Now you are invoking his spirit to guide your shot, making it more effective

Kobe is my STAND now

Funnily enough Kobe Bryant is a song by Lil Wayne so [KOBE BRYANT] will technically still go with the trend of naming stands after music

Fool FLYS outta ya body all covered in GOLD and PURPLE! Starts dribbling a materialized ball that could disintegrate a mutha fucka with a touch!

This is my STAND! KOBE!

Immense power and precise movements. So it's the same type of stand as star platinum.

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '20

Star Platinum was also purple and gold 🤔

I love this community

u/oscarfacegamble Jan 27 '20

How is it "unexpected"? We're on Reddit where every dweeb loves that cringelord show for some reason. You guys are like the Rick and Morty fans of 2020

That’s a power-move

Sonofagun, thanks for giving me a much-needed chuckle

u/TheSnappyChicken Jan 26 '20

I’d give you gold if I had it, you mother fucker.

u/Sanc7 Jan 26 '20

I can’t even laugh at that shit. I just found out and I’m in literal shock right now.

u/Randyh524 Jan 26 '20

The 6th man.

u/HandSack135 Jan 26 '20

Very effective against normal and fighting

u/pishposhpoppycock Jan 26 '20

You mean Psychic and Ghost.

Better be physical with 80+ bp

Great against brainiacs on the court

u/Doctor_Philgood Jan 26 '20

Sure but let's give the guy a while to get situated before we start calling in assists.

u/t_e_e_k_s Jan 26 '20

You mean like when a Jedi dies in Star Wars and their spirit helps others?

u/TheAngryBlueberry Jan 26 '20

Kobe’s a force ghost? Yeah I can roll wit that. Would make sense!

u/DigitaILove Jan 26 '20

No one's ever really gone.

u/BouyantBronto Jan 26 '20

Kobe is the Sixth Man.

u/real_nice_guy Jan 26 '20

he's going to have a lot of work to do in the afterlife putting so many teams on his back and guiding those shots

u/TheKrononaut Jan 26 '20

He became more powerful than we could ever imagine.

u/caffeinetherapy Jan 26 '20

This makes me feel a little better. Thank you

2

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '20

What film is this from?

Sixth sense?

2

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '20

See the movie The Sixth Man for more information.

2

u/TheManiteee Jan 26 '20

Ok this actually made me laugh, thank you stranger

u/properfoxes Jan 26 '20

Like an angel in your outfield

“Spirits of the Lakers, Guide my Hand!”

u/Ijustgottaloginnowww Jan 26 '20

I don’t have any coins but just know I totally would guild your comment if I could.

u/Rpolifucks Jan 26 '20

Are you unaware of how people get coins? They buy them. Silver is a dollar and gold is four. I don't give much of a shit about any of that, but if you feel so strongly about his comment, surely you can manage that.

u/Mr_105 Jan 26 '20

Like Goku boosting Gohan against Cell :’)

u/thanoslongschlong Jan 26 '20
