No he hasn't. He still has alot of games where he goes off on a shooting spree without even looking to pass the ball. A lot of those times he is just trying to find his shot, not on a hot streak.


I have confidence he will make the right plays in game 7 but if he doesn't, you have to accept the good with the bad.

He was forcing in game 3 and they were fortunate that Allen went 0/13.

You gotta hope he doesn't go into "I gotta show everyone I am the best player on this team and I have to win the game" mode.

Nah, Kobe is just predictable.

He wants to win on his terms. It's always been that way.

I just know Kobe Bryant. If you've watched literally his entire career like I have, you'd know this was coming. Thank goodness we still won.

Sorry for being right, because he DID try to do it. I'm just happy we won... so screw it!
