    Kobe Is Sick!

    I'm listening to the Lakers game right now. He's got 55 with 5+ minutes left to go in the 4th.

    He's the 4th player in NBA history to score 50+ in three straight games. He's probably going to get 60, so he'll have done that twice in a week.

    Sick, just sick.

    Where was he all year when I needed him?

    I honestly think Philip and Kobe agreed that he would "work within the triangle" until there was no choice but to win any way possible.

    I mean, how many games this year did Kobe go into the last 5 minutes of the 1st half with 4 or 5 points?

    Sure he had some assists, but it didn't make much sense then or now.

    Nice to see that his knee is better.

    What was that Phil quote early in the year...something about Kobe never going to be the player he was above the rim?

    Hilarious. Classic Phillup

    His knee really was a mess earlier. He's the most explosive offensive player in the league even with a knee that's 80%.

    I really like his competitiveness.

    For me, there are a few that compete like no others:

    Kobe, Nash, Wade, Dirk, Lebron

    Guys like Arenas can have a good night but lack that intangible quality, well not intangible, but character.

    Arenas is nothing more than another Vince Carter. To talk about him for MVP is laughable

    I would say, based on the last 2 months or so that that would go to Amare or Lebron.

    What about all this happening right after Phil takes one for Kobe with his "Witch-hunt" comments and knowing he would be fined by the league?

    Maybe Kobe is inspired by someone...anyone showing him some support.

    Discuss!

    Possibly. But definitely not the best guy in the game.

    Who cares?

    I like guys like Nash (humanitarian and all) but this is about being a champion on the court.

    Kobe is an assassin

    To who?

    He did that all year and where did that get him?

    They were about to miss the playoffs without Kobe's effort.

    He played within the triangle long enough.

    I watched games this year and I couldn't believe how unselfish Kobe was.

    It got them nowhere - especially when they had injury problems.

    He should shoot 25-30 shots every night

    Well, play harder and man up, basically.

    This isn't high school where the B team makes sure everyone gets to play and take shots.

    Man up and ball or give the rock to someone who can.

    The Lakers need better players. Odom is Ok, but hurt. Luke is a good sixth man. Bynum might be good one day.

    Every one else blows

    Seriously here folks,

    Kobe is a special player because of his ability to do it 20 different ways...outside and inside.

    Whatever they give him, he takes and kills you.

    What I would LOVE to see, is once Cleveland clinches, for Mike Brown to tell Lebron...score 100.

    He WON'T shoot from the outside but four or five times a game. What he can do, is take the ball to the hoop one on one, two, three, four or five...score...

    and get fouled.

    Equally impressive...

    When Lebron is going through his hateful phase, he can't be stopped. He does whatever he wants.

    Kobe, does whatever is there, each time down the court.

    Where they differ is on defense...but Lebron is young yet...

    There are times when Lebron is sky high...coming down the lane. Even if they had someone on their shoulders he would dunk over both of them. A bit of hyperbole, to be sure, but not too much.

    I saw an incredible dunk from Lebron OVER Duncan. No idea when that was from. I saw it last night on some best of Dunks.

    He can physically do things that remind me of Michael...in that he is different than anyone else in the league.

    How about his outside shooting? Pretty impressive.

    I saw him make a move this week, and I gotta tell you, it was Erving. It was eerie, the way he glided to the hoop...

    I've seen games where he's looked like Magic...

    and of all the greats, when he dunks, 9 times out of ten, he's Dom Wilkins...the power...the follow up.

    He's overpowering...

    his outside shooting is hit and miss...nothing like Kobe.

    All I am saying is it takes more than all-world talent to win championships.

    The league is full of guys with mad skills, that lack the ability to think of the big picture.

    Do you really think Michael wanted to put up with the headache that was Rodman?

    Enough to win, that is for sure.

    Hard to critisize Kobe, but when comparing apples to apples, his leagacy thus far is a bit bruised. (and that has nothing to do with off-court stuff)

    All I know is before he was a "ball hog" they lost 7 or 8 in a row and were in danger of missing the playoffs.

    His shooting % is killer (non Iverson like) and they have won 6 in a row.

    How is this a bad thing? No one else on the team can score.

    Kobe and Phil know there is no other way.
