What Kobe really meant: I'm going to jack 8 more per game now
@ESPNSteinLine: Kobe Bryant postgame on what addition of Ramon Sessions' playmaking means for the Lakers: "I can be a legitimate 2-guard now."fisher is probably off somewhere crying his massive ass off.

Kobe is a SF at this point of his career but can't guard bigger guys so needs big brother Artest around
It's true. Scottie Sessions is taking a load off of Kobe. He doesn't have to facilitate and score as much. I'm hoping tonight is the beginning of a more efficient offense. 58% against the Mavs on the road was nice to see.![]()
Before you get too excited, the Mavs will have the worst defense in the playoffs. Yes, even NYK
Lakers are 2-2 since signing Ramon... largely because of the chuckster...
Frankly, Kobe is chasing records, so I don't buy for a minute that he doesn't have to "score as much"
The guards & small forwards are complete trash. So I get where he's coming from at times
tee, hee.
Overhype.
It's just one good game for Session since he came.
Not really when you consider what they had at PG before Sessions. It's a huge upgrade in talent level.
It will be an adjustment for Kobe - no doubt. Scottie Sessions had a +28 off the bench with 9 dimes. So he was running the offense.
There will be an adjustment period no doubt. I know it's a short sample size, but Lakers haven't had a PG play like this since NVE. With KGB out there, he's going to be free to put pressure on the defense with his speed. I'm cautiously excited about this dude.
What I think:![]()
Hope Session can contribute more than what Fisher had done for the Lakers.![]()
It's not about what Fisher had done, but what Fisher is now.
Can't wait to see the Lakers put TD in a high P&R situation...with... Wait for it...6'3" Blair (or the Red Rocket) protecting the rim!translation: 2 points for Scottie Sessions!

He leaves a trainwreck to go to a le contender and he's crying?
his boy kobe has forgotten him already
fisher definitely found a good situation. that young team desperately needed some old fart wisdom.
Kobe Bryant is a sly devil - on the one hand he gleefully texted and embraces very openly the Gasol and Odom trade that for minutes brought Paul then a few months later he blasts management for trying to trade Gasol - with Kobe loyalty only goes to seeking adulation that sadly so many embrace for this over-ranked gunner.
. Everyone will have to adjust...but it will affect Bynum the most...Kobe will still eat first...then Bynum, Gasol, and Sessions will fight over remaining table scraps...
But this Sessions kid looking dam good. I want to see how he does against The Spurs teammate wife er....but I'm impressed and I was clearly wrong about this Kid...there is no comparison to Sessions and Blake....I can't believe I was so wrong about Sessions...he's making me giddy like a little white when Kool enters the bedroom...![]()
To be fair, the Mavs were missing 3 of their top 4 defensive players..
Kobe just beat up on ST-DWade and Le_Head_Band....imagine what he's gonna do now that he has a point to facilitate...I feel sorry for ST-DWade and Le_Head_Band....
