That should ice it. 4 point game with only 3.5 seconds left. Kobe coming up big in OT with 11 points.
So Huevon, this thread has basically been a 4.5 page conversation between me and you, not sure if you noticed that, lol. Post padding FTW!!! Haha.
Kobe started dead cold for about his first 15-20 shots, and he still finished with an above average true shooting percentage. What daggers at the end.
Letting this game get away would have hurt like hell. Our 2nd unit tonight was garbage. They gave up the big lead in the 4th and, in general, played like crap most of the game. Fisher saved our asses tonight. He drew that huge charge and than hit the biggest shot of the game with that tying 3 pointer with 15 seconds left. He also hit some clutch FTs in OT for us too. Odom was huge again tonight for us as well. He hit a pair of big FTs near the end of regulation and was a monster on the boards once again. Kobe...well, he was Kobe. He scored 11 points in the OT and carried us to the victory at that point. Lost in all of this was a relatively quite 20/12/6 from Gasol.
If you look at the Yahoo! box score, they track +/- for each player. The best +/- from anyone on our bench was -2, and it was from Shannon Brown, who only played 3:10. After him, Vujacic had a -15, Powell had a -19, Farmar had a -18, and Ariza had a -22. Ouch.
amazing game... kobe came through... took him 4 quarters to wake up... fisher gave kobe another chance to win it... walton, pau, odom, ariza played solid... bench sucked
Anyone else notice Hilton Armstrong going MIA there in the 2nd half? I'm thinking he got hurt, because there's no way Sean Marks would have played nearly 31 minutes if he's healthy.
He had back spasms, Moo. What a fucking game. Kobe pushing Chris Paul was hilarious. Our bench was terrible tonight. Kobe owns OT.
Thanks for answering my question. Did they mention it during the game, cause I didn't hear it. I had music going though, so I could have easily missed it had they mentioned it.
Yeah, I believe in the 4th quarter. Dude was having a good game, too. His back flared up though and they shut him down. Sucks for him. Chris Paul fell apart at the end of the game.
