but he let his team lose 19 0f 20 straight games..where were the 50 points games then? oh yea, he was playing banged up.
Injured foot and as someone mentioned before we were 7th but then our coach leaves and Odom goes down ...
Kobe wasn't ready to handle all that which i know is also true for Wade and i will expect a bounce back season but will he really work hard in the summer and have that determination like Kobe did after that horrific season and the bounce back next season ? Well find out ... I know Kobe's hunger and mindset but i dont know Wade's .. i just know he's humble
Lakers were 7th in the league rebounding, But once Lamar Odom went down that Lakers team looked just as bad as this Heat team.
Kobe had to play with no rebounders, no shooters and no steady sidekick for 20 games...Wades had no real sidekick, no rebounders, and no shooters since the season started.
True but dont forget what Kobe had the 2 years after that as well ... it wasn't much and Smush had a decent first year (then he was horrible 07) and we also had starters like Mihm, Cook, Walton for long periods of time ... Odom though nice was extremly inconsistent during those years as well
Wade is just going through it this season but i cant help but feel like Pat will rip someone again which he has been so good at doing in the past
