Kobe Bryant Graces NBA 07 Cover

NBA 07L.A. Lakers' eight-time NBA All-Star guard, Kobe Bryant is set to grace the cover of NBA 07 for the PSP and PlayStation2 versions.

Bryant, drafted in 1996, made his debut at 18 years old and has since gone on to become one of the most dominant and clutch players in the game. With an point average of 35.4 this year (leading the league), he also recently grabbed the second highest NBA single game point record with 81 against the Toronto Raptors earlier this year. This is not his only accolade however, as he also holds the records for the youngest player to start an NBA All-Star Game, reach the 10,000 point mark and be named to the NBA's All Defensive Team.

Now back to the most-anticipated videogame. NBA 07 looks set to improve over the depth and authenticity in last year's game by introducing new features, enhanced gameplay and a inside experience to the life in the league, through Volume 2 of the Life Mode - where players will experience the ups and downs of the NBA and will explore team politics, press conferences, endorsement deals and the relationship between returning characters The Kid and Big W. Bundle this with refine mechanics, Open Shot Indicator, Power Boarding System and a dozen mini-games, NBA 07 is looking very promising.

NBA 07, by publisher SCEA, is set for release this fall 2006 and is rated 'E' for Everyone.

I guess the woman having MULTIPLE sets of DNA in her undies means nothing? I guess whenever a girl yells rape she ALWAYS telling the truth? I swear some of you little kids need to grow up. As far as calling Kobe a ballhog, it is apparent to me you know very little if anything about basketball, so you might wanna stick with gaming. When noone on your team is capable of consistingly making a layup what can you do? Kobe has led the LAkers in assists every year he has started but 2, wich is saying something because he ISNT the pg of the team he is the sg and last I heard pg's were supposed to direct the offence with effective passing not the sg. Go check out assits by sg's then check out reb's steals and fg% then STFU and go back to playing your powerpuff girls game. As far as this game goes I will wait for someone to review it and/or rent it and see if I like before I buy.

Man if I were a girl and Kobe would rape me why not, what if like another celeb or athlete like lets say Paris Hilton or Anna Kournikova would rape you and youre a guy would you file a sexual assault against them..."Food for Thought"!. That girl prolly wants money not just sex!!! what a freakin whor*!!!

I'm a religous NBA fan and thus love having anything that has the letters N-B-A in 'em. But having Kobe as a coverboy for a game doesn't really appeal to me. I don't think he shoold represent anything, let alone be a role model for anyone.



This is not to say that I'm one of 'em Kobe haters. It's just that I don't think someone with such an attitude should stand up for anything (in this case gaming), he just doesn't deserve such an honor. His basketball skills are phenomenal yes (heck, 82 points is just plain sick! well, if you look away from the fact that he did have only two assists then). He just stand for everything that's wrong with NBA basketball; too much reliability on one-on-one plays, overlooking the fact that basketball is a TEAM sport.



Don't give me the crap that his teamates are not good, heck MJ made even Longley look good. The true measure of a good player is not only when he makes himself look good (for Kobe's part, awesome), but when he has the ability to make his teamates look better (like LBJ, Wade, etc.).



Also, I detest the "he didn't rape the girl, therefore he's not a bad guy" argument. He fully admitted that he CHEATED on his wife, that alone sounds immoral in the planet I live in, regardless whether he did rape that oklahoma minor or not.



One more thing, he was voted as one of the top ten most detested athletes - by his coplayers. That alone speaks of how much 'unworthy' he is. I'm sure we all notice how he glares at his teamates for minor errors (usually if the ball wasn't passed to him); and we all know the lamar tussle, allegedly from being fed up with Kobe's blaming.



Bottomline is: While I worship Kobe's amazing ability to score (no pun intended), I can't say he's one of the more complete players in the league today; exciting, yes. effective, no. And, his great basketball skills are not enough to make me turn away from the fact that he has attitude issues, and thus will never win my vote as a role model for anyone.

He raped her, that is why he settled out of court. Just because she was a slut doesnt mean she didnt get raped.
