However, I don't think that the pundits game them much of a chance this year. I'm glad that the Dutch are winning and doing it with style! (Not quite "total football" like their previous teams, but still very entertaining).

Me too! There hasn't been anyone like him in a while .. I thought that Vince Carter might have been "the one" after watching his first two years ... but that fizzled. |

.. Right now Kobe has none (zero, nada, zilch
) He was Robin to Shaq's Batman; and yes, Shaq has three NBA finals MVPs! And MJ? Six NBA finals MVPs! Do I need to say more?

Just compare the competition, Jordan's competition was a joke. Kobe's competition is probably the best the league has ever seen. there really is no comparison to be honest. don't look at statistics, even Phil and Tex Winters who coaches both guys say that Kobe is more talented. he is probably the best 1 on 1 player the world has ever seen. If you want to look at stats, by the time Lebron's career is over, he'll make Kobe and MJ look like kids on a playground. guy is only like 23, and he is probably the most physically perfect basketball player ever. and about the Euro cup, at this point, it's just exciting. every time is a underdog. PS. im a basketball junkie, i follow basketball of all sorts (pro, college, rec ball, etc.). i've seen it all, as great as i think MJ was, Kobe is just as good. kobe in his prime or jordan in his prime? give Lebron MJ or Kobes killer instinct, and that's who i choose as my cornerstone player =) |

Take all of this competiton and he still won 6 rings with Pippen and a revolving Cast. 2 olympic golds. You ever heard the tales of Jordan taking charge of HOF's @ the 92 Olympics?? Bryant will never equal Jordan's Accomplishments As far as Lebron is concerned, he hasn't improved his game in 3 years. He's gotten stronger and faster so it's easier for him to score, but he hasn't improved his game or added to his arsenal in 3 years. I need to see improvement in him b4 I can say he WILL surpass Jordan btw- Jordan is 6-0 in the finals, Kobe is 3-2. |

The screen is very nice, it is quicker then I though and the keyboard is great, best virtual keyboard I have ever used, on pay with the iPhone - IN MY OPINION (I also haven't used the iPhone's keyboard all that much). The one thing I like is the TV. There is no such thing as buffering, it runs as smoothly as any TV you would normally turn on, even on EDGE. I was pleasantly surprised. I don't know if its because I work in the field or what, and I don't know if its temporary, but we shall see. I still like to play with the phones, I just don't bring any home. Its like going to the pet store, hanging out with a dog or cat and going home without one. |
