I'm not a huge fan of Kobe. Why? I know he's an amazingly athletic and talented player. He's able to score from almost anywhere at any given time. It's always dangerous when Kobe has the ball in his hands. He puts up over 30 points a game, not to mention his almost impossible 81 point game. I think he could be getting multiple awards and be liked by many fans if he can just make that extra pass. I mean, he takes so many shots, its not even funny. I just wanna see him pass more... now that's an entertaining player. I'm not saying I'm a hater or anything, but I'm sure some of you will agree with me with this one.

The only way kobe would stop getting criticised if he leads his team to a championship and he averages 8 aspg. Now we know that isn't going to happen.

Number of shots Kobe took this season=2,173 Number of shots Lamar took this season=925Difference between the two=1,248The fact is Lamar and the rest of the team needs to start demandind the ball and hitting some shots.

People just find ways to critisize him because they either dont like him as a person, or they just think he is too arrogant.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CB4AllStar @ Jun 4 2006, 10:21 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>^Thank you. Thats one of the points that I was trying to make.</div>u cant take 3 games and say that his teamates would have been able to do that the whole season if kobe just passed the ball. where were they in the last 3 games of the series? exactley.....they were not existant. and i dont want u to say that kobe wasnt there in the 2nd half of game 7 because if he had taken alot of shots and they would have lost, he would still be critisized. just jump of his back and give him his due.
He's not my favorite player, but I definitely respect what he does on the court. Great player, no doubt.

Finally someone who knows what they're talking about, and the fact is that Lamar and Kwame started demanding the ball and hitting their shots late in the season and LA went on a tear.
He is a great player, but people can hate him for not being on their favorite team (like me), or at least hate that he's a WIFE-CHEATER!!
I like Kobe he has been my 2nd fav player in the NBA behind AI for years.Great player wish he played in the Eastern Conference so he would come to Philly twise a year to play not just once.
