Kobe does go on tilt though. That's the one thing I hate about him.


By tilt you mean after he loses he comes back and owns shit up??

No, I mean he'll have a shitty shooting game and tilt and want to just keep taking contested double teamed shots instead of getting his teammates involved. He doesn't do it as much anymore and he has become a great team player, but I'm just saying.

interesting (2nd hand) factual information supporting the importance of homecourt advantage to the lakers:
denver slaughtered teams at home after the all star break by an average of 13pts, including a comfortable victory over the lakers (nene and bynum didn't play, and it was a b2b for the lakers admittedly). their only home loss was by 2pts to houston on the 2nd game of a b2b. meanwhile the lakers have gone 10-9 on the road vs mostly mediocre teams

i think if kobe comes out guarding billups they should just sub in jr smith asap, why not? free up billups and force kobe to gaurd smith, they can't have fisher checking him. also i think denver should just have nene or whoever just box out gasol at all costs and not even try to get the rebound. just get under him and push him 3-4 feet away at all times and have melo and the guards help on the boards, if they stop the 2nd chance points they're on the road to negating one of the lakers key advantages. although idk if that would fuck up their offense too much with the game being slowed down. melo def looked good starting from the post in gm1 but it's something they could try if gasol kills them again

if i was a lakers fan i'd be praying that bynum gets going too, he could create big problems. the lakers always look so much better when he has a good game

BTW, I expect 30+ from Chauncey and either Carmelo or JR tonight, depending on if the Lakers start doubling Carmelo. You know Chauncey is pissed having those free throws be the difference in the game..

it will be a challenge for chauncey to get 30+ if kobe guards him though. not sure what the laker defensive assignments will be tonight

huge mistake with the three, lebron could have just went in for the dunk to tie it up

that was probably the intended play (especially with howard out) but it seemed like something went wrong near the basket. not too sure but i doubt they meant to shoot a three...


i just watched the replay of that play and lebron was right under the rim, its an easy dunk with a high chance of a 3 point play

No, Kobe often has the same problem where his team mates don't provide the energy.
However, we usually don't see this from Lebron. When he took a lot of those shots, he didn't have guys wide open saying, 'GIMME DA BALL'. They sat around and didn't run around the floor trying to create a play.



I'm really not a big Kobe fan, but in that clip, Lamar Odom and Brian Cook gestulating from behind the 3point line is ridiculous

Rediculous.

It looked really risky though for a block, i mean delonte west was WIDE open it's all you can ask for when the game is on the line too.
Ya well, at least I don't fuck a fleshlight with a condom on and cry at the same time.

I wonder if he wanted to do that. The special article on billups described that as his frustration play due to a lack of an inbouds pass play.

So i know that Dhantay Jones had 4 eary fouls.

Who's doing the defensive damage on Kobe?

JR? Or is it Kobe himself?
