Supporting Casts not Helping 

Post#1 » by The Skyhook » Wed May 27, 2009 6:24 pm

On espn.com Usually I dont like the articles that Hollinger writes because its all stat based but I found this one to be a good read. It has to do with the supporting casts of Kobe and Lebron not stepping up. Hes not using stats as the main point to the article either.

I can't believe they just disappeared like this. I thought last years beating in Boston meant something. I know if I were a player I wouldn't be able to get that out of my head, but I guess now that Boston is eliminated nobody cares about winning the chip.

The cast was great. Pau and Odom really stepped up. Kobe with 8 assists. Good win. Just one more.
