Cause Kobe wasn't in the game, the final couple minutes flowed much better offensively. There's no selfish ball with Nash(i guess u can say Blake too) able to control the offense, and IIRC, it wasn't just one person who did all the scoring the last three minutes
Kobe in the final minutes, go on the attack with 12 or less seconds on the shot clock and then get doubled and kick it out... or go for hero-ball and shoot when hes triple or double teamed. Everybody is more engaged offensively when Kobe isn't on the floor (moreso the final stretches), that's the truth.
Kobe need rest. He should only come back when they start losing to .500 teams.
He can provide "spiritual support" and be the assistant coach for a while.. like last year
Defensive rotations are better without Kobe there, tape doesn't lie, Kobe this season has taken it easy on the defensive end and gets beat on back cuts and rotations leaving his "man" usually open for a jump shot/cut to the basket. Kobe taking it easy on the defensive end results in him being able to exert more energy on offense with the exception of the few match-ups where Kobe has to actually defend the pg of the other team where Nash would get killed. (Westbrook/Paul/Parker/Irving etc).

Is anyone else annoyed by the new commentator that does the highlights on nba.com ? He sounded like someone who would commentate in wrestling. The things he say is super stupid and the voice or the tone he says it with just made it even worse.

Fuck... is he back? Last weekend was horrible. I either muted sound or stopped watching. Posted via RS Mobile
You know you're fucked when MWP of all people goes 10/13 w/ 4 assists for 22 points..
Blake/Jamison are playin amazing these days
Hope Kobe stays out for as long as possible... so he can heal up and so he can re-evaluate his playing style to mesh with the team, less iso's etc similar back in 2000 when he was out for a string of games.. I remember they only lost like or two for the rest of the season after he returned
It was kinda weird seeing all the ball movement too.
Ellis with 25 in the 4th quarter to carry his team to a victory
Ended the fantasy league winning 15/20 weeks and being first seeded, hope there's no upsets lol Posted via RS Mobile
So funny seeing everyone miraculously look 100x better as soon as Kobe is out....I thought the best players in the world make their teammates better, no??
^ haha was waiting for someone to make that comment. Kobe is the alpha male on the team, ppl have to learn to play with him more than the other way around. But I think its evident that he's been trying to shift more towards what his teammates do then every before so hopefully they keep playing like a team when he's back.
PHILADELPHIA -- A person familiar with the decision says 76ers center Andrew Bynum will have season-ending arthroscopic surgery on both knees Tuesday.
Bynum
The person spoke on condition of anonymity Monday night because the surgery had not yet been announced. Bynum has not played this season because of bone bruises in both of his knees. The 25-year-old is an unrestricted free agent and may never play a game for the Sixers.
Bynum was shut down in training camp as a precaution and the Sixers originally hoped he'd be ready by opening night Oct. 31. Bynum said since training camp he would play this season. But after he experienced swelling in his right knee after a 5-on-5 scrimmage late last month, he acknowledged a return might not be possible.
Bynum was acquired from the Los Angeles Lakers as part of a four-team trade and was expected to make the 76ers contenders in the East.
I'll take a healthy Curry and Thompson, but you'll obviously need a lot more than that....I only say that because I can't see Lin or Jennings running a winning offense and controlling the pace of the game....Curry would have to be your 2nd, maybe even 3rd guy....and Klay Thompson nothing more than a good role player on a championship team...
