Quote: janis carr: Kobe said he has no plans to stop shooting. Will figure out how to play with his wrist instead.
Quote: Dave McMenamin: KB was defiant about his 6-of-28 game: "If I have shots, I take them. If I shoot the ball 40 times with good looks, that
exactly what me and some others said last night. if u have 40 good looks u take those shots. if bynum has 40 good looks ill be pissed if he passed them up too. kobe wont miss this badly every game lol
Someone doesn't know basketball at all. :lol (OP is dumb)
He does sound like an ass. How about saying while his wrist heals he'll try and get his teammates more involved? I really thought Kobe acting like this was over. This is why Kobe can't be in the same discussion as Jordan.

his wrist cant heal. he can either learn how to shoot with it or he can learn how to not. since this was his only really bad game this season i think wrist isnt an excuse
The thing is it's frustrating to see Kobe play like he did last night especially after playing so well the first few games of the season. That game he had against the Knicks had my jaw drop at how good he was. I agreed with Reggie Miller's commentary about how Kobe has worked on his game and changed things so he can continue to perform at such a high level at 33. He was playing smart basketball. Then he has a game where he throws up shot after shot when nothing was falling and he's playing as stupid as 20 year old Kobe.
agree with him about taking shots on good looks.
the thing is that not all of his shots yesterday were on good looks.

"We always start inside-out," Bryant said, when asked about Bynum and Pau Gasol's effectiveness on offense. "If you mean (to ask me) if I'm going to shoot less, the answer is no. It starts with me. I do what I do and we play off of that. That's not going to change."
Why not end the game inside-out when it's working for 3 quarters????

This. He's gonna keep shooting, as he should. I'm sure he got frustrated and started forcing some bad shots. But Kobe needs to stay aggressive. I'd like to see Bynum a little more assertive as far as demanding the ball as well.
I see where his stans get it from now. Guy is the ultimate dbag.

It goes hand-in-hand with glorifying the whole Black Mamba assassinment, no-regard for the team, i'm taking the last shot, get the hell out of my way and don't expect to apologize for missing this 30-footer with 5 seconds still on the clock, or not passing the ball....Mentality.
Typical Kochuck bringing up a new random injury every year LOL
i don't see anything wrong with that answer. people overreact so much. it was a really bad shooting performance, maybe even the worst of his entire career. but you can't deny that kobe hits those shots on a regular basis. it was just a bad game, he'll obviously bounce back from it. lakers will be fine and so will kobe.

LOL the dude doesn't even make sense. It's a blatant contradiction.
Dude is about taking his shots and getting his credit, THEN he wants to win. But doesn't just wanna adapt his game to winning basketball. He expects the Lakers organization to pay whatever it takes to surround him with players that can COMPENSATE AND ALLOW him to play selfish Kobe ball and CARRY him to wins he will then take credit for.
And the funny thing is, 99% of Laker fans are too scared to call him out for it, because if any one of them speaks up they're afraid the rest of them will ostericize them from the group for daring speak ill of Cult Leader Kobe. These Laker fans are a trip. Such followers, desperate to fit in the Cult of Kobe. SMH at these losers.

I'd like to see Bynum a little more assertive as far socking Kobe in the grill and knocking him out cold to start the new chapter of the Lakers. When Kobe wakes up, Kupchak will be standing there with a smile on his face, holding out a pink amnesty slip. Good riddance to the most Ko-ber rated player in NBA history.
