and all they wanted to highlight and talk about was Kobe and his 34 points. Kobe scored 34 points! look at that fancy trick shot he just drilled!!!
ignore the fact that he was in the minus on the +/- stat for his team, ignore the fact that he chucked the ball 25 times shooting his usual well below .500, ignore the fact that he was given 12 freebie attempts (8 of which were completely bogus phantom calls), ignore the fact that he turned the ball over 3 times in crucial moments .... but most importantly ....
IGNORE the fact that Andrew Bynum put up 37 points and 16 rebounds all the while shooting 83% and a +11 for his team in the +/- stat. son by the way they were campaigning for Kobe, you wouldn't even know Bynum played tonight.
