You know what...I just went through the entire thread, and after reading all of the evidence I have to agree with Longstroke that Kobe is overrated.
IS KOBE BRYANT...OVERRATED?

But while still listening and even respecting your opinion, he (magic) still may not agree with you. He may even have an argument as to why kobe is top 10. If he then were to share his own reasons as to why kobe is top 10 with you, would you consider him to be "someone who cant wait to run you off because he doesnt share your opinions"?

And you're both wrong. Fall in line.

Google "ad verecundiam" and realize that's what you're doing right now.
your argument is flawed. just pointing it out to you so you stop

Obviously, owning up to what you say is an ambiguous adventure for you.
[/quote]Yeah, that's not asking you you TO leave; it's simply asking why you don't. "If you don't like option a, then why not try
option B?" is not a request for you to try option B. It's a valid question based on the logic that you don't like option a.
But it really doesn't matter even if he did ask you to leave, because that should be none of your concern, since you have stated a number of times that the thread is about whether or not Kobe Bryant is overrated.
Yes, it's funny how rules are applied to different people; Artest and Suh feel you on that one... but that's also not fitting for this thread, which is about whether or not Kobe Bryant is overrated.

I will say I love how many people have started calling out argument fallacies that people used in this thread.

i wasn't being serious. i was hoping longstroke would quote me, but i guess maybe it's a good thing he didn't, im not trying to get banned for trolling a troll

he seems to only quote people which he can find an applicable logical fallacy picture for.

Of course not.
The difference, again, is that Magic has class. Buck and I would discuss it as men. Hey, we disagree, we disagree. But in person there is no REPORT button, there is no noble kane to run around calling people coach hubie, there are no multiple handles for one person, just to come at someone that you may disagree with, so if you say something disrespectful to someone that you disagree with in person, you may get your butt kicked.
That's the difference between an online disagreement, and then discussing things off line and in person.
Internet courage is no fallacy, and then grouping while on the internet does not say that you are brave, nor any more intelligent than anyone else.
Kobe Bryant, while a talented individual, hard worker, dedicated individual to his game, then perhaps to nothing else, earned his success.
Top fifteen in my book, not top ten. On Nike Talk, he's incredibly overrated and also, protected.

You calling me a troll is like my knowingly going to a Klan convention and then kicking several of them in the butt, with them then calling ME a racist.
That'd be an honor.

The Kobe fans do not want people on this site that feel that Kobe is overrated.

So purely taking about kobe and if he is overated, if someone in this thread said "i disagree with your point of view longstroke for reasons x, y, z" you would respect his opinion and agree to disagree?

The Kobe fans on Nike Talk do NOT want any discussion around Kobe Bryant, that isn't PRO Kobe all the way.
I wasn't even on this thread when it began.
These cats are really afraid, scared to death. No heart whatsoever, soft as ice cream.
You want to quote me, as saying let's close it up before we have 30 pages of nonsense. And out of all the pages you provided plenty of it.
But I was still willing to engage you in debate, and make you look foolish..
Enjoy hearing Kobe's top 10, and top 5 for the rest of your life. I know it's going to make you angry. So chin up chap.

What made me look foolish was actually trying to be reasonable with you, like I am right now.
It's a risk that I take while discussing Kobe Bryant on Nike Talk.

ahaha, you gotta be joking.. kobe is being underrated, even though the man is one of five players to ever score 30000 points in his career.. people still say that he is overrated and that lebron is better..
