This is total bull .
I'm always amazed by how naive the national media seem to be. Kobe's writer producer director and star of his own version of Hoosiers.
Shut the up.
Make that, "LA will build from this." The Lakers didn't play their best basketball. They didn't play their game. The Spurs imposed themselves on the Lakers, gave them their best shot. The Lakers went down and took 8 counts. Came back and knocked out the champs. I know Spurs fans are not worried. While the game was agonizing to watch to the end, Kobe and the Lakers didn't really look like they were worried. Kobe looked like the Lakers will win when the game was over. He was right!!!![]()

The Lakers didnt win the game, the Spurs lost it. Lakers will lose game 2, no way in will the Spurs let that game slip away. They got everyone in check until the offense sputtered.
What a bunch of BS. LA needs to get over itself. I guess TMac was just playing games with us when he scored 13 points in 20 seconds too.
This was not the spurs best shot. Your lakers only scored 89 points. If the spurs hadn't blown it from the 3 and if they shot a better percentage from the field in the 2nd half the score would have been more like 100 89 spurs.
Don't get too comfortable. This won't happen again
Looks like he had an extra dose of Kobe's that afternoon.
Good thing Kobe saved plenty for the Spurs to take last night.
Wow, tough loss last night? Oh well, get used to it.
It's Kobe time!![]()
KOBE! KOBE! KOBE! KOBE! (come on...join the fun and say it with me)...KOBE! KOBE! KOBE! KOBE! KOBE! KOBE!
I was refering to the article genius.
You know, the topic of this thread.
What's it like 8:24 in the morning in LA. First thing in the morning you log into spurstalk.com to trolll?
What a spaz
Lakers also scored 44 points in the final 18 minutes. That's a 117 point pace.
If Kobe starts the game aggressive, the Lakers would have scored more.
Same type of thing as your "if the spurs" scenario.

OH well if thats true, then your 4 rings dont mean than do they? or does the FIXED part only apply to the lakers?
God what true MYOPIA....![]()
I'm not just pulling hope out of my ass dude. Based on averages.
You'll see
Your alright, thats funny.![]()
I would have to agree with this AKA character......
The lakers are the not the lakers you beat in previous years....this team is deeper than yours, both starting 5 and bench and they have true brotherhood and trust, I am not a fan and can see this......Cant you? or are your MYOPIC lenses clouding your judgement........Your team is old, their window is shutting, face it, know it, accept it.....One more year and this team will be playoff fodder, barely making it in only to get run by every other improved younger team in the West.....
When this laker team suits up next season with the following...
BYNUM
GASOL
ODOM
BRYANT
FISHER
LOL, you are talking back to back championships there, I can admit it, why cant you losers?
What a night, American Idol finishing up at the same time the LALA's take game one.....200 ft apart from each other.......Nokia and Staples Center...
Only in LA![]()
Bowen did a good job on Kobe last night and Kobe willed a comeback, but it was also a team effort. Thats what I enjoyed. It wasn't Kobe panicking and jacking up all kinds of shots.
FYI......it's "you're" not "your" (I feel compelled to save you from further embbarrassment).
Kobe ignited the comeback, but it was a complete team effort.
If Kobe stays aggressive there is no way the Lakers are ever in a 20pt hole like that. Game 1 was all about feeling out what will work against the Spur's defense. We now know that the interior game between Odom and Gasol is going to get shutdown, Kobe must be aggressive to open up those lanes for everyone else.
Kobe had a great game, but this was far more about the Spurs' collapse than anything Kobe did.
God, this is so f'ing frustrating. Spurs were annihilating them and now we have to hear from all of the writers who have had Kobe's in their mouth the entire playoffs!![]()
Drugs are frying your brain.
So why wasn't Kobe aggressive from the start?
Several reasons:
1. He wanted to instill confidence in his teammates by going to them early, especially Gasol, Vujacic, and Farmar.
2. He was making a lot of the right plays, making mostly good passes for better shots.
3. He has a hero complex and wanted to make it dramatic because he's a ing .
Can't disagree... Kobe is the best player on the planet -- no question and I hate that dude. He trumps anything the Spurs have to offer. I still think Duncan will have a big series and it is possible the Spurs can still win the series if they can hit perimeter shots in the 4th quarter when the double teams come. Most likely when the double teams come - the Spurs will go into the 1 - 4 set with Ginobili going to the basket -- hopefully he plays better and makes the right decisions.
On a side note -- I have no fear of the Lakers line-up next year and I am tired of hearing about it.
Fisher
Bryant
Odom
Gasol
Bynum
That does not strike fear... not at all. I still want to see how Bynum and Gasol will function on the floor together. I just don't see it-- both too slow and how will they defend ? Are you telling me Pau Gasol is going to guard some of the 4's in this league and be effective ?
If we had a healthy Bynum right now it would be a sweep. No way a double double guy and a good defender wouldn't help right now. No more Parker running around in the paint and no more Duncan over Gasol.
Excuses. Excuses. Excuses.
