I founs it ok, but nothing like hearing Stu Lantz for me.

[TheNextGen]

i love the Raptors Broadcast! It was funny hearing the color guy making fun of the Lakers (when they were down) while the other dude was like "still alot of time left in the ball game"

[angelbelow]

actually, you said too much...you should have just stated the facts without mentioning the center part (which practically went against your case).

good point but still this is a 7 footer were talking about. kobes 81 is impressive but far from a complete domination of a game. robinson had a complete monster game and kobe had a bad ass offensive game.

i agree, though, its hard to expect more rebounding, blocks, etc from a shooting guard compared to a center.

[DANILO DRASKOVIC]

what I find really impressive is that it took Kobe to get 41 in 3 and a half quarter...then he got another 40 in only 18 minutes.

i agree. he put on a hell of a show that night.

[z0sa]

As much as I dislike Kobe's personality, to call him a flat out scorer is understatement of the decade.

Less points than in the other games, but IMHO, his best game to date.
He didn't force things and was totally in control.
The only time you could ever compare him to Jordan.

I agree, I live in Canada, and that Chuck guy is annoying. :bang:bang
He must drink too much coffee

I have ESPN Classic Canada, and they are showing the 81 pts game as well, and it's the Raptors broadcast :depressed

That's Chuck something.
He is fucking annoying

I disagree. The best game I've ever seen out of Bryant against the Spurs was game 4 of the 2004 series. Dropping 44 on Bowen is a lot different than scoring 45 on Antonio Daniels and Jerome Kersey. Our team sucked in '01, but the '04 Spurs were a legit championship team that should have at least made the Finals. The Lakers were dying in that game, they were down 10 at the half, and looking at going down 3-1 with the next game in SA. Had Bryant not gone nuts the second half of that game, there's a pretty good chance we get the repeat in 04.

I didn't watch the 2004 game 4 :D

But that sick Kobe follow his own shot tip dunk on DRob and Timmy was sick (plus, Elliott was playing him tight when he took the initial shot)

The Laker strategy after game 2 was to collapse on Duncan and Parker. One was always double teamed. SA got a lot of open three pointers to get an early lead in game 4, then the strategy worked the rest of the way.

[Lakers_55]

Oh, and I think Detroit would have beaten anyone in 2004. The late season acquisition of Rasheed Wallace was pivotal.

According to most Lakerfans, Detroit won the title only because Chauncey Billups got a lot of free throws.

[KobeOwnsBowen]

Whatever game it was, Kobe is indeed a god. Bow to his greatness.

Hmm... wasn't aware of that lame excuse. Rasheed played very well when he hit MoTown and the team clicked on all cylinders.

Yep.

But where is the famous tip dunk ???

[TheMACHINE]

According to most Lakerfans, Detroit won the title only because Chauncey Billups got a lot of free throws.

First time I heard that excuse. Only excuse i heard from us Lakers fans is that Karl malone wasnt playing. I dont even remember Billups shooting much free throws. You might have lakers fans confused with Mavs Fans and Billups confused with Wade...LOL

I take it you've never heard of lakersground then? Or lived in LA?

You're an idiot.

[LakeShow]

I can't say I've heard that excuse either. Most of the fans I spoke to admitted to Billups totally dominating Payton.

I have to say the 2001 playoff game vs. the Spurs was Kobe's finest moments as a player, imo. He was just as Shaq described his performance that game,..Phenomenal!

[TheNextGen]

I take it you've never heard of lakersground then? Or lived in LA?

we all hear excuses..that one...not to populor i guess

[1Parker1]

Impressive game no doubt. Now if only he could have managed to score half of that in the 08 NBA Finals....

[baseline bum]

You're an idiot.

Kobe's a douche, but he's a great player. I have lots of Suns games too...

"he was just on fire" - that's all the guy had to say? dude got 81 on your team...on fire is getting 40 points...get 2 x 40 + 1 = more then on fire...kobe literally had an epic night!

I cant belive people actually try and discredit Kobe's 81pt game.

[Allanon]

Anybody that discredits Kobe's 81 point game is just a hater...that was pure basketball brilliance.

There's room enough to go around for DRob's 71 points, Wilt's 100, Kobe's 81.

Kobe, Shaq and Duncan are the 3 most dominant players of this era and we've been blessed in being able to watch all of them dominate in their prime.

It has also been great watching Vince Carter, The Admiral, AI, Grant Hill in his prime, Chris Webber in early 2000's, Reggie Miller...and I'm probably missing a bunch
