He's actually worse HH. Way worse.
He is the same player as last year..he has actually played better than last year's playoffs, when you consider the level of compe ion..
Last year, after he won the le, NBA casual fans/Laker fans/NBA people/analysts/coaches continued to hype him up, strictly because he won the le, ignoring his performance..
This year, even though he's virtually the same player, the Lakers have been embarrassed in the 2nd round, and Kobe's stock is going to fall..
Further proves how much of a difference a supporting cast makes, and it further supports the argument that winning is extremely overrated, when making a ranking of players..
No. His ankle is at 50%. He'll about the training staff once he's eliminated.
Bah
It's not easy to 3peat
He does seem to be a bit tired
2008 Olympic games, NBA Finals year after year; it takes a toll on your body
he isnt that bad considering the miles he has logged. the other comparable guys have fallen off the face of the earth: duncan, kg, shaq. what killed the lakers was no 3pt spacing
And remember, Jordan had to take a 2 year break because he was mentally and phisically burned out
+1. You can only force your body to do so much. I think they've said Kobe's played in about 75 playoff games the last 3 seasons combined, which pretty much adds up to an extra season....
And Stern suspended him.
Via @Hoopdata only 3 of Kobe's 65 FGA have come at the rim in this series.
all you need to know.
His father was murdered a month after the three peat.
glorified T-Mac is all is he has ever been
& some insist that MJ's gambling addiction was complicit in that murder.
Left you dead in the ground.
ha, ha.
Some don't bathe.
Gasol couldn't win a single playoff game till Kobe took him in.
Kobe couldn't win a playoff series either...
Lack of depth along with an aging laker's squad is what it comes down to.
Welcome to our spurs dilemma.
Kobe: 2
Daddy: 1
I was just making sure all assholes are checked.
He still couldn't win a playoff series until Gasol and Shaq took him...
Kobe: 2
Daddy: 1
No. Since the divorce:::
Kobe: 2
Daddy: 1
