Mamba drops 24 pts. in the 4th quarter of crucial win or die game.

[QUOTE=tazb]Carried by Gasol (not the first time:lol) throughout the whole game and he played hero-ball in the fourth when he didn't have to, but of course, he has to.[/QUOTE]

Team is down against a lowly team (again) in the 4th, and Kobe goes apeshit from the field after starting the game 1-6. But, "he didn't have to." :oldlol:

Where are they from? Jack in the Box? Yeah, **** yeah I am. Those things are underrated, just like Kobe in the clutch and Griffin in the post.

Naw I know. I'm about to go get some right now. Mr Jabbars pic made me hungry. They r so cheap. But a little spicy with the sauce. I was just saying they r so cheap that u don't even need coupons.

It's amazing what Kobe does to you people :lol:

Anyway - despite it not being a great game, I think today is an exemplar of what Kobe and most Laker fans hoped the season would be. The Bigs dominating like they should early on and Kobe bringing it home.

When you think about how easy it can and should be for this team it's frustrating watching them simply not execute...or worse yet...not want to execute. Kobe had to almost completely take himself out of the game for the bigs to develop an offensive rhythm and that isn't healthy. That should come naturally.

How many points did he have in the first 3 quarters?

Enough for the Lakers to win.

That's unusual this season.

Usual enough for the playoffs seed.

Quite sad to gen an exit in the first round at best with such supporting cast.

The supporting cast is not that good once you start watching the games.

[QUOTE=Mr. Jabbar]The supporting cast is not that good once you start watching the games.[/QUOTE]

Maybe they need a good leader.

[QUOTE=Sakkreth]Maybe they need a good leader.[/QUOTE]

Maybe they need a good coach, just maybe.

[QUOTE=DonDadda59]This thread is just sad. Why even evoke Lebron's name at this point?[/QUOTE]

The Playmaker brought it up, not a Kobe stan.

[QUOTE=Sakkreth]Quite sad to gen an exit in the first round at best with such supporting cast.[/QUOTE]

MWP, Nash, Jordan Hill, Dwight Howard, Pau, Kobe have all missed time this season, how many games did they play with a full team? 5-8?

[QUOTE=Mr. Jabbar]Maybe they need a good coach, just maybe.[/QUOTE]

They need to get rid of Dantoni before he wears Kobe into the ground like he did amare. The dude cares nothing for players health just saving his own ass. Kobe was ballin consistently early in the season. Now he is so worn out he can only perform inconsistently. It's only a matter of time with the minutes he is playing before he suffers a major injury.

Mamba shutting down ISH.

[QUOTE=The Playmaker]It is funny that most all-time greats are judged by post-season games but kobe gets praise for regular season games.[/QUOTE]

It's funny that most all time greats are judged AFTER they are retired in such respect.... go away troll.

Kobe was amazing last night. :bowdown: :rockon:


Pau dominated as well..

[QUOTE=Mr. Jabbar]Maybe they need a good coach, just maybe.[/QUOTE]
when it's Kobe, he needs a good coach. but when it's Lebron, he's just a choker.

Enough about Lebron folks...Kobe only.

[QUOTE=The Playmaker]It is funny that kobe's statline for tonight is literally an average game from lbj.[/QUOTE]
This.

Kobe and LeBron fans are both delusional though. :D

[QUOTE=Indian guy]I was impressed. He had played like absolute ass prior to the 4th qtr, which was inexcusable in itself against the league's 3rd worst defense, but it takes quite a bit of courage and mental toughness to completely turn that around in the 4th qtr, all in your most important game of the season and in a close contest to boot. He came out gunning right off the bat in the 4th. That's fearlessness. You can only imagine the sh!t he would've been receiving had he been cold in the 4th and LA lost....which would've put them well on pace for the most humiliating season in American sport history. From a legit contender to not even making the playoffs in a league where 16 teams make it? That's unfreakingprecedented. Kobe's short-term legacy(at least among harcore basketball fans on the net) would've been a joke. It still could be, but at least they are the 8th seed for now with 3 out of their next 4 @ home.

So there was a lot on the line Kobe for in that 4th qtr. Give credit.[/QUOTE]

he sed after the game that he wanted to "rest" tonight (even on the court) as much as possible cuz of the b2b @blazers, but after 3 quarters he had to go to work.

love how all the lebrontards are all worked up in this thread. :roll:

Enjoy it while it lasts Lakers, old man kobe aint gonna do the same when you guys get swept by san Antonio if you guys don't lose your 8th seed LOLOLOLOL

[QUOTE=krazymofo]Enjoy it while it lasts Lakers, old man kobe aint gonna do the same when you guys get swept by san Antonio if you guys don't lose your 8th seed LOLOLOLOL[/QUOTE]

Enjoy your stacked Miami team with Lechoke who won't be back to back FMVP

:applause: Kobe's gunning for that 8th seed. He cannot be stopped, the man is going all out to make it to the first round. :cheers:

[QUOTE=nathanjizzle]lbj never scored 24 points in the 4th quarter the last 2 seasons. deal wit it.[/QUOTE]

Thats because LeBron would have had the game won by the 3rd quarter.

[QUOTE=SilkkTheShocker]Thats because LeBron would have had the game won by the 3rd quarter.[/QUOTE]

No, because Lechoke. He never comes out to play in the 4th.

[QUOTE=SilkkTheShocker]Thats because LeBron would have had the game won by the 3rd quarter.[/QUOTE]


Must be why he chose to sit out every 4th quarter of the 2011 finals

It was quite entertaining to watch. The Mamba went HAM right on schedule.

Very nice, he is giving it all these last few games, most of those games he played without any rest, i hope he/Lakers get to playoffs, would rather see Lakers (instead of Utah) against Spurs/OKC.

He's been giving it his all for 82 games..

Pauk, you and your subtle back handed compliments are cringe worthy and blatantly obvious

What the hell ? :facepalm

I don't think he even meant it like that, dude.

I like how these threads always just end up with the same people saying the same BS things. Both sides.

:applause:
