Would Kobe be a good coach?

[UPRock]

I don't think so, because a coach is supposed to be a COACH, and not getting to the court to shoot the ball in crunch time, like he's going to do.

[Cfrey]

no he can't coach lmao

he doesn't even know whats best for his offense (to give the ball to bynum)

[DragonJaii]

No, he's going to tell his best player to shoot every time and not pass.

[b@llhog24]

No.

Lol imagine him in shooting practice.

how many times would we have seen this thread about jordan back in the day.

to answer the question i would say no

[C-Style]

Coach Kobe is 4-1!

[kobemelo]

lol it'd be cool to have Kobe on the sidelines no doubt. would he be good is anybody's guess though.

[boogie-reke]

He won't pass the other assistant coaches the scouting reports.

[Angelus™]

Dont think he'd have the patience to deal with players who werent performing in the court

Lenny Wiltkins and Larry Bird say hi.

Larry Bird was a coach for only 3 yrs. He already had an established Pacers team from the Larry Brown days of the mid-90's.

I don't think Kobe will be doing much coaching once his playing days are over. I also don't see him building a business empire in the way that magic has. He simply doesn't have the ability to relate to people to make himself a success in either area.

He's likely going to be spending some time broadcasting, and then making money in ventures which don't require a lot of inter-personal cooperation, such as licensing and endorsements. He'll be working the rest of his life to pay his alimony, so he will definitely be kept busy.

Coach Kobe is 4-1!

All of that advice Kobe had was for Bynum, yet Bynum is the one struggling most since Kobe's been sidelined (33-88 37.5% from the floor)... Coach Kobe needs to back off lol.

[Ebbs]

I thought about this too, watching him today he looked like a natural leader. Something I have never seen from him on the court. I don't know his arrogance and general attitude make me want to say no, but who knows. Maybe after he steps back and looks at his career he will be humbled and have a clear head.

Also, I don't think telling/talking/yelling at your teammates on the court is necessarily the hallmark of a player that will make a good coach in the future...

I just can't see it happening.

Kobe yelling at players would be bad? Dude, you have SVG as your pic!
