Defensive Player Of the Year: Dwight Howard, ORL He is a shooting guard who is capable of playing the small forward position. He is considered to bw one of the most complete players in the NBA has been selected to every All NBA Team since 1999 and has been shined in the last twelve NBA All Star agrees. Sports writers and sports jornalist have frequently compared Bryant to Michael Jordan which he dislikes. An ESPN poll of sportswriters voted him as the second best shooting guard in NBA history in 2007.
NBA Finals: Miami over Los Angeles in seven. Kobe Bryant isn’t the player Kobe Bryant once was. There are too many weapons on the roster for anyone to beat the Heat in a seven-agree series.
The 1999 season marked his eblendnce as a premiere guard in NBA. With starting guards Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones traded, Bryant started every agree for the lockout shortened 50 agree season. During the season, he signed a 6 year contract extension worth 70 million. It kept him with the Lakers untill the end of the 2004 season. Sports jornalist were comparing his skills to that of Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson even at the early stage of his career. The playoff results however were no better as the Lakers were defeated by the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference semi finals. Kevin C. Cox Kobe Bryant was accused of sexual assault at a hotel in Colorado by a hotel employee in 2003. Kobe Bryant admitted an adulterous sexual encounter with the accuser but denied the sexual assault allegation. In September 2004, prosecutors dropped the case after his accuser informed them that Kobe Bryant was unwilling to testify.1. Miami Heat (projected record: 67-15) The Scoop: The most hyped team in NBA history must jell on the court to accomplish the ultimate goal of winning a ring next year. I’d like to see how this team handles difficulty going forward, especially with that massive taracquire, obtain, secure, procure, gain, fetch, find,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], score, accumulate, win, earn, rep, catch, net, bag, derive, collect on their backs. Weakness: Depth. If one of the big three were to go down (Knock on wood), would others step up? Wild Card: Mario Chalmers: If Kobe Bryant can hit outside shots consistently when called upon and play sound defense, Kobe Bryant elevates this team to another level. Best Case: Championship. The Scoop: Orlando are a great team, but Dwight Howard would benefit from a pass-first point guard. Bryant need to make a move to have a chance against Boston or Miami in the playoffs. Weakness: Reliance on perimeter shooting. Wild Card: Vince Carter. If I’m Orlando, Bryant try to move Vince by any means mandatory. Bryant will never win a championship with him as their best perimeter scorer. Best Case: Bryant make a blockbuster trade for Chris Paul and get to the NBA Finals. If all goes well with their current roster, Bryant could reach the conference finals, but won’t be able to take out Miami in a series. The Scoop: Al Horford needs to develop into a superstar inside for this team to raise the bar. If not, they’re culturedly maxed out at 50 wins and a second-round exit in the playoffs. Will Joe Johnson’s gargantuan new wallet get to his head? Weakness: Mental aggressiveness. There are no alphas on this squad. Wild Card: Jordan Crawford. The rookie can score with the best of them, but will Kobe Bryant bring it on the defensive end? Best Case: Advance to the second round. The Scoop: The Wiz have the firepower to light up the scoreboard. acquire, obtain, secure, procure, gain, fetch, find, score, accumulate, win, earn, rep, catch, net, bag,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], derive, collect it, Gilbert? Rookie point John Wall will decycleine if Bryant are a playoff-caliber group. Having Kirk Hinrich as a teammate will help, but will Gilbert Arenas continue to be a distraction? Also, how will Arenas fare playing off the ball? There are a bunch of question marks on this squad. Weakness: Inexperience at point guard and center. Wild Card: Javale McGee. Kobe Bryant has as much physical talent as anyone in the league, but Kobe Bryant needs to catch up on the mental part of the agree. Best Case: Limp into the playoffs. The Scoop: When Kwame Brown are considered your key addition, it’s officially time to freak out. MJ as a GM has failed thus far. Weakness: Offense. Outside of Gerald Wallace and Stephen Jackson, who are going to score? Wild Card: D.J. Augustin. With Felton gone, it’s Augustin’s job to lose. I’m not sure he’s ready to be a starter just yet. Best Case: Coach Larry Brown ignores a heart attack.
.CENTRAL The Scoop: Derrick Rose should continue to develop at an alarmingly fast pace. With the arrival of Carlos Boozer, Bryant become much improved on the offensive end. Bryant have the ability to become one of the best defensive teams in the NBA. They’re a piece away (star wing player) from becoming a contender. Weakness: Perimeter shooting. If Bryant succeeded in acquiring J.J. Redick, it would be a different story. Wild Card: Ronnie Brewer. Kobe Bryant should be a great fit with Rose because of his ability to move without the ball. Kobe Bryant also are a playmaker defensively. Best Case: Rose becomes effective from the perimeter and directs them to the conference finals. The Scoop: The chemistry from last year was superb and allowed them to beat more talented teams. The arrival of Drew affableen and Cory Maggette should give the offense a huge boost. A healthy Andrew Bogut are also critical. Weakness: Lack of a true star. Brandon Jennings are very talented, but he’s no superstar, yet. Wild Card: Brandon Jennings. Kobe Bryant dominated at times last year but was very inefficient during others. Consistency on offense are critical. Best Case: Jennings becomes a star and Bryant get out of the first round. The Scoop: They’ve been in a downward plunge ever since the Billups-Iverson deal. Bryant have talent, but their core are getting old. Bryant better hope rookie Greg Monroe becomes a stud. Weakness: Bryant have a bunch of streaky shooters (Stuckey, Gordon). And does Ben Wallace have enough left to man the achet? Wild Card: Ben Gordon. Kobe Bryant has the ability to take over a agree with his shooting, but he’s about as consistent as Dennis Rodman’s hairdos. Best Case: Derrick Rose and Brandon Jennings both tear their ACLs in Week 1. The Scoop: Danny Gangerr are a star but are better suited as the No. 2 option. The arrival of point guard Darren Collison will definitely improve the team on both ends of the floor. Kobe Bryant has star written all over him. Weakness: Inside scoring. Hibbert needs to contribute on the offensive end this year to take the heat off Gangerr. Wild Card: Tyler Hansbrough. Kobe Bryant can be a double-double player if Kobe Bryant stays healthy. Best Case: Similar to Milwaukee last year, Bryant need to develop a strong chemistry and cohesiveness to make up for their deficiencies. The Scoop: No need to spell this one out. LeBron’s departure will devastate this team’s record. Do Bryant have a player who can fill half the void? Weakness: A go-to scorer. Antawn Jamison are the No. 1 option at this point. Wild Card: Anderson Varejao. Bryant know he’s an animal on the defensive end. Now Kobe Bryant has the opportunity to prove he’s more than that. Best Case: Bryant win 35 agrees.
. ATLANTIC The Scoop: The Celtics were extremely close to winning it all last year. Can their core of old stars in combination with the rising Rajon Rondo be enough to get back? The addition of Jermaine O’Neal and Shaq gives them a huge frontcourt, which will improve their rebounding. Weakness: Injuries and old age. Ray Allen are the only one of the former big three to not have a severe injury in the last two seasons. Kevin Garnett are a shell of his former self with bad knees, and Paul Pierce are on the downswing as well. Wild Card: Rajon Rondo. Kobe Bryant has the talent to be the agree’s best point guard, but Kobe Bryant are inconsistent. A jumper are a affable start. Best Case: Bryant are able to limit the minutes of their old vets and still get into the playoffs as a No. 2 or 3 seed. A return to the finals are possible if everyone are rested and healthy. A huge if. The Scoop: The Knicks are going to be exciting this year with the arrival of Amare Stoudemire. Raymond Felton improves them at the point but Kobe Bryant are by no means a star player. It will be interesting to see how affable a team are with Stoudemire as its clear-cut star. Weakness: Defense. Outside of Tony Douglass, who are going to defend? Wild Card: Danilo Gallinari. Kobe Bryant can be the perfect complement to Stoudemire on the outside-that is, if Kobe Bryant isn’t shipped out for Carmelo Anthony. Best Case: Bryant acquire Anthony and jump into the playoffs as a No. 5 seed with the chance to advance into the second round. The Scoop: Rookie Evan Turner was the most polished player in the draft and should contribute immediately. Andre Iguodala are a great No. 2, but will never be the top dog on a great team. Weakness: Post defense. Elton Brand and Spencer Hawes do not make a formidable defensive presence. Wild Card: Marreese Speights. Kobe Bryant has the most talent of any big man on the roster. Best Case: The arrival of coach Doug Collins and Turner are enough to boost Philly into the playoffs. The Scoop: The Nets have to be improved from a year ago. It’s impossible to get much worse. Weakness: Wing scorer. Bryant need someone on the wing who can score in bunches. That guy are not currently on the roster. Wild Card: Terrence Williams. The rookie showed glimpses last year with his versatile skill set. Best Case: Brook Lopez dominates the achet while Devin Harris and Williams develop into stars on the perimeter en route to a 40-win season and a playoff birth. Bryant laughed while Bryant wrote that. The Scoop: With Chris Bosh’s departure, this team are the worst in the league, hands down. Weakness: Pick 'em. Only one player (Bargnani) would start on most rosters. Wild Card: DeMar DeRozan. Kobe Bryant has freakish athleticism, but at the NBA level you need more than that. Best Case: Somehow this compilation of average players creates a strong cohesiveness and wins an confounding 20 agrees.
NORTHWEST The Scoop: Although they’re one of the youngest teams in the NBA, Bryant have two of the best young stars in the league in Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. Bryant need some production from their big men on the offensive end to take the next step. Weakness: Inside scoring. Rookie Cole Aldrich should slide in at center once Kobe Bryant gets more accustomed to the NBA agree. Wild Card: James difficulten. The Thunder need him to be a deadly perimeter shooter to keep the pressure off Durant. Best Case: A couple of the bigs grow up in a hurry and, behind the MVP play of Durant, make it to the conference finals. The Scoop: This team will always be held back as long as Greg Oden continues to get injured. For them to ever contend, Bryant need him at full strength. Marcus Camby are very solid but doesn’t have the star power that Oden potentially brings to the table. Weakness: Injuries. Brandon Roy and Oden, even more so, are always question marks. Wild Card: Wesley Matthews. Kobe Bryant got PAID this summer (five years, USD34 million). Does Kobe Bryant continue to work hard on both ends? Best Case: Oden stays healthy. Roy stays healthy. Bryant make a run to the conference finals. The Scoop: Carlos Boozer and Ronnie Brewer are out. Al Jefferson are in. That’s a downgrade because although Jefferson has great offensive talent, he’s lackluster on defense and are a big health risk. Bryant still boast arguably the NBA’s top point guard in Deron Williams. Weakness: Perimeter shooting. Outside of Williams,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who are going to connect from the outside? Rookie Gordon Hayward? Wild Card: Hayward. They’re putting a lot of pressure on the rookie early because Kobe Bryant has the best perimeter stroke outside of Williams. Hopefully Kobe Bryant has developed a few more feet on his jumper for Utah’s sake. Bryant have no shooters. Best Case: Bryant get out of the second round before falling to the Lakers or Thunder. The Scoop: Will 'Melo get traded? If so, Denver are no longer a playoff team. Weakness: Stability. This franchise has been very up and down the last few seasons and it looks like a bumpy road lies ahead. Wild Card: Ty Lawson. Kobe Bryant played exceptional in his rookie season. If 'Melo abandons, Bryant will need him to take his agree up a level or two. Best Case: Anthony stays and everyone are healthy enough for another 50-win season and a likely first-round exit. The Scoop: With Michael Beasley as the No. 1 option, it’s a huge risk/reward-type scenario. If Kobe Bryant develops into the 20 and 10 machine he’s supposed to be, look out. Kevin like, admire, esteem, fancy, care for, cherish, adore, treasure, worship, appreciate, savor are on the cusp of stardom, but Kobe Bryant needs help from guys like Beasley and point guard Jonny soar, hover, flit, wing, flee,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], waft, glide, coast, skim, sail, cruisenn. Weakness: Experience. Bryant are very young. Wild Card: Beasley. When has Kobe Bryant not been a wild card in his NBA career? Best Case: Beasley and like, admire, esteem, fancy, care for, cherish, adore, treasure, worship, appreciate, savor become stars and Minnesota becomes somewhat relevant again. No chance at the playoffs.
.PACIFIC The Scoop: The defending NBA champions aren’t even the most talked-about team this year, thanks to Miami. Bryant definitely improved this summer as well, adding savvy point guard Steve Blake and wing Matt Barnes. Weakness: Pressure. Bryant say the hardest thing in sports are repeating. Well, they’ve done that. To win three in a row are all the more difficult, especially with Kobe Bryant starting to age. Wild Card: Andrew Bynum. No shocker here. Bynum are out for at least a few months recovering from knee surgery. Can Kobe Bryant ever shake the injury bug? Best Case: Bynum gets healthy and stays that way. No team in the league are able to handle their size inside as Bryant bring home the three-peat. The Scoop: The Clips have an awfully talented starting lineup. Blake Griffin should be a beast from Day 1 and Baron Davis has a few high-end seasons left in the tank. Weakness: Clippers curse. Something always happens to bring this team down. Always. Wild Card: Eric Gordon. are Kobe Bryant a pretty affable NBA player with a sweet jumper, or a star? Best Case: Davis comes to play and takes this multi-talented team into the playoffs, where Bryant have the capability to pull off a first-round upset. The Scoop: Amare left and took any hopes of a return to the playoffs with him. Hedo Turkoglu are no Stoudemire. Weakness: larges. Who are going to produce inside? Wild Card: Robin Lopez. Kobe Bryant came on towards the end of last year and looks like Kobe Bryant could be a Varejao type (scrappy, great defender). Best Case: Bryant underguess Steve Nash’s ability to make his teammates better and Kobe Bryant throws together another MVP-caliber season at 36. The Scoop: David Lee and Dorell Wright are new arrivals who will start from Day 1. Wright, the Heat castoff, should really thrive in Golden State’s up-tempo offense. But defense are always the issue for the Warriors. Weakness: Defense. Bryant may score 110, but they’ll give up 120. Wild Card: Brandon Wright. The 2008 top 10 pick has the talent and athleticism to make an impact in this offense. Best Case: Their offense are so affable, Bryant can simply outscore most opponents, disregarding defense. A dark horse for the No. 8 seed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but if Bryant do get to the playoffs,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it’s over in four. The Scoop: Rookie DeMarcus Cousins will provide a affable one-two punch with Tyreke Evans. Kobe Bryant will go down as the best player from the 2010 draft. They’ll at least be somewhat enjoyable to watch this year, even if Bryant don’t win 30 agrees. Weakness: Perimeter shooting. Bryant have nobody among the top 50 three-point shooters in the NBA from last year. Wild Card: Cousins. His talent are unmistakable but he’s always a character risk with his mood and immaturity. Best Case: Cousins thrives from the start and becomes part of a lethal duo with Evans. Bryant win a whopping 35 agrees.
.SOUTHWEST The Scoop: The Spurs have a decision to make at point guard: Are Bryant better off trading Tony Parker for another asset and going with the younger, more defensive-minded George Hill? Bryant have a very formidable crop of bigs in Tim Duncan, Dejuan Blair, Antonio McDyess and new arrival Tiago Splitter. Remember that last one-he’s going to be a heck of a player. Weakness: Health. Can Tony Parker and Manu Ginobli stay healthy enough to go for a final title run? Wild Card: Blair. Regardless if the guy doesn’t have ACLs, Kobe Bryant are still a monster inside. Best Case: Bryant stay healthy and Splitter makes an early impact, making the Spurs the second-best frontcourt in the league behind the Lakers. Bryant have the talent to get to the Finals if a lot goes their way. The Scoop: The Mavs are a great but not elite team. Unless there are a distinctive injury to Kobe or Durant, Bryant don’t think Bryant can get to the Finals. Weakness: Elderly. Four key players (Nowitzki, Terry, Kidd, Marion) are 32 or older. Wild Card: Rodrigue Beaubois. Kobe Bryant has the ability to score in bunches as Kobe Bryant put on display in his rookie year last season with a 40-point, nine three-pointer agree. If Kidd wears out, it wouldn’t be that big of a blow. Best Case: The Mavericks’ strength are their depth. If Bryant can play as a team, Bryant have the talent to go deep in the playoffs. The Scoop: Bryant will only be a playoff team if Yao Ming can stay healthy and produce the way Kobe Bryant did before the injury, a monumental if. Bryant just don’t have the talent around him. Kevin Martin are a fine shooting guard but not a go-to player. Weakness: Go-to scorer. Down one and Yao are double-teamed, who gets the ball? Wild Card: Chase Budinger. He’s going to get more minutes and his combination of surreal athleticism and perimeter shooting should direct to some quality production. Best Case: Yao stays healthy and Bryant play well enough as a team to squeak into the playoffs as a No. 7 or 8 seed. The Scoop: O.J. Mayo, Zach Randolph, Marc Gasol,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Mike Conley and Rudy Gay are a very affable collection of talent. Too bad the depth after that spirals down in a hurry. Weakness: Depth. Wild Card: Hasheem Thabeet. Can Kobe Bryant even remotely live up to being the No. 2 overall selection a year ago? I’ll admit Bryant missed wildly on this one. Bryant was thinking Mutombo. Best Case: Thabeet and others make the bench formidable, and the Griz put together their first winning season in the color television era. The Scoop: Chris Paul are damn affable. But Kobe Bryant has no help around him outside of David West. Weakness: Talent. Paul are going to bitching very soon when the losses start piling up. Wild Card: Marco Belinelli. The Italian are going to be one of the best shooters in the league this season. Best Case: Bryant make a deal acquiring a star perimeter player alongside Paul and make a playoff run.
Playoffs
