Did he really? I wouldn't be surprised -- dude is beyond full of himself. Seriously, why does he always have to make arrogant comments like that? He really thinks that he's better than he is. That's the problem with him.
Slow down. No need to get your panties all wett Looni. Smith asked Kobe if he can score on anyone, Kobe was reluctant to respond, all Kobe did was smile. Smith forced it out of Kobe, Kobe said okay, okay...
why its not really arrogant. He probably could go out and score 50 almost every night. He is speaking the truth. If he really believe he could do that than why not

You say this without having any idea of context? Pretty arrogant of you.
I just rewound the Tivo. What Kobe said was that it would be easy to go out and score 50 points, lose the game and then say he had done his part. That would be the easy way to handle things. He did not say it was easy to score 50 points.

He can answer the question (that he can score on anyone when he's on) without saying that "it would be easy to score 50." That's just BS.

It is not arrogant to interpret someone's words in the absence of context. It may be premature (as it perhaps was here), but it's not arrogant. In fact, you can look up the word "arrogant" in the dictionary if you're unsure about this. ;)
Fact is, Kobe has made similar remarks in the past, so it's not a huge stretch to imagine that he said so again. In fact, I'm pretty sure he said some variant of "I can score 50 whenever I want" last season, perhaps during the playoffs. There was a thread here about it.

loki, SAS told him that he though he would go off in game 7 last yr and told him that most ppl were criticizing him saying MJ, malone, etc. would have gone down firiing. Then SAS told him he though hed get 50 because kobe was pretty hot that day...Kobe's response was that he had 20 at halftime and could have poured in 50 and just lost and said "i did my part" but he was more concernced on getting everyone goin cuz thats how they beat the suns earlier
he said that they'll co-exist and that they're a team to worry about. said that they are both competitive and that by hearing that they wont co-exist, they'll make sure they will

what else did Kobe say? Can you give a summary? Do you think he covered up for his previous Arena coment?
