He needs to adjust his game for the playoffs, otherwise the Lakers will be very vulnerable. He did it during the 3 titles in a row, but I'm worried he won't do it now. Shaq was a dominant player + personality, there's no one like him in the Lakers right now.

In fairness to Kobe, he did it last year as well playing a perfect game (by his standards) by averaging 30 points and 7 assists in the finals. I think Kobe has always shown that come playoff time he will adjust.


I do want to say though that the Lakers are a much active team defensively without Kobe. Offensively they move the ball without him either. Payoff however is that their guards are not good enough to make sure the offense is run efficiently due to their shooting woes.
