DWade Knocks Kobe Out


Not the greatest knock out punch ever but still got the job done. If you're like me, then you spent Sunday night getting drunk and watching Harry Potter and/or the Oscars all you know about the All-Star game was LeBron had a chance to win it and turned the ball over instead. But when the fuck did this happen? Kobe Bryant suffered a broken nose and, yesterday, was diagnosed with a concussion as a result of Dwyane Wade's flagrant foul....in the All Star game.

I've been doing my usual thing on the internet/sportscenter/blogs and whatnot. My question is Why isn't this a bigger deal? Like why aren't more people pissed off? 

In a regular season Heat/Lakers game, maybe this is a fair play. But, down 12 points, 8 minutes to go in the 3rd Quarter of the ALL STAR game. Nah man. Wade makes no play on the ball. He's coming down at Kobe's shoulders with closed fists. You got beat. Let him dunk it. That's day one stuff if you're an all star.

In a season where you might play 9 games in 2 weeks. You want every chance to rest you can get. Spending the All-Star Break getting CT scans and wearing a nose brace ain't exactly vaca. Did I mention Kobe broke his nose on the play? Cause that shit happened. That's the real unbelievable part for me. Like human beings are wired to cry when they get hit in the nose. Something about tear ducks. Like you're not crying crying but tears just leak out of your fucking eyeballs. There's always that one asshole who's like "LOOK! He's crying!!!!" Like...Ok...I guess I am. I'm not hurt or on my period but yeah, ok, I am crying, sort of. Kobe just brushes it off like it wuddn't no thang.

I'm not the biggest fan of Kobe or DWade but, I guess I'm just pissed this isn't a bigger deal. People downplay Kobe's injuries knowing he'll never complain and they downplay Wade's douche-baggery cause it makes LeBron look like that much more of an ass. I just hope Kobe is as pissed as I am cause a pissed off Mamba would be basically guarantee that The Barnum & Bailey's Circus in Miami doesn't get a ring this year. Please take this personally Kobe!

Either way, Kobe ain't ever flinching.

Vacay? I think you need the Y for the correct pronunciation, not that I know the English language very well or anything.
