After x-rays on left ankle, Kobe Bryant limping through locker room with ankle wrapped. Says Adrian Wojnarowski http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-b...-severe-left-ankle-sprain-030014942--nba.html
Yep. No joke. Kobe will probably play through pain though. I saw the game. He got hurt coming down from what should've been the game tying shot but he missed it and stayed on the ground for awhile.
I forgot the underuse of Howard and Gasol. If Kobe's out for the season, D'Antoni can now evolve a non-Kobe system. But you're right, Kobe's a tough hombre who will spring back in a couple of games.
So are Howard and Nash going to dog on Kome for sitting out, or 'underperforming', while he's hurt? I hope so.
Probably will play through it? He'll be out there for the tip of the next game. He's the evil version of Wesley.
I could see Kobe coming back if the Lakers make it to the 2nd round of the playoffs and they probably will.
The Lakers WITH Kobe aren't making the 2nd round. They won't make the playoffs if he's missing the rest of the season
The NBA will still find a way to put the Lakers in the playoffs. And lord help the team they face in the 1st round, because the league may screw them right up the ass.
Somebody call Kobe, the Lakers, and their fans a Waaa-bulance. Now they get a small taste of what it's like.
