i lol'd at teh pic.
and i luv kobe , he's a bit selfish (not 'a bit' maybe) but when he plays like he played against the heat (only seen 2,5quarters), when he gets others involved i doubt anything could stop lakers, and i believie phil jackson, could do so. (I mean make kobe play every game like he played against the heat)


sorry for bad spelling..

he's earned the right to be selfish.

and does anybody know how many 3's he hit that game? I know he holds the record somewhere in the high teens and i was wondering if he broke it.

Does selfish win basketball games? They won that game so you can't say much but they were playing the lowly Raptors. Overall though, his team is pretty mediocre at best and he's averaging 35+ pts a game. I just think the "best" player in the NBA should lead his team to more victories.

He hit 7 three's which is actually more remarkable to me. 18-20 FT's.

Anyway, I just hate the Rapist (allegedly) with a passion. And the Lakers mind you.

what a trade ! i knew minnesota wanted to send some people packing, but i didn't know they wanted to ship wally out also .

boston gets wally z, kandi man, and a draft pick.
minnesota gets ricky davis, marcus banks, some scrubs, and a draft pick.

quite frankly, nothing has changed, but only worse for garnett, because no one scores for the wolves right now. they absolutely suck. their time passed 2 years ago.

and if anyone missed it, artest to the kinga, peja to the pacers.

a stephen jackson-peja duo with oneal isn't that bad. i look for peja to score at least 20% more now that he is in the east. antwan jamison's stats grew ever since he moved to the wizards from dallas and golden state.

i disagree.
i think he is still one of the premiere players in the league, along with elton brand, but unfortunately the 2 have been in crappy teams their whole careers that no one notices.

as long as garnett continues to post 20-10-5 numbers night in and night out, he's still good in my book. yeah yeah, he does "occasionaly" disappear in the 4th quarter, but i feel for him when he had crybabies on his team (spreewell and cassell) who never supported him.

Jermaine O'Neal is out for 8 weeks though so it's gonna be tough for Peja to get as many open looks. He's shooting 40.3 % from the field this year. He's throwing up more screwballs than he when he disappeared in the 2001 playoffs. His career FG % is 46.1%, so he's really down this year. He needs O'Neal to give him the open looks. Pacers are in trouble!

Steve Nash looks like a Scarecrow but he's having a better year than last year.

Wally World was on the block since last year cuz there was talk of my Blazers trying to get him. He's having a pretty good year. Garnett is still a stud but his supporting cast is pathetic. I don't see the fire in his eyes anymore though. I think he knows his team is mediocre on a good day.

I disagree and I dont feel for him. I like him although his stats are going down each year and he is the Peyton Manning of NBA playoffs
