LA Lakers legend Kobe Bryant has been named to the third team of the 2010s NBA All-Decade team — and there are plenty of hot takes.
What We Know:
Hahahahahaha this is such a joke. Blake Griffin?! Carmelo Anthony?! They're both great players, but second team all decade? Above KOBE?! Delusional. #NBA https://t.co/TlR26gIv6M

- Some fans are stating that due to the injuries the player faced throughout his career (including a terrible Achilles tear), he was not able to play at his absolute best during the decade.
- However, other people see this as the NBA being gracious that despite the injuries and no play time, he made the team at all.
- Overall, it seems that people are having mixed feelings about Kobe’s placement — and he is not the only player being examined closely. Truly, every player has had their fair share of critics and supporters but the status of being as iconic as Kobe has made this national news.
Despite the ranking, shout out to Kobe and all of his achievements!
