thats fucked up

[timvp]

Looks to me like he was just trying to crab dribble.

[DAF86]

Yes he is.

[redzero]

Is a man not entitled to elbow or knee somebody else in the face?

[Roxsfan]

Fucking asshole.

[TMAC-YAO-ARTEST]

that just shows you kobe has no integrity.

[E20]

Is a man not entitled to elbow or knee somebody else in the face?

lol good one.

[Halberto]

If this were Bruce Bowen, it would be an instant suspension



I'm sure Kobe wont get more than a fine for it, even though its blatant

[flipcritic]

Obviously, the thread starter has played a lot of basketball.

[Cry Havoc]

I hope Battier continues to destroy Kobe in this series.

[The Franchise]

Hey, he will dive on the floor after at least one more loose ball in this series. When he does whoever goes with him should lead with the knees. :lol

[Hemotivo]

unnecessary

[spursncowboys]

That wasn't Kobe. That was Ariza. That was dirty-typical Lakers. Also Sasha's elbow was cheap Euro style dirty play.

[ElNono]

Please tell me Sasha ain't getting away with the constant hand check for the rest of the series? As much as Lakers homies bitch about the officiating, Vijabitch was fouling Von Wafer almost every possession and there was no whistle blown.

[sribb43]

Kobe is nothing without Shaq

[florige]

Bowen would had been blasted had he done something that blatent. Def a suspension for a game.

[florige]

Hey, he will dive on the floor after at least one more loose ball in this series. When he does whoever goes with him should lead with the knees. :lol



I wish Battier would had pulled a Chris Paul after Kobe pulled that weak crap.

[DaDakota]

I wonder if the League will suspend him for game 2?

DD

[Hemotivo]

I wonder if the League will suspend him for game 2?

DD

no way

[Imposter Cleaner]

Yeah Kobe is a bitch and so is his mom. Before the game began, he heard his MVP title got stolen by Lebron, I think thats the main issue that pissed him off. After all Battier didn't play a good defense on him last night, nor did Ron Artest.

[Armando]

I wonder if the League will suspend him for game 2?

DD



Keep wondering ain't going to happen.

[robbie380]

Obviously, the thread starter has played a lot of basketball.

let me guess...you play like a chump too when you are getting beat?

what the hell does elbowing someone in the back of the head when they are getting up have to do with playing basketball?

[stretch]

i remember seeing that last night. i was hoping they would show another replay. what a faggot

[resistanze]

Check it
You know how I be
Last week, Kobe couldn't do with me.

[bdictjames]

No Lakers fans justifying the case?

[UltimA]

If this were Bruce Bowen, it would be an instant suspension



I'm sure Kobe wont get more than a fine for it, even though its blatantIt's just funny, because he wouldn't do that to Bowen.

[TheProfessor]

Embarrassing. Not to mention he's letting Battier get in his head.

[Banzai]

Lakers lose and bitching still continues..besides Laker fans of course.

[Matchman]

No Lakers fans justifying the case?

is there even a way to justify an elbow after Battier stuff Kobe's shot right in his face :lol?

[TheProfessor]

You must have missed DrHouse's epic sob-fest.

ya cuz people dont use there knees to get up. Probably hard to keep balance when the guy under you is trying to rise up too. =P

[hater]

Kobe is just choking like he usually does postseason. nothing new here

[anonoftheinternets]

kobe = bitch .. no one is suprised other than bspn

I'll justify it. Dont just look at the elbow and knee. Look at the overall picture. Kobe is on top of Shane. Kobe needs to use his knee to stand up. He did, but it hits Shane in the face by accident. Then you see Kobe try to stand up using that same knee. Shane then starts to rise up with Kobe still on him. Kobe falls forward and his elbow lands on Shanes head. Look at the whole altercation. Its obvious there was a loss of balance in Kobe's part when Shane pushed off the ground.

In fact, Battier should be suspended.

You shouldn't get up that fast with someone's knee up your nose.

I have no interest in either team but to justify Kobe in this case is simply pathetic.

Ever watch a normal game when opposing players get tangled up on the ground? They get up slow and slowly untangle themselves while teammates help out.

Kobe knew full well what he was doing. Battier/Artest were guarding Kobe all night and it was his way to get a cheap shot in.

These are world class athletes and these guys know exactly what they're doing. They just don't haphazardly throw limbs around.

Watch the replay in normal speed when its not focused on just the elbow and knee. Kobe was trying to just get up and Shane tried to get up too. If you say people should entangle themselve slowly, why is Shane trying to get up while a dude is still on top of him? You htink the guy on top is goign to keep riding him?

Reactions say a lot. Did Kobe walked over and say 'Oops'?... no, he went right next to Shane at the other end and started to talk shit to him...

Kobe was definitely dirty for that, but I do think the slow motion makes it look worse than it was.

If the guy on top just kneed you in the face, aren't you going to try to get him off of you and get up?

I saw it at normal speed and it looked pretty dirty.

The elbow is arguable because it does appear that Kobe did lose balance. But, the knee is not. Slow motion, real time, whatever. The knee was a message. Subtle enough not to get a tech, but pretty obvious it wasn't accidental. Plus Battier doesn't bitch about shit like that. Kobe was dirty on that play. Period.

fine...i just think you need to get footing if you want to get off of someone. Maybe he should just stay on top of him nexttime.

Yes, and Kobe needed to contact his knee with Battier's head to get footing.

I can't blame you for being a blind homer, but just shut up. Really. There's not a single non-laker fan who's going to agree with you on this because the objective viewpoint here will prevail.

:lol it's more obvious than the gif. In fact, Kobe knees him TWICE, and it's so obvious that he didn't need to knee that far at Battier's face to get up.

Dirty motherf***er

If the Kobe kids find that video they'll swarm it.

I can see why some Kobe fans are fooled...I think Kobe Bryant is a dick by second-nature -- Kobe gets up in the same fashion as his "unnatural basketball act"/follow-through that he does when he gets his shot blocked.

[Spursfan092120]

looks like he got a knee to the face too...

You think Battier is going to let Kobe knee him ON PURPOSE and just lay there? After he got knee'd by Kobe, Battier got up quick to protest while Kobe laid an additional elbow to keep him down.

Dirty.

[sook]

what happened was Battier took the ball away i think and then they ended up calling foul on kobe or jumpball. Kobe didn't give up on the play and i specifically remember how pissed off i was when he did that. It just didn't look natural, he seemed chippy and just wanted to take his anger out that way.


If you think its nothing, Doug Collins specifically said right when that happened, i like kobe but no need for that, then he threw something about Jordan in there i can't remember.

HAHAHAHA Apparently, not only does kobe's follow through on his shot include a protruding elbow which happens to elbow people, even the follow through when he stands up including having to squat twice before he actually does get up. I wouldn't be surprised if kobe purposely tried to charlie horse yao ming in the thigh even though it hit the knee too!

[cobbler]

What a bunch of pussies you all are and you have probably never played the game at any high level. Yes, Kobe was roughing him up a bit. Just like all players do in the playoffs. If you honestly think he was trying to knee him in the face and throw the elbow then I say it again, what a bunch of pussies. If he was really trying to knee him in the face... Battier whould have been knocked out. Get real. Shane also would have come right back at him. Kobe was off balance. Shane was getting up, Kobe was making it difficult and laying on some weight... nothing more. Happens all the time. Get over it.

[DPG21920]

Shhhhh, girl.

[Killakobe81]

is there even a way to justify an elbow after Battier stuff Kobe's shot right in his face :lol?

If you actually watched the game it was a pass ...good defense by Battier and just some physical play you guys that are whining are a bunch of pussies
Artest, Bowen, Kmart, Terry, Verajao, Melo, Rondo Perkins and Bibby have all done the same or worse at times in their careers and some of it this playoffs quit whining the league is going soft 15 years ago that was just playoff basketball now you want suspensions ...sissies!!!

[The Third Man]

What was most awesome about that play was that Battier walked away smiling. He knew he got into Kobe's head. The only chance for the Rockets to win is for Kobe go 1 on 5. Shane's knows his shit out there.

[TampaDude]

Doesn't matter what happened in that video...Kobe is still a bitch... :lol

[KSeal]

I wish Gasol would knee and elbow someone in the face, the Lakers need more of that. They're the same bunch of pussies they were last year. I hope Kobe keeps being a "bitch" and the rest of the team follows his lead. This team needs to play like dirty punks or their asses will be done in a matter of days.

No, they just need to man up, play smart and at least look like the give a damn about defense. You don't need to be dirty to be tough.

Yeah but they can't play tough, they proved that last year and proved it all year this year so now the only option is to play like dirty pricks, that's all they can do at this point and that's a million times better then playing like soft bleeding vaginas, which seem to be the only way they know how to play specifically Pau.

Shane Battier was bad ass that entire game

Played some awesome D on Kobe, blood streaming down his face, gettin in Kobe's head.

He reminded me of 2005 Bruce Bowen.

[Hemotivo]

Battier sets the tone for these Rockets, as much in the locker room as on the court. After Lakers guard Sasha Vujacic cracked him with an elbow, Battier walked off the floor with blood streaming down his face. He needed four stitches to close the gash over his eye. Earlier, Bryant had tried to hogtie him during a scramble for the ball.
