WHY DIDNT KOBE SHOOT MORE DAMMIT
Bro, he's just a man...Not a fu*king machine.

It's not rebound-ball.
Re: Kobe Bryant 42pts in Elimination Game Against OKC
41 minutes played and 0 assists.

Shit just got serious
Re: Kobe Bryant 42pts in Elimination Game Against OKC
How do people not recognize that there's two parts to an assist? A pass, and a make. Guess which one was absent? Hint for the witty ones: The Latter.

So explain how other teammates got assists? 90% of Kobe's baskets were 1-on-1
So was Kobe too dumb to figure out who not to pass to?

Re: Kobe Bryant 42pts in Elimination Game Against OKC
In certain situations he has to pass the ball. But let's be honest. Would you want the guy to give up the ball with the way he was shooting? Kobe was hot shooting the ball.

Very good NBA starter
Re: Kobe Bryant 42pts in Elimination Game Against OKC
He played a great game. Too bad he doesn't have a time machine though, and can't go back and re-do games 2 and game 4.

It's a shame his teammates didn't bring it tonight as well, but that is why you can't blow 2 games in a series...you open the door for a 5 game series that should have gone 7.
My Mavs did the same thing. We blew 3 of the 4 games and we got swept. Just can't beat elite teams blowing games like that.
Good to see Kobe fight hard on the verge of elimination though...most of the time he and his teams just lay down.
the problem since 2004 in elimination games is the lakers defense not kobe bryant.
even tonight they allowed 28 points per quarter in a must win game.
kobe had great elimation games before that when the lakers had good D.

And here's the catch 22 hence how does his teammates establish a rhythm?
But when Kobe was suited and booted and Kobe Ish Tards was splashing the board whacking it the Lakers went 4-2 or 5-2 with him Zenning?
All glory went to him still when he wasn't on the court winning games. Kobe is infallible

IDK about that. This is like the first time I've ever seen an elimination game where I can proudly say, Kobe did not want to go home tonight.

Some of that is true, but Kobe has been dreadful in elimination games over his career.

No need to revise history. Is what it is.
