you'd want either James or Wade over Bryant in a close game?
really?

Kobe has basically become a jump shooter, and he also pretty much refuses to pass the ball late in games. I don't see why you would take him over guys like Wade and LeBron who will get to the rim, and if people are blocking the lanes, they can step back and hit a jumper if needed. Also they are un-selfish.

Nets lose a close one to the Cavs in Cleveland last night without DH. We will be a team to watch for next year.

the selfish Kobe argument is dead
that was cool in 05, but not anymore
he is second in assists for shooting guards. thats not selfish

and he does too pass late in games. sometimes when he shouldnt like that San Antonio game when he gave it to Ariza who traveled.
All the close games we've been in, he takes the big shots and delivers.
he has passed some game winners/tieing shots this season too. look at the game in february i think when the lakers played the hornots. he gave it to Fish who hit it

Pistons against the Lakers tonight.
The Big 3 (pussys) are out still.


Put that in the loss column.

I bet we will hang in there this game, I don't know about a win though.

We always manage to play good teams well, but never the crap ones.
I just pray we don't lose by 20 lol.

IF we win, it's gonna be by like 5 or 6, watch

Lakers/Pistons > Heat/Bulls (i swear these teams play each other every other week)

Oh I know. And the worst part is the channel it is on for Detroit is the FSN+. So that is a station I can only see in my living room. So I don't think I can watch it.

It's not dead.. He may not be as selfish as he was in 2005 but he is still very selfish late in games and it shows...
