ESPN lies after Kobe Bryant loses to LA Clippers on January 6, 2010, LA Clippers vs. LA Lakers
Jan 7th
Phil Jackson after the loss to the Clippers: “It was too much individual play”
Bynum has 16 shots and took 7th Kobe and Bynum were the only 12 shots or more, the Lakers, Kobe was held below 30 and missing 20 of his shots. Who could have talked Phil? You tell me.
It’s good that the referees gave Kobe 15 free throws or her score would have to say how terrible it from the soil even more.
In 17 of 35 games this year, Kobe has 13 missed shots or more! MVP my ass.
Who should be even more shots? Who does LeBron 50.5% of his shots from the floor and 35.7% of his 3 pointers, or Kobe, which makes 47.7% of his shots from the floor and 32.1% of his 3 pointers?
Who should be even more shots?? LeBron, who has a worse supporting cast, or Kobe, who has an All-Star team for the support of the votes?
In 35 games Kobe has taken 79 more shots than LeBron, and is barely outscoring him by 1 point per game.
6. January Kobe shot 10-30 vs. the Clippers, cost his team the game.
Kobe blew the GAME!
30. Kobe shot 6-19 vs. Dallas in October, cost his team the game.
13. Kobe vs. Denver, November 7-17 shooting, cost his team the game.
15. Kobe shoots vs. Houston November 5-20, cost his team the game.
12. Kobe shoots vs. Utah December 7-24, cost his team the game.
25. December Kobe shoots 11-32 (11-33 according to yahoo) vs. Celtics, cost his team the game.
Kobe has single-handedly was the main reason why the Lakers lost in 6 of their 7 losses. He is so overrated it’s not even funny. I am so sick and tired of the NBA media kissing this guy’s ass.
As someone who can so much of inconvenience to the HIS ALL STAR TEAM valuable player in a team sport, THE KOBE only cares about himself?
Good example of how good the Lakers were without Kobe, Kobe takes 12 shots vs. Dallas on 3January and they beat the Mavs with 35 points.
LeBron is a better 3-point shooter than Kobe, LeBron makes up nearly 36% of his 3’s, Kobe makes only 32%. LeBron has made 19 more than Kobe, Japan 3 hands so far this year.
LeBron is an efficient scorer making 50.5% of his shot attempts, while Kobe makes up only 47% of his shot attempts. LeBron could easily outscore Kobe, if he was more selfish. LeBron is Kobe to outscore the end of the season.
LeBron is a better guide to make a worse support. He opened the floor for his teammates and is a much more willing passer. LeBron has supported over the years 287 and Kobe has only 163rdLeBron is averaging 8 assists per game.
LeBron is a better defender, better shot-blocker and a better rebounder. Not to mention far superior athletes.
