ya.. hopefully he gets it together quickly.. Maybe he needs to have a talk with Phil.

I don't think any of the top 3 MVP candidates truly had a "great" game tonight.

Paul went 5-17 with 20 assists but won on a last second shot.

LeBron onyl had 21 I believe and Kobe was thrown out.

Kobe has been horrible lately.His defense today was incredibly bad.Good lord it's sad to see.

Probably because his ankle is limiting his lateral quickness maybe? just a guess

Kobe will be just fine. If he loses the MVP then he loses the MVP, the Lakers are playing for much more than that.

. No, his D sucked today because he gave no effort.Not closing out on shooters, get back doored etc.Terrible.
To be fair he has been the best permeter defender in the league this year.Him and Battier.But no excuses.

You saw a Kobe with a bum ankle who has played about 140 minutes in the past 3 games. He's tired. Simple as that.

Really? I saw a guy who wasn't paying attention to his guy and was excessively gambling.Just terrible.

After tonight... KOBE is no MVP.... give it to chris paul

[Poseidon]

What REALLY bothered me with Kobe's performance vs Charlotte is that he scored ZERO points in the 4th quarter (after scoring 17 in the 3rd).

How on earth can Kobe Bryant not score a single point in the 4th quarter? That's inexcusable, especially for a MVP candidate!

Shaq says it's Kobe

O'Neal won the award in 2000 with Los Angeles before a well-publicized rift with Bryant led the Lakers to split the pair up. Asked who he liked in the MVP race, though, O'Neal said, "The Kobester. He's an assassin."

Anyway, right now it's Paul but I still think the Lakers finish with a better record or they"ll be tied and in that case, it goes to Kobe.
As it should. As it will.

[KINGD]

Kobe will win.

28+/6+/5+/2+All NBA 1st team defense/DPOY calabir+taking an injury riddled Laker team to 1st in West in toughest conference ever=MVP.
