Your thoughts? The first thing that crossed my mind was where the hell were Kobe's teammates sticking up for him.
[/quote]Since when did Kobe have teammates?
[/quote]LOL. He's a one-man ballhoging wreaking crew.
[/quote]you havent watched the play offs have you?[/quote]Well the Suns won in 7 games, but no I doubt did. This series we saw Kobe turn into a totally different player. When he scored in the 20s, his team won because he was handing out 8-10 assists. When he was scoring in the high numbers like the one game he had 50-something, the Lakers lost. But it wasn't Kobe's fault because he had to start shooting a lot when he would try to get the ball to his teammates and they would keep missing. His teammates needed to play more consistently. You know what happened Game 7? His teammates were not doing it at all and Kobe never decided to take over. He shot only 3 times in the 2nd half. He never tried to take over or chuck up shots. I wish he did try to take the game over, because his teammates couldn't buy a basket. But wow, in those games that they did win, Kobe was making so many extra passes and setting up the guys around so beautifully, and the rest of the team would catch on to it. I think this series was good for them and if Kobe plays anything like this next season, the Lakers can have a very nicee season.
