but fuck Casey for playing Aaaron Gray tho. dude reminds me of those useless bigs from the 90s, like Greg Kite, that only saw floor time to eat space and dish out hard fouls. Why use him when you have a more agile defender in Val?

Dwight/kobe won us this game. I still can't get over how antoni didn't even substitute while meeks was getting abused over and over and over again while kobe and dwight work their butts of to get the win. We are winning despite of him. It's just too much to watch now.

don't forget Nash's off balance 3 pointer that tied it in OT, that was a godsend.

but yeah dunno wtf D'Antoni was thinking with Meeks, even if he didn't sub him out at least change the matchup.

He provided the AWFUL defensive lapses on Nash's 3 and Kobe's dunk too.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

That's all Mcfails doing. He doesn't call plays, he lets players do what they want and Harden is the main man on the team. Harden is only 23 so I cut him some slack even when it pisses me off when he's badly off and still shooting. This is his first time being the main man (scoring) on an NBA team. A real coach would have told him to stop the ball hogging and crap at the end, might have been benched, but he just gets calls. The fact that Parsons wasn't getting the ball at all points directly at Mchale's shit job at coaching that Gundy was praising for some reason :|

Some calls are legit and some are complete bs, nothing us Rockets fans can do. Nothing off about the kid other than he's new at this and being coached the wrong way.

Good point. I forget he is so young. He and Lin don't seem to work well together, but I guess that can be down to system. Like they don't know what to do without the ball

The fouls at the end at least, I thought was GS just being dumb. Curry had to know that getting right up on Harden, that far away, when he still had his dribble was a bad idea. And getting off his feet on a pump fake is always gonna cost

I really like Parsons. I hope Morey doesn't view him as some asset to flip in pursuit of the next star. He's the kind of guy a good team needs.

No one will be as clutch in our lifetime. 17 years of godlike perfomances. Remember only Wilt has scored more in a single game. We may never witness this kind of greatness again.

its not only about his stats though, its about his style of play, and his competitive persona.

One day I will talk to my children about Kobe making ridiculouse 3 pointers in front of two defenders. It will be folklore, legend.......

I'm just so blessed to be alive during this time to have seen it. Kobe has brought a lot of joy to my life. To watch someone with this kind of desire is a true blessing. Unparalleled.

So the story you're going to tell your grandkids about Kobe is the legendary game where the .500 Lakers beat the 24-38 Toronto Raptors. That's the Kobe legacy you want to leave in their minds.

One day if only with a whisper we will recall this man's game. Like Hakeem, he will charge players when he's retired except his camp will be about heart, desire, and will.

They work well when they run pick and roll O and they do have games were they sync up well (Lin gets benched way too much by Mchale for no reason and it's really messed with his confidence imo), but they didn't do any of that in the 4th. It was hand the ball off too Harden at the top of key and then let him try to draw a foul. It was disgusting to watch when you know that Parsons was hot all night. I didn't like Mchales coaching last season and I find it even more annoying this season.

No way Morey flips Parsons when he has him for two more years and his contract is so cheap since he was a 2nd round pick lol NBA scounts. He's too good and no one is worth that they could trade for.

Well everything you do comes off as bitter.

You could go christmas caroling at a children's hospital and you'd be escorted out after being barraged by tiny voices shouting "get that bitter motherfucker outta here!"

Lakers fans are enjoying a legendary performance by the greatest player of the last 13 seasons. Sorry that we arent pissed off waiting for the other shoe to fall when our best player leads his team to an amazing victory like you do with the Mavs.
