It is his mindset that worries me the most. He started off the season making all the right decisions: not forcing shots, not iso-ing too much, playing more off the ball, involving teammates(especially Dwight) more. Look at him now.
Same shit happened last year.

The only bad shooting/scoring game he had in the last 5 games was the Memphis one. It is kind of what happens when Tony Allen guards you.

btw. quick question... if a guy wins 5 championships and carvs out a legendary career only a handful of guys compare to while playing a certain way... is it intelligent to assume that certain way is inefficient? or PROFICIENT?

If you are complaining about his shot selection then you should complain about his shot selection, not his inefficiency or chucking. The results are showing that he has been pretty efficient.
Kobe has always had terrible shot selection so I'm not sure how this is surprising. He might have the worst shot selection in NBA history really..

This kind of "Kobe Fan" is even worse than haters. These dudes(?) worry so much about Kobe that they get upset even in a blowout if Kobe doesn't shoot "every" shot in a way that is "satisfactory" according to their taste. It is really annoying as these people are like mother hens watching over their prized child. This isn't about Kobe; this is about a fan who is desperate for Kobe to NEVER make mistakes- his/her validation of Kobe depends on him having the BEST game EVER very damn game. This is the kind of fan that will rip "their player" even after a friggin' blowout for not reinforcing their agenda. Disgusting.

I mean he shot 6-11 w/ 5 assists. Save for the turnovers, he had a solid game.
No one would think any less of Kobe for having nights like these. In fact, when he puts aside his individual scoring and instead looks to create for others, it's very refreshing. Kobe is showing maturity if anything.
Kobe 4 The Win
11-25-2012, 12:46 AM
Old: He is old
Ineffecient: Shooting .545 in this game, over 50% on the year is not inefficient.
Chucking: Shooting 11 times in this game and under 18 shots per game this year is not chucking.
If you want to bitch about his turnovers that's one thing but your current "arguement" is way off base. If you think he isolates too much then you haven't been paying attention for the the last 17 years. You are trying too hard to find fault with his game.

Hard for people to understand that Kobe is an innefficient player, only that he has had support and personnel to hide these shortfalls throughout his career. Many Laker/Kobe fans will defend him and twist the facts to suit their story, just the way it is. Although OP has bad timing to point this fact out, I understand what he is trying to say, Kobe is likely to go into Chuckbe mode, shooting games of 5/17, 8/22, with 1 or two assists, thinking that he needs to lead the team by scoring, when reality is he needs to allow the ball to flow, and give up on the isolation plays. Look, I dont hate the guy, or want his children dead, but he is the only player in the league that I find comes accross fake and a spoilt child. Only Kobe gets away with this, any other player would be out of the league.

There is definitely some truth to this. IMO, as long as he limits his turnovers and looks to facilitate, LA should have no problems offensively.

oh Kobe oh Kobe please be with me oh Kobe. I dream of you all day and night. You consume my every thought.
I choose to post about Kobe alot, I dislike the guy, its no secret.
I also post in alot of other threads that interest me, not Kobe related. That's what I do and many others do...If I hurt your feelings enough that you choose to call me out like that, so sorry man, Im sure kobe can make time for you to suck his d**k when he's finished with his other stans.

You're thread title was referring towards the Dallas game.
Today, yeah he's been bad.
And as for turnovers ? Couldn't you have put the title down as "TurnoverBe strikes again !!!" or something ?

His FG% is now down to 47.3%. Wasn't it well over 50% just 2 weeks ago?

why are you so obsessed with his shooting %, you made at least 5 posts on the Laker game thread on Kobe %, enough is enough!

Um, no you didn't. You didn't tell us anything in the OP and your thread title is still misleading back to the Dallas game.
Just to quote this again:
My advantage is that I don't need this kind of ego-fix.
BTW, if I say you are dead now when you clearly are alive, but later on bump the thread once you (possibly) really die... does it mean that I was right all the time?

Yep. New system hasn't been good to him.

More like he's regressing to the mean. Has nothing to do with any "system." There was zero reason to believe that he would shoot 50+% for the season (much less 53% like he was early), but Kobe stans clung to it like it was a foregone conclusion that he would set a career FG% mark now, at age 34. Now they're being exposed and Kobe is simply showing that he's...Kobe. A career 45-46% shooter for the most part, which is where he'll finish the season most likely.

Whatever you say. Players will shot different percentages in different roles. In that system he was IMO around a 48% shooter. In this system he is likely going shot in around 41-43%. He only gets bad shots now. The reason he shot so well before was because he was getting easy shots.
This isn't me playing revisionist history. I've posted about this since the hiring of the new coach.

Kobe's career high is 46.9% and that was in his prime with Shaq taking up doubles. Like I said weeks ago, his fg% will finish below 47%. Most likely it will be the typical Kobe percent of 45%.
oh the horror

So, we're all going to ignore the fact that in this new system, without Nash, or really any reliable pg, Kobe is now being asked to run run run, on top of being a primary contributor for most plays, and handle a load of the offense as well.
You really dont think it has much to do with the system?

Nash coming back might push that percentage back up since he will get better shots. The only thing is, once Nash is back I expect he'll do just one thing, shoot. He already thinks passing is a low priority, optional play and that's with him being the primary play maker.

I wouldn't count on it. Sometimes I get the feeling Kobe shoots better on contested shots. Maybe a false impression though from seeing him drain so many contested shots.

46-47% is inefficient?
I thought lower 40's was considered inefficient.
46-47% is pretty good IMO

You keep bumping this thread, explaining nothing in the OP but wrong information about a game that was weeks ago and trying to apply it for today's game, as if you made a big time discovery.
Where was the bump in Cleveland and New York ?

he will drop to 42-43% by end of the season

Why are you so obsessed with my op? I was too furious at that time to explain anything. What I meant is his mentality changed, and the games after that proved I was right.

I know you are a hater but I've got to admit you're right. When shit hits the fan, Kobe goes back to chuck mode. Pisses me off so bad all the time.
