[RJ87]

FINALLY Kobe gets called for an offensive foul

[Meadowlark_Scal]

that was on gasol.....but kobe is good too...

[dooyork]

that's on you, GEdited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.

Captain is smoking!

[Drucci]

Keep forcing Kobe!! HE is hot but taking terrible shots, keep it up, they can't stop us right now!!

[misha]

That's PP from 2008 finals!!

[ChainSmokingLikeDino]

Nothing you can do about Kobe when he is hitting like that. The D was good, the shots have been better.

PP keeps on responding. That was more of a screen foul on Pau but I'll take it.

PP!!!

[CelticSooner]

Kobe ball is returning.

keep shooting kobe.....keep shooting....you wont make them all

[mahonedog88]

NOW ray is useless on the floor

[RJ87]

Ray waited too long to make the outlet to Rondo and then Rondo tried to make something where nothing was there.

Looks like Ray juggled it a bit there and couldn't get it out quicker... I still hate wasted opportunities.

Can someone lay out Kobe Bryant? Just for the fun of it (not Perk though, we don't want any technicals)

[Meadowlark_Scal]

THE TRUTH leads us to the promised land..now kobe wants pp, so open up ray.....let ray shoot 2's also, layups..threes are not just easy..otherwise everyone would do it...besides, never live on the three.

[Who]

Kobe can't play 1-on-5 for a whole half against a team that is playing as well as the Celtics and pull out a win. He is simply not good enough.

Kobe needs two things (1) Lakers defense to step up (2) A legitimate second go-to scorer and a serviceable third scorer ... until LA gets those two things, in combination with Kobe continuing his good scoring, they are not a threat to win this game.

[celticinorlando]

best thing for the celtics is for kobe to keep chucking...heis going ot be gassed in the 4th

[celticsclay]

Kobe ball is returning. 

Bynum looks awful out there this half
