Kobe Expects His Scoring To Increase When Nash Returns

[Ace]

Kobe Bryant is leading the NBA in scoring with 26.9 points per game.


But Bryant believes his scoring will increase when Steve Nash returns from injury. Bryant is currently averaging 5.1 assists per game.


"I've been doing this my whole career, and some nights my teammates hit more shots and that adds up to more assists for me," Bryant said. "The games we win are when the whole team is making shots. Now, if our shots aren't going in, then I have to take more of the offensive load."


Nash will be reevaluated next week.


"I'll be scoring a lot more when Nash gets back," Bryant said. "I won't have to facilitate as much, and it will allow me to do what I do best — and that's put the ball in the hole."

Pathetic selfish prick :lmao

"I'll be scoring a lot more when Nash gets back," Bryant said. "I won't have to facilitate as much, and it will allow me to do what I do best — and that's put the ball in the hole."

[Clipper Nation]

"I'll be chucking a lot more when Nash gets back," Bryant said. "Nash won't get to facilitate at all, and it will allow me to do what I do best — and that's fling the ball at the rim."

Heres the question: Would Kobe accept playing 25min/game and only score 15ppg if it meant another ring? I think maybe not.

[Venti Quattro]

It's because Nash becomes the primary facilitator once he returns...

Really! Woah! :wow

Yeah but Nash will facilitate for everyone. Howard will be getting a lot more than the 4 FGA he's getting with Kobe running things.

Kobes shot attempts will go down and everyone elses will go up. Nash would rather give Meeks an open jumper than Kobe a contested one.

[purplengold]

he prolly will score more in that he gon be more efficient. he already efficient tho so I'm hopin he think he gon shoot 55% instead of 55 times

[baseline bum]

What a bunch of crap; what Kobe does best is miss the playoffs in his prime.

[Riddler]

:lol Kobe goin into playoff mode early.

[Malik Hairston]

Really! Woah! :wow

:lol:lol:lol..

[Venti Quattro]

Really! Woah! :wow

crofl :lol

[irishock]

Kobe has had a very efficient year so far. No reason why he shouldn't take even more shots.

"I'll be scoring a lot more when Nash gets back," Bryant said. "I won't have to facilitate as much, and it will allow me to do what I do best — and that's commit heinous acts of sexual assault on unsuspecting white women"

[purplengold]

^she gotta 10 types of semen in her panties, only heinous act be gettin sloppy 6ths or somtin

Lakers will play at an increased pace when Nash returns. Everyone's scoring will go up.

^Trying harder than anyone here and failing miserably.

[Brazil]

So Kobe is that dumb, when Nash return his main focus will be to give more touches to Dwight. Kobe is scoring like crazy because Pau and Dwight are shooting 5 FG per game tbh

[timvp]

Yes, Kobe, because the problem now is D-Ho and Gasol getting too many shots.

:lol that deserves a Dr. Evil laugh

[CavsSuperFan]

That’s what is so exceptional about Kobe…No matter how many baskets he misses, he just keeps shooting…Got to respect a player who never quits trying…

Stupidity is abundant in this thread.

[gee]

What did you expect when you clicked on the title?

[z0sa]

"Kobe expects his scoring to increase"

Is there ever a time this isn't true?

[HeatChamps]

Kobe is a beast. I believe him. Nash will make him better. But will it be enough? The answer is no. 4 letters can explain why. HEAT!

[DAF86]

This comment just proves my theory that great players suck at analyzing their sport.

Nash's return will mean less touches for Bryant (at least it should but with Kobe you never know), that should mean less shot attempts therefore less pts.

[Latarian Milton]

nash knows n runs _'antonie's system better than anyone else, everyone will score more when he comes back including players of the opposing team

You read the Bible don't you? There's a passage where God says: "Let there be light, and then there was light."

Same thing with Kobe...when he says: " Let there be more Kobe touches." Then you can expect there will be more Kobe touches :toast

No,” he replied. ”I don’t know if I know it all, but I know more than they do.”


Kobe knows all or at least almost all - just ask him. LOL

[Riddler]

Kobe is a sad fellow. No friends. Not even Vanessa.

[JamStone]

Who knows what will happen, but what would you expect Kobe to say? The SOB is cocky about his own ability to the point of delusion. The Lakers could trade for Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, and Kobe would say the same thing about expecting his scoring to go up.

And in this case, Kobe may be right. Nash isn't the same player as he was early on in Phoenix, but if Barbosa can average 18 points and Raja Bell 15 points in this system playing with Nash, a ballhog like Kobe should do plenty of damage considering he'll make sure he gets his touches and shots.

No, I don't. Tbh.
