I guess Kobe has quite a bit of gas left in the tank.

    He's earning a bit of my respect. Despite all the injuries and the miles on his legs, he's playing like a top 3 player in the league. Incredible.

    Go Bulls!

    OK, then he should at least watch the Rose clip...you know, to get a refresher in game-winners. Oh, Kobe knows how, alright. The talents may be fading (or injured), though.

    A last minute collapse by the Lakers on national TV makes my Christmas wish list complete. I received everything I wanted!!! I can already see the slow burn coming from camp Kobe...

    GO BLAZERS!

    I especially liked the 8 turnovers (Kobe's on pace to lead the league in something, at least) and -7.

    KoMe should have got the ball to either BLANKY or McBob in the last minute. Both were beasting today for the Lakers. That turnover by Bryant with 15 seconds left was hilarious. He got caught in the air like a rookie, and then he got swatted by an obviously fat Luol Deng at the end of the game.

    Did Deng work at Duncan over the lockout? His arms were even soft.

    He didn't handle the trap well and turned the ball over. Then when he had 4 defenders on him he should have dumped the ball into the corner where Blake was wide open. Kobe was not clutch and the Lakers will not be even close to an elite team his year.

    The L*kers start the season with a back to back to back. Shouldn't we wait to talk about how much gas is left in Kobe's tank until after a couple of more games instead of the 3rd qrt of the first game of the year?

    Denny has XMas bills to pay, and you're trying to stifle anti-KoMe rants?

    Just the opposite, I think it was too early to start swinging off of Kobe's jock strap.
