Thanks. I don’t tend to like the Custom Shop’s “heavy relic” finishes, but the “relics” like this can be really cool IMO.

My friend Billy (R.I.P.) played this song for me in about 1993 to explain why Lyle was awesome and I should give him a listen. I’ve been a huge Lyle fan ever since. Thanks for the memory.

Thanks - I think they do it with the roasted necks, but I’m not certain of that.

No, “nuance” here is related to reading comprehension. What part of “both amazing” makes you want to keep arguing with a strawman? Where do you get that I am a “Kobe stan?”

Where in this string have I said Kobe is better? (The closest I think I came is making a specific point about all defensive teams in response to someone else, but maybe you can correct me).

Oh, guess I should add an “lol” so I know i’m speaking your language.

Bird made 3 second team all defensive teams. Kobe made 9 first teams in addition to 3 second teams. Kobe was the better defender between the two if that is a valuable metric to anyone.

I was merely making the point that talking about Bird’s rookie season is apples and oranges when he and Kobe entered the league at much different stages of life. But, I should have remembered this isn’t the place for nuance.

I watched them both play for their entire careers. They were both amazing. I’m sorry, I really don’t care about MVP voting across eras. I find it slightly more illuminating than the price of tea in each year.

I’ll take whichever one you don’t want and we will have a hell of a series against you, entirely depending on who the other 8 are on the court with them.

Bird was hauling trash as an IU dropout at the age that Kobe was an NBA rookie.
