TO MIKE BIBBY!

[gregshin]

i'm not a laker or kings fan...but ya earned my respect...never thought you were that good. hope to see ya ball it up more in the playoffs.

 

[pyonir]

maybe you should have sent HIM and email, or sent HIM a letter. i'm not to confident Mike Bibby is going to be checking out that ATOT forums.

 

[hoihtah]

haha...

 

[chansen]

Agreed. Living in Canada, I've seen him more than most while he was with Vancouver, but I never suspected he was, or could be, that good. Certainly, he's a better guard than Stoudamire out of Arizona before him, and a lot better than White Chocolate.

Bibby was the man last night. He stepped up when no one else would or could. Argh, damn the Lakers!

 

[boyRacer]

Im a Laker fan but this guy is damn awesome... making shots whoever guarded him... man... crazy... free agent next year... i think his market value just tripled after last night's game.

 

[BigPotato]

Bibby is a pimp player.

The Kings will probably do all they can to keep him.

I won an autographed Mike Bibby mini basketball a little while ago, until now I thought that it wasn't going to be worth much.

 

[Harvey]

My compliments to both teams for a hard fought, well played game and the fine sportsmanship they all showed when it was over. All seven games were outrageous nail biters.

 

[b0mbrman]

Yawp. I'm a Laker fan and he earned mine too...he's turned into something very special...and to think he struggled in college

 

[Lucky]

I thought it was classy of Kobe to talk to bibby after the game (both privately on on-air). Evidentally they played ball in the same city in HS and entered the NBA the same year. Hats off to bibby .

Yeah, Bibby rocks. I'm really bummed that he doesn't get to continue on to the finals. Well if you wanna check out another good former Arizona player, Richard Jefferson plays for the Nets. He doesn't get that much playing time but he usually contributes the few minutes he does play - and that guy can JUMP!!

go nets!! and any other team that plays the Lakers in the future!!

Yeah they also had a little thing showing their fathers playing together back for Philadelphia in the 70's, so I guess they go way back

My little brother told me that both of their dads played on the same NBA team at some point

[Edit] I am so slow

 

[Hoeboy]

if bibby doesn't resign with sac, i don't think they'll be as competitive next year. if lakers can get bibby to compilment kobe, omg, four-peat anyone? but that's highly unlikely. most likely he'll be loyal to the kings.

is this a joke? struggled in college? He greatly helped Arizona win their only NCAA championship in 97 before leaving early to enter the draft.

And he played hs ball in Phoenix - not same area as Kobe, but they encountered each other in various all-star games....

arizona won the tournament in biby's freshman year. he stayed in college one more year. he was a big reason why they won the tournament. the dude can play. he'll become the go to player for the kings if he stays.

yeah, hes young but it seems like he's in the HANDFUL of players that enjoy taking clutch shots and dont back away from them.

I saw that. Another mic shot into the picture and Gray practically shoved it out of the picture... he seemed mighty pissed.
