I CAN put the blame on Kobe because he missed 17 **** shots. That's almost as many shots as the entire team minus Kobe missed.

I noticed no one seems to be pointing out Bryant's atrocious defense. Dude was "matadoring it" out there.

players that have shot 20 more shots that have shot 15% or lower for the game:

1. Kobe Bryant.

that's it.


Talk about a meaningless stat, lol.

That's pretty much the norm. His defense has been atrocious dating back to the beginning of last season. At least in 2009-10 he was putting in effort and playing a smarter 2-man game with Artest out there helping. The last two seasons it just looks like he's given up completely.

The funny thing is that he'll get selected to the All-Defensive 1st Team again, and several members on RealGM will commit suicide as a result.

20 shots is still too much when Drew and Gasol were playing well and we had Sessions to create on the perimeter. Kobe was hellbent on getting his shot going no matter what and it screwed us, along with Browns new Blake obsession. And its not like Kobe couldn't do anything else, he could have tried to make plays for other guys instead of shooting, but no. Had to shoot until it dropped. Never did.

I hope he gets it and Wade gets #2 just because that'd provide even more lulz
