  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

avocados are just disgusting. period.

if those weren't bad enough, they make guacamole. which is just as sinister as what it comes from. guacamole.. that word just sounds evil in itself.
*GASP*
Oh, no. No! No, no, no, NO! Guacamole is so good. You must have had some bad guac or something because I think it's even better than avocados. :yum:

Guacamole is awesome!

Amen brotha-friend!

I'm smellin what you're takin a second peak at :p

I know avocado is so good for you, but I just can't bring myself to like it :sick:

Ew! ^_^

Well, there are plenty of other foods which are good for you. So you'll be fine without it. But it is really good. I don't really think it has much flavor to begin with, but something about it is so nutty and good. :D

You know what's amazing about Jordan too? He's 30th all-time in games played. Kobe is 12th all-time. Kobe will have played at least 200 more games that Jordan did, and yet he still accomplished all of that. He averaged 30.1 points per game for his career for crying out loud. There's just no one who comes even close (although Lebron might by the end of his career, except he's also lost in the Finals.)

EDIT: And Jordan led the NBA in scoring 10 different seasons. 10! And Kobe has only done it 2 seasons. I could go on and on :p :zoro:
You cannot hold stats up as the benchmark in this case.

Championships: If you say Jordan is better because he has 6 championships and Kobe only has 5. Then by that standard Bill Russell beats them both with 11.

I mean pretty much every stat you mention to say Jordan is the greatest is in reality dominated by either Bill Russell or Wilt. So if we go by that standard then Jordan is not even close to being the greatest because Wilt and Bill Russell are the 1 and 2 on the Greatest NBA Throne.

The reason I say Kobe is indeed the greatest player of all time is simply based on comparing the game Kobe and Jordan play. If ya compare their play, you know Kobe is a better 3 point shooter than Jordan. That alone gives Kobe the edge. Other then that most of their playing style is identical.

This Kobe vs Jordan argument is like the Messi vs Ronaldo argument in Soccer. Something where in a team sport its hard to take individual stats to seriously. So you have to go on who is the best on their on field ability. Ronaldo wins simply cause hes a supreme header of the ball and has better long range shooting ability.

remember the american olympic team years ago? they called it the "dream team"

never before or after has there ever been a greater basketball team assembled. think about it. you had some great players in their prime already established. (byrd, magic)

you had some up and coming allstars that were going to end up being greats themselves. (jordan, barkley, etc.) they say that noone even came close to touching them in the games. what's amazing is that it's said that during the times they were practicing in preparation for the games, they would play each other. now it's one thing for them blow thru their competition in the world, but for them to play each other? wow

i'd like to have been a fly on the wall during those. i've heard conflicting reports that have said that no footage was recorded of the american team playing one another, and then others have said there is. i dunno. if any video exists i'd love to see it.

But we're talking 6 for 6 in the NBA Finals with 6 Finals MVPs. I just don't think we'll ever see someone do that again. And the season MVP awards are significant too.
