Kobe needed someone to step up and take a shot after drawing a double team... the end was a perfect example of the lakers.. inability to move their feet and just watch kobe do everything. walton should have walked back knowing the double team is going to go on kobe... he should have set his feet behind the 3 point line then the instant he gets the ball take the shot. Instead he passes the ball to kobe stands there next to him, gets the ball back doesnt take the shot and gives it back to kobe with 1 second left.
Kobe and lebron are in different positions... i'm sick and tired about people saying lebron is better because he can beat him 1 on 1.
Lamar was in the post multiple times and Kobe waved him out wanting to go 1 on 1 against Lebron. The Lakers got 3 easy baskets from Lamar in the post today
1. Turiaf got a layup slashing to the basket from LO drawing the double team down low.
2. Farmar got a wide open 3 because LO drawing the double team in the post.
3. Lamar backed down his man inside the paint and passed to Turiaf for the alleyoop.
Turiaf also missed a wide open layup when the Cavs doubled Lamar and Turiaf cut to the basket.
The problem is the Lakers dont go to that enough and Kobe starts going on these 1 on 1 stretches.
