Bullshit.
Without Kobe's production, the Lakers don't sniff the playoffs.
It's a double edged sword, imo. Kobe's still amazing, but you can tell he's in a decline. He still draws a lot of double teams which tells a lot. However, going to 2/10 or whatever he went for... do not want. I'm all for shooting out of your slump, but he takes an incredible amount of bad shots. He needs to learn how to pass when he draws double teams (what Bynum has been doing lately).
He still makes some great clutch shots (see: yesterday), but I don't want him turning into a Fisher.
