so kobe is over aggressive, acts like an idiot with the clock running down and hits a guy up high but it shouldn't be called a foul? he didn't kick out his leg sideways and the leg that was kicked "forward" wasn't even touched! kobe hit him up top
the more i see commentary on these games the more it's "a foul was called on my team!? bullshit!" with no regard for what actually happened
uh, Kobe hit him up at the hands well after the shot, which is legal (hand part of the ball).
Paul put his legs out and then even tilted them to the side a bit. I'm not watching TNT, I'm getting the home feed and seeing the replays they're showing. Looked pretty obvious to me that's not a foul. Paul's movements initiated the fouling contact.
Lakers needs Andrew in the game right now for defense. Don't wait, Phil. And Pau's unwillingness to do anything is hurting LA on offense.
