nobody can play their best all the time.

How do you go from where you are to where you want to be? I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal and you have to be willing to work for it. Jim Valvano

that's the most retarded question I've ever heard anyone ask... there's a reason every single coach in the NBA wants Kobe to take the last second shot. even if he's 0-50 people will shit their pants before they give him an open shot.

so basically the way I see it... Kobe played a perfect 1st quarter, then followed it up by playing the worst 36 minutes of basketball he's played in 3-4 years. really bad, everything he did just seemed OFF. his shot disappeared, his floor spacing seemed bad, he couldn't free himself up on the block, and his ball handling seemed erratic. I don't know how to explain what happened to him other than he literally just played BADLY.

I was watching their attempts at high screen and rolls but it just looked so awkward. it seems the spacing and his positioning were just totally out of wack. it's like at halftime he did LSD and was completely fucked up the rest of the way.

Hilarious box scores. Lakers with 16 defensive rebounds, Orlando with 5 offensive rebounds. Ariza with a team high of 4. And that last possession added like 4 offensive boards to the lakers.

Lakers have to thank Gasol and Odom for being unguardable in the paint.

looking at the overall team stats...
both teams shot the ball extremely well, not much of a disparity from downtown. rebounding and TOs almost identical...so what decided the game?? Free throw shooting. i can't remember the last time the rest of the team shot a better % at the line than kobe.

Man, seemed like the Magic couldn't miss for most of this game. Even Dwight's FTs were going in for the most part. Lakers fans shouldn't feel too bad for losing this one as it's unlikely Orlando will shoot like that in three more games. They were making everything and still barely won.
