I would really like to see Kobe hold off on getting this until he's back at Staples. This is a huge accomplishment. Being the all-time leading scorer of one of the greatest franchises in all of sports is too big of a deal to do in front of a road crowd.
That, and it'll guarantee that he's distributing more while taking smarter shots. We can win easily with him scoring 20-25. If he were smart, he would try to get everyone going early in the event that his offense is needed later.
As for Phil's accomplishment, I couldn't sacrifice a win just for recognition. If we win, then I'd like to see him recognized alongside Kobe at the next home game so both are celebrated together. That would be awesome.
