So Kobe is playing the Pacers tonight...

[JT123]

but will sit out tomorrow's game against Portland. Draw from that what you will.

[Budadiiii]

Play against the shitty East teams, sit out against the West.

Recipe for longevity.

How come LeBron is already losing his athleticism and dealing with injuries when he's played in the East his whole career? He should be fresh.

[Heavincent]

Kobe is old and takes the second night of back-to-backs off so he can rest?

Not sure what else there is to draw from it.

Why not rest the first night of a back to back, especially since there is a good chance the Lakers could win this game without him?

Are you suggesting the Lakers need Kobe to win tomorrow? High praise coming from you. Damn.

[lakerspng]

He is playing tonight... And damn well.

So he doesn't have to travel you dumb mother f*cker.

[JT123]

Plus I'm sure the fans in Portland paid a shit ton of money to see him play.

There is no need for name calling young man.
You have to admit it is a little suspicious that he choses to play against the lottery team and sit against the contender in a back to back.

[KungFuJoe]

Ok that was an impressive dunk by Kobe.

[Budadiiii]

Is this different than LeBron sitting the first game of a back to back?

Sat out against KD because he was scared and played the next night.

Kobe is 36 though so he has an excuse.

Scared of a guy he has a 14-4 career record against? Nice try.

[Crose]

no he's scared of a guy who is way better than him. kd >>>>> lebron now

Team sport. Not tennis. Not mma.

When LeBron tries to guard Kevin, it goes very bad for LeBron.

Durant shits on the dude and surpassed him a long time ago when talking about individual dominance.

KD = best in the world

LeBron = washed up at 30

so the people that come to Staples get to see what they paid for

why would he sit out a home game in front of Lakers fans vs a road game if he's going to miss one of the two games


btw i expect to see similar threads from you when Lebron or Duncan or any other big name sits a few games.... or are you just trolling

Plus I'm sure the fans in Portland paid a shit ton of money to see him play.

Not as much as Laker fans did
