He was soooo aggressive trying to get the ball until he actually got the 40, then he figured it was okay to pass again. One Love, One Trust "Being the nothing to someone who is your everything is a lot like being a trainer for a boxer. She's constantly fighting the world, thinkin' she's unloved and alone, not knowing the one with the greatest love and support has always been in her corner. You tell her to watch for the right hook, and she still gets pummeled by it. Sooner or later, you just wanna throw in the towel."--MANCHILDyoko

In the first half when he wasn't scoring heavy, they were loosing. As he brought his onslaught on in the 3rd, Lakers pulled to within four. Clippers doubled hard for most of the 4th, got the ball out of his hands, and what happens? Clips go up double figures. http://twitter .com/_Justinnn http://JGOJustin.Tumblr.Com

Pretty sure he's in Eff U mode right now. Everyone questioned the Lakers and the failures of the off-season moves, then people questioned his injury, then they lost that opener at home to the Bulls, and in that Wilbon piece last week he was talking about how he was voted the 7th best player in the NBA in the ESPN poll (even though he tried to pass it off as joking around). It all adds up to a run like this. Like someone posted earlier, he'll keep going for 40 until he doesn't, then drop off significantly. And it's not like he's shooting 40% in all these games. He's at 50% overall.

NO! sure hes more athletic but thats about it... athletic means nothing unless u dominate both sides of the ball like lebron and dwight... but still lebron will never be better than kobe unless he gets his post up game right and his jumper... he has range but thats a different story... he still cant shoot New York Knicks

Even Clipper fans. What Clipper fans? That "home court" was definitely more a Lakers home court than the Clippers. It was hilarious to me when the Lakers were making a run and the "fans" there were cheering hella loud. Thought the Lakers were really at "home" for a minute. Anyway, I'm not saying Kobe didn't have a good shooting game but he was clearly gunning for that 40.

Registered Member Posts: 3844 01/15/12 2:18 AM	I have a serious question, and I'm not just asking this question as a Knicks' fan..But what is the difference between the way Kobe plays and the way Carmelo plays? Not saying Carmelo is as good as Kobe because he definitely is not..Kobe is a legend and has 1 of the best jumpers I've ever seen..He has multiple rings and Melo has 0..But if Carmelo takes over a game offensively the way that Kobe did and the team loses, people say "Damn Carmelo is such a ball hog..You can never win with a ball stopper like that." Yet, when Kobe takes over the game because it's the Lakers' best option of winning that game, nobody says anything negative, win or lose..Also, Kobe is a ball stopper as well..I don't see Kobe curling off screens or cutting to the hoop..He hasn't done that for years now so I don't wanna hear that he's too old to do so. There were multiple times tonight where Kobe would catch the ball like 25 feet from the basket and everyone knew immediately that he was about to go 1 on 1 against his defender.

Registered Member Posts: 6317 01/15/12 2:43 AM	I too have seen the similarities when Kobe goes in to #8 mode. When I compare with Melo I'd say putting scoring/shooting efficiency aside their passing ability is about the same and although they have the ability to make their teammates better it's when they want to and it doesn't just come automatically. Kobe does have the edge on defense though. Sometimes when I see LAL play especially now since Mike Brown is letting Kobe do w/e he wants I say the Knicks can play like that when it comes to Melo being a ball stopper or always going in to iso. It's just that Knicks role players are a bit worse, LAL has Bynum, and the team has been together longer. I will say though I've seen the reasonable LAL fans call Kobe a ball stopper and criticize him for his bad shot selection and going in to hero mode. So it isn't completely a bias when Kobe does it and when Melo does it.

Registered Member Posts: 3845 01/15/12 2:48 AM	Nah I agree ATGD..For the most part, Lakers' fans will call Kobe out when he goes into that mode where he just focuses on scoring because he doesn't have much faith in his teammates...Which in fairness, is usually when the rest of the team is playing like crap..But media outlets like ESPN just idolize him for it, yet when Carmelo does the same it becomes "You can't be a contender with an offensive player like Carmelo as your leader"...Kobe is easily a better defender than Carmelo but I'm speaking strictly offensively..If Kobe shoots on 5 straight possessions, the sports announcers say things like "Kobe going into assassin mode!!"..Then if Carmelo does it, they say "Carmelo is disrupting the offensive flow of the team" @CP1708, I'm talking in terms of the media, not fans
