out any evidence even saying why those players you mentioned were better than Kobe....

One more thing

you asked why Kobe got more votes than those other people let me tell you why.

Each person gets one vote and they will vote for the person who they think is the best.

If they think Kobe is better than any of those players (which I mentioned he is) Then they will vote Kobe over that player and that player loses the vote...Thats how he got more votes....

EDIT- lol whos pitching the fit...I think its the guy typing capital letters like a maniac saying stuff like "HUH HOW??? HUH ???TELL ME????"

Answer 2

I have seen him give up layups to slow european players

so that can't be true. he is not the best, not even on

the first team. he is an average Def player

Answer 3

How did MJ get on the 2003 All-Star Team when coaches and players didnt vote for him???

Answer 4

He got more votes because he's better!!

Are you clueless?

Answer 5

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!

BEST ANSWER ME!!!

Answer 6

I don't think so...

He's good in offense, but in defense he's average...

I can think of 20 guys more defensive than him...

Answer 7

haha esreg owned you.  

Answer 8

Kobe is a great well-rounded player. Let's not get his cocky attitude, poor judgment in his marriage and the dislike you have for him confused with the tremendous athlete that he is.  

Answer 9

My brother is right: Kobe Sucks

he cant defend my mother 1 on 1

Answer 10

Only when he wants to

So to your question ...which there is none but ... that is NOT DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR vote

that's All-Defensive team you dummy

Josh Smith is Small-Forward so is Ron , Prince ... Chandler is Center ...

Do you agree than Duncan is better than Chandler ? if so you need to stfu

Do you agree than Bruce Bowen is better than Josh Smith , Ron Artest , Price ? if so you need to stfu ..

None of players you mentioned is Shooting Guard

To Fakers( Person Below me ) I've seen Pau Gasol ( whose euro player )dunk on Kevin Garnett ...

So your point is useless

Edit: Why so rude ?

Why are you so stupid ? why are you so hater ?

Kobe Bryant averaged over i dunno 30( correct me if i'm worng ) points on Bruce Bowen on 50+ % shooting in playoffs ... and i don't see you talking **** about Bowen

Plus you Title Fails ...

Because that Vote is for All-Defensive team .. not Defensive Player of the Year

You did Not bring up any Shooting Guard ... but instead you brought bunch of Small Forwards and Center ...

Ok Sure have Chandler at Shooting Guard for your All-Defensive Team if you want to!

Answer 11

Kobe is a guard not a forward SMART ONE. If you got no more bs to post don't even post any more questions HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Think Happy Thoughts!

Answer 12

No, there are better defenders than Kobe in the league but Kobe is one of the best defensive guards.
