Re: why tobe fails - in his own words fakers v. hornets
Tim
I really thought you had more sense that that.
Ben could not stop Shaq for shit during that series.....PU___LEASE. Kobe's shot sent the one game they won into overtime. His game tying three came after he jacked up another stupid shot and Shaq got the rebound and hit the free throw afterwards to cut the deficit to three allowing Kobe to tie.
I was a Lakers fan at the time and couldn't beleive this dude was playing this way on the real.
Kobe , T-Mac, and KG are pretenders in the same vein.....good players and on some nights great but wayyyyy overhyped. Why can't you let these guys actually accomplish something before you start riding them? I would take Dennis Rodman and his BBall knowledge over Kobe. Shit give me Horry , get me Sam Cassel....anyone that plays team ball and doesn't shit on his teammates.
TimRock said:So detroit gets no credit for their victories? Come on now, Detroit played great ball in this series. And their defense was better than any of the teams that the lakers played in the west. They were a lucky shot from Fischer away from not beating the spurs. Sure kobe had a bad shooting series against Tayshaun. Tayshaun also locked down McGrady as well, and no one said T-Mac sabotage that series. And the Magic was up 3 to 1. No one blamed T-mac for losing that series.There are also other factors to look at. Karl Malone wasnt 100%. Chauncy was abusing Payton. Add those things together and they can hardly be one persons fault. Shaq was damn near locked down by Ben Wallace. He couldnt defend elden campbell. And defesively, with Malone out, we had no one to stop Corliss Williamson. You can blame that whole series on Kobe. Cause if im correct, the only game they won, Kobe won it for them.
On another note, someone made a comment about Wade getting his team to the second round, and kobe not being able to do that. How long did it take KG to get to the second round. T-Mac still hasnt seen a second round. Lebrons been in the league as long as wade and doesnt even have a playoff appearance yet. So why will kobe be put down if he doesnt get his team to the second round. Some had them not even making the playoffs.
