[QUOTE="kg01, post: 119744, member: 11"] Yeah a lot of guys connected with the scene (in whatever capacity) are killing Kobe. I think what 'evidence' like DeCourcy's shows is basically the fact that the US produces more talented players than the international community does. That doesn't disprove what Kobe said necessarily. What if, for example, they started pushing American football abroad and approached it from a more fundamental-focused standpoint. Their tackling mechanics would probably be superior but their overall talent would not. That doesn't mean Americans don't need to re-focus on teaching tackling. The backlash against Kobe IMO is just more anti-Kobe sentiment that's emerging now that he's on the downside of his career. Plus there's a lot of guys that make part of their living covering AAU and have relationships in that community. [/QUOTE]
