No Nash today for the Suns.

He admired him so much that when Magic advised Kobe to go out and have a drink with the guys to build comaraderie, Kobe said, "Thats the most stupid thing anyone has ever told me."

Kobe will go down as one of the top 5 greatest scorers, but he will never be remembered as a great leader because he never learned how to follow.

Sorry but I dont think Magic is the ideal guys to be giving dudes social advice.

[DrHouse]

Oh please spare me the Kobe bashing. You all love to do this when the Lakers lose, LAKER fans included. He's an easy scape goat.

Kobe Bryant will pass you the ball if YOU SHOW YOU WANT THE BALL. None of his teammates came to play outside of Gasol. I don't blame Kobe at all. I blame the head coach who decided not to run a single high P&R on Shaq when he had 5 ing fouls. These last two losses fall squarely on the inability of Phil Jackson to devise a proper gameplan.

It's a damn good thing BOS and CLE are losing games too right now.

I didn't catch the game, where the presenters all over the Shaq/Kobe reuninon thing?

Big time



That is getting old (and I'm not just talking about Shaq)

Of the 16 games played this past week by LA, Boston, Cleveland and Orlando, 11 were on the road (including tonight's Cavaliers game @ Atlanta.) None of the teams are 100 percent health-wise, not even close.

This was bound to be a tough week all around.

Its almost like they are trying to force a ing reunion between two guys who couldnt stand each other.

My thoughts exactly

Medias: " Lakers, please bring Shaq back in L.A ! "

Suns guaranteed to make the playoffs as the 8th seed to ensure a Kobe vs Shaq matchup. Stern himself probably fired Porter because he messed up the chance of Shaq vs. Kobe in the conference finals.

It's not gonna happen, but if the Lakers did have shaq, they'd easily be the most dominant team in the NBA.

[pauls931]

You're laughing but he's furious with Spurs vs Lakers.... His only chance it to make sure it's Lakers vs Cavs in the finals since boston is out of style now.

[IronMexican]

Not as pissed at Friday's loss. I'm not really pissed at all.

[peskypesky]

Magic gave him perfect advice, thats if you want to lead men. You have to be one of the guys if want to lead them. Not only that, Kobe faked this squeeky clean image before the rape case, but if he had gone out and publicly chased a few skirts, and got his hands dirty a little bit, no one would judge him.

Kobe tried to pretend he was morally better than everyone by getting married and pretending ot be loyal. Magic, Shaq, and even Jordan were married, and when they got caught doing dirt, people could relate and understand. People dont understand perfect people.

Then how do you explain Tim Duncan leading his team to 4 Championships?

Except the Beatles can actually play defense.

None of the Beatles had 34 cowlicks in their hair.

Wrong. If the Spurs had Shaq, they'd be the most dominant team in the NBA.
