You don't need to see any tape, it's pretty jacked up.
I love how you completely steered this on a random tangent that had nothing to do with me. All I said was Kobe's finger injury was overblown. I never said anything about him playing ty or anything else, so good job with your usual bull arguing tactics of steering off on a tangent. I think there are tons of injuries that are overblown trying to make the player look like a hero, I'm not singling Kobe out or anything like he's the first player this happened with.

ROFL where is this "splint" you speak of, and no, I'm not asking why he doesn't have a splint on. You said he was wearing a splint, I'm asking where it is, don't answer a question I didn't ask.
You're making up. When did you say this? Show me which post?
All you did was post a bull video made by some internet dude which I answered with a bunch of appropriate bull videos from random internet dudes too.
You don't see the splint? Are you blind?ROFL where is this "splint" you speak of
No I'm not. Kobe has an "avulsion" fracture on his finger, An injury that almost never requires surgery and usually heels on it's own while not presenting tons of pain while it's heeling. Look it up.
Dude, you are blind...it's right there on his finger.
Kobe Bryant will wear a metal splint on his right index finger during games.

Kobe himself talks about the splint:
“It’s just not strong enough,” Bryant said of the finger, which he said he will now keep splinted again.

Not on his pinkie. You said he's playing with "3 fingers", meaning two different fingers are broken. One of the supposedly "broken" fingers has nothing on it whatsoever. The other finger has tape, not a splint. There's a difference.
Splint:
tape:
Does this finger count as two fingers or something? What is he wearing on this other supposed "broken" finger?
WTF? You've been watching too many conspiracy theories. What do you think is under that tape? A splint. You think the NBA is gonna let players play with exposed metal splints?
It's right there in the article, can you not read? Kobe is wearing a splint.
Kobe tried but failed sans support of finger splint

Well have fun talking about how Dwight Howard was horrible till he turned 24 (which happened a little over a month ago btw), I'm out.
Index finger = Splint.
Pinky finger. Look at the picture of his pinky...does that look normal to you?
Kobe tore the tendon that keeps the fingers together. He said he'd be the old granny with the wierd pinky that can bend backwards.
5-2 = 3 fingered Kobe.
This is just too easy
Next.
Has Kobe shot 46% with the broken finger? I believe that's his % for the season.
Avulsion fracture is not a broken finger. Stop making up Laker fans.
Avulsion fracture's almost never need surgery, they heal on their own.

Soft-tissue injuries are the most common injuries to humans, from the high school level to the pro's, to you and me walking around the earth. EVERYONE GETS THEM, but not everyone makes a big deal about it
Apparently, Kobe's press agents want to play up the finger issue, so they get this ridiculous bandage job on his finger to make it look like he was just out of world war 2.

now, you guys want a TRUE old school warrior?
Caron Butler :
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...101001055.htmlButler revealed that the thumb injury he had late last season was worse than he or the team acknowledged. After hurting the thumb against Boston on April 5, Butler missed five games — all losses — but he returned to help the Wizards end the regular season on a three-game winning streak. At the time, Butler and the team called the injury a thumb “sprain.” In fact, Butler said he broke a bone in the thumb, which is on his shooting hand.
“I didn’t want anyone knowing how bad it was because then guys would have been hacking at it every chance they got,” said Butler, who estimated that the thumb was between 60 and 70 percent strength for the playoff series against Cleveland. “It’s better now, though.” . . .
We never hear of MANY player injuries because they actually don't want to appear weak.
Kobe is a ing pussy.
Tough guys don't ram into smaller players like Mo Williams and then treat everyone who saw it like we are stupid and act like you didn't see him there.
Or try and sneak in cheap shot elbows during a play and then act like you didn't do anything.
Or run to the referees whining for a foul call, after you just ninja elbowed someone.
in before they post : dwade wheelchair, paul pierce pictures.

Yup. I went to an actual game in person. Kobe's not really wearing a splint. If you see it for realz, there is no splint.
All those media reports about Kobe's metal splint is just a bunch of lies.
Stern just added that splint into the television broadcast (like the fake NFL first down line) so people think Kobe's tough.
And Kobe's pinkie isn't messed up either, that's just the normal way for pinky fingers to bend backwards.
Kobe's such a faker.
Damn. Gotta give MiamiHeat props when it comes to reasearching stuff like this.

No , anyways back to the basics...Kobe is nothing more than a volume scorer like I've been saying in this thread and if you look at his FG% this year 2010 it's abysmal, not to mention his ballhogging ways have lead to near career lows in assists although he has offensive weapons all around him. He's definantly not the best SG in the league and I challenge any Laker fan to prove otherwise.
Kobe's shooting 46% this season.
Kobe has his team at 33-11
Kobe's hit 4 of 5 game winning attempts
Beat that.
Kobe has led his team to a 5-5 record their last 10 games. Kobe has allowed the Cavs to beat his ass twice & surpass the Lakers for best record in the league. Kobe has managed to make a "jammed finger" into the biggest injury in the league.
Your right Allanon. MVP! MVP! MVP! MVP!
pointless thread.
Double-up is challenging the Lakerfans regarding "shooting guards". Please stay on topic Walter.
