what game were you watching, his teammates were feeding him over and over, his teammates wanted it for him as much as the fans did and he did.
Ugh all this Kobe love is nausiating. T Park get a hold of yourself and stop ing all over the place.

Kobe is listed as 6'6" and Rose was guarding him and he is listed as 6'8"
Classify it all you want.usually a where were you association is related to a traumatic event, or something earth shaking. the way kobe was jacking up shots is was bound to happen sometime
Sports is engrained (sp) into our society quite a bit, and this is something, that will be seen in the future, as a landmark event.
No one has SNIFFED 100 or Wilt's record.
WIth a more agressive first 2 quarters?? He couldve gotten 101, who knows.
I'm surprised ESPN hasn't been all over this
So, what do you want people to do?Ugh all this Kobe love is nausiating. T Park get a hold of yourself and stop ing all over the place
Make a few stupid Colorado jokes and say "eh hes selfish"
Grow up.
BINGO!!!!!
Like I said before, a win is a win, so I'm happy. And it's fun seeing an amazing performance.
But scoring 81 against the Raptors in January, is a lot different (and less impressive), than a player like Shaq hitting near a quadruple double in the NBA Finals, or hitting 40/20 in important playoffs games against championship caliber teams.
Now whether Lamar asserts himself or not is a matter that needs to be addressed, but we'll never know if Kobe is taking 46 shots in a game. I tell you what...this wouldn't work against the Spurs or Pistons...
They been talking about it for awhile![]()
That is exactly right.its Lamar needing to step up, adidas that shouldnt be a knock on Kobe.
Lamar Odom sometimes goes to Brent Barry purportions on being passive.
sports is ingrained in our society, and it is a landmark event, but it wasn't out of the blue or anything. the last thing i can remember thinking where i was when it happened was the oj verdict. i was in the lobby of my dorm freshman year in college, and it got scary quiet.
Unfortunatly you can't play Toronto everyday.
Your sarcasm meter is broken...
I don't care about the Colorado thing, but I figured in this forum anyone giving that le to a thread was implying something negative.
This 81 point night is awesome to be sure, but 100 is 100. Wilt is still the man. All other high scoring nights will pale in comparison until someone else hits triple digits. Both Wilt and Kobe had average teams around them, and nothing was on the line. If Kobe scores 81 on the Spurs in the playoffs and the Lakers win the game by 15, then yes, I'll be impressed.
It's entertaining to see though. I'm sure it will sell lots of tickets, so more power to him. From what I've seen of the Lakers this year I wouldn't want to be his teammate.
If Lamar, would ask for the ball more, and say let me help, then he prob would get more shots.Now whether Lamar asserts himself or not is a matter that needs to be addressed, but we'll never know if Kobe is taking 46 shots in a game. I tell you what
But since hes continuing the 2 down step out of the way mantra, its only his own fault.
Did Wilt have the caliber of players that Kobe plays against??but 100 is 100. Wilt is still the man
Id love to see what Kobe would do against the piss poor players that Wilt went against when he put up 100.
And I do appreciate a great game, don't get me wrong. Kobe had to turn it on, because the Lakers were down 63 to 49 at halftime. Maybe what is going to happen is that this team is not going to be the "final product", and changes will happen to the team down the road.
I think Adidas and I are thinking alike on this subject.
Kori needs to change your le to Shaq-fan. Kobe has had amazing performances in the Finals and important playoff games. Enjoy this win for what it was - a historic event.
And Lamar has had plenty of chances, he is way too passive. Kobe always starts the game passing the ball, he takes over the game when none of his teammates will hit. Lamar underachieved with the Clippers, the Heat and now the Lakers. He's not Pippen.
Kobe is MVP!
I would hope people would be more adult in Kobe's situation than that.I don't care about the Colorado thing, but I figured in this forum anyone giving that le to a thread was implying something negative.
game 4 vs San Antonio 2004.important playoff games
Comes from Colorado that day, and practically wins the game in the second half.
Kobe isn't MVP. His team is mediocre with a mediocre record.
Looks like Wilt is still the king with 100 points
Hey, I didn't say that Kobe hasn't come up huge in the playoffs, just that there are other players who have worn the purple and gold who have brought it *more*.
He is definitely one of the top players in franchise history, no doubt. I'm just saying that players like Magic, Shaq, and Kareem are probably *better*.
