About a hundred pages back you were talking about how Kobe never fatigues and how it was a sign of weakness on Lebron's part. Kobe's horrible performance is all on him and his inflated ego/hero complex.

You're right. I've never seen Kobe this gassed in a big game. But it's not over yet.

He also isn't guarding the other teams best perimeter player, another thing that you ripped LeBron for.

It's okay though.

Dwight Howard has been the best player in the series by a lot.

With all of the Kobe/LeBron talk, he is getting overlooked. He may be the best player in the game today. 14/20 with 8 blocks. Amazing.

best center, probably. but i just don't think he can consistently create his own shot enough to be up there with those guys

Magic NEED to hit their FTs.

Ariza continue to bail out Kobe's horrible play.

LUKE23 · Post #3588 » by **LUKE23** » Fri Jun 12, 2009 3:44 am

Kobe with a horrible play, Ariza bails him out.

Ariza 4 MVP.

Edit: Make that Turk 4 MVP.

Wow. Great minds think alike.

Huge.

Turkey Glue.

LUKE23 · Post #3594 » by **LUKE23** » Fri Jun 12, 2009 3:45 am

Yeah Turk.

Dwight with 15/20 and 9 blocks. Wow.

Kobe had a chance to help on Turkoglu and decided not to. Result: Magic up 5.

He tried to turn it over too.

Trevor Ariza had other plans though.

Poor Kobers and his fans. His Finals performances get worse and worse as the years go by.

How many games did Lebron actively lose for his teammates? Kobe is closing in on #2 in a row and tried his toughest in the 4th quarter of Game 2, but the 10-1 dubious call advantage and a tricked layup prevented it.

Absolutely. He has to be in the discussion.

now that was an interesting shot selection

midranger · Post #3600 » by **midranger** » Fri Jun 12, 2009 3:48 am

Kobe refuses to use multiple picks so he can throw up garbage.
