    The thing that caught my attention is the fact that HE KNOWS that he would never be the NBA logo . The NBA and David Stern hated him as much as it gets . He changed the culture , he was rocking way bigger jerseys , he had tattoos all over him and he was real , which is the thing that pissed the NBA the most . He knows that David Stern didn't like him and probably still doesn't and i'm happy for the fact that he scared the shit outta him in the Finals against the Lakers cause the NBA wanted the Lakers to win and A.I. challenged the fuck outta them .

But you can't call it boring there were a bunch of young iconic stars that came along with that era no one had seen an Allen Iverson before, Vince Carter dunking antics along with TMAC and Kobe , Kidd and Nash playmaking skills, The PF of early 00's, Shaq blah blah I'm getting off the subway now lol cya

Everybody was trying to be an MJ rip off. I personally enjoyed it because I'm a basketball fan and fan of the NBA but it was a low period overall compared to the 80s, 90s and where we are now...even though I'm not crazy about the new rules in today's NBA.

      @GPLOCK it's an expression. Kobe was named the black mamba in his playing days, known for his fierce competitiveness. Black mamba snakes are one of the deadliest poisonous snakes in the world. When Kenyon Martin was talking trash to him he was having a mediocre night, but he essentially wakened the beast inside him and destroyed them scoring 49 points.

      pogiazz1 not true Kobe scored over 20 in the 1st so he started hot, it was game 1 where Kobe went I think 10 for 30 then the media was like Kenyon can guard Kobe then he score 49 with 10 assists the next game and torched him the rest of the series
